Grand View Golf Club is an outstanding accomplishment of enduring beauty. One must see it to really believe it…one must play it to truly enjoy it! Carved out of a 160 acre mature woodland hilltop, Grand View offers spectacular panoramic views overlooking a wide expanse of the Mon Valley… including the Edgar Thompson facility, the first and last major steel mill in Western Pennsylvania .
This distinctive, 18 hole, Par 70, 6,111 yard layout gracefully winds its way along tree-lined fairways and undulating greens atop Matta’s Hill. Each hole at Grand View presents an interesting challenge, highlighted by its unique topography and variation of terrain. The general flow and dynamics of the course layout are accented by level target areas and a number of elevation changes from tee to green that are specifically designed to influence club selection and precise shot-making abilities. Bent grass greens and tees have been built in strict compliance to USGA specifications and standards. A driving range and 4,100 sq. ft. putting green combine to offer a rewarding golf experience.
