The pace of play was so bad I couldn’t finish 18 holes in under 6 hours I don’t have time for that that is ridiculous. Didn’t finish the round went and told the pro staff about it didn’t offer me a rain check pretty much gave me an attitude and told me oh well. This is pretty much a country club for old people who don’t care about anybody else’s time the pro shop caters to members they don’t care about the public. I wouldn’t play this course again if you paid me, I’d rather go somewhere else the funny thing is, it’s one of the highest courses in the area. It’s not worth the money, especially if you can’t even finish.

This is the only time I’ve ever not finished a round because of pace of play. this course is for 65 and older golfers who don’t have any thing better to do. The round was on pace for a 6hrs. It is also one of the highest priced courses around. I told the staff about my experience and I got a very rude response from the pro shop attendant. I will never go back here and tell all of my buddies to just go play Huntingdon County club better course chipper and the staff is kind and friendly and the other golfers have manners.
