Mediocre
This used to be an excellent course when it was a private club , the condition is poor , the greens and tees were good but the rest of the course was disappointing , rough had a lot of holes in it and there were weeds throughout the layout. The practice area is awesome a huge tee and two short game areas , its a shame that they can't keep the course up because this is a well designed golf course.
Best in Pittsburgh area
Fantastic course that I have played over 10 times since it opened in 2002. Fairways were in excellent conditions except for the golfers who do not replace their divots, but the star of the course in layout and greens. Greens were immaculate with a very ball marks that were not fixed, but some golfers just don't care. Bunkers were firm but easy to hit out of. A few footprints in bunkers were noticed, but golfers need to rake the bunkers. Please play this course if you live within 2 hours of this course. You will not be disappointed.
Great course but need to work on the bunkers
I always wanted to play this course but never got the chance to play it. So I treated myself for my 30th birthday and went out. Great course, fast but fair greens. Played from the whites and it was a good challenge...can't wait to go back and play from the blues or championship tees.
Oh downside is the bunkers. They aren't consistent. One could be field with what my buddy and I called, "kids play sand." The next one could be hard/dirt like sand. And some are filled in with grass. I know bunkers are hazards but just wish they were a little more consistent.
Overall, great course. Plus...Monday and Tuesday's, $39 gets you golf with a cart, hotdog and fountain drink at the turn. Great deal!!
Hidden Gem
Fairways and greens were excellent.
They are losing some of the bunkers.
I enjoy this course very much because it rewards good play and penalizes poor decisions.
Best public course in the Pittsburgh area. I would play here more often if it were easier to drive to.
A gem worth looking for!
Totteridge was designed by Rees Jones and was originally opened as a private club. It has now opened to the public within the last few years and is managed by Foresight Golf. I have been wanting to play this course for a few years, as I usually enjoy Rees Jones designs, but live in Florida. I go back to PA several days a month to assist in elder-care matters with my parents.
I got the chance to play the course on 6/29/15 after several days and a few inches of rain. Since my parents live 40 miles from the course, I called to ask about availability to play and was encouraged to come out. When I got out there, all of the staff were friendly and welcoming and they had a $39 rate for Monday that included a soft drink and hot dog at the turn. Rates run from $39-$57 and they do have senior rates (60-69) and super senior rates for golfers over 70.
I played the course solo as the group getting ready to approach the first tee asked me to go ahead of them, and played the 18 holes from the Blue Tees which measure 6,659 yards. There are five sets of tees ranging from 5,307 yards to 7,154 yards. Course and slope ratings run from 66.4/122 to 75.8/139 for men and 72.4/129 to 79.1/143 for women.
I teed off about 1:15PM and was finished at 5:08PM on a day that seemed pretty busy as there were a lot of cars in the parking lot. While I waited on a few shots on the group in front of me, I was just relaxing and enjoying the beautiful scenery and elevation changes.
While I had never played the course before, I did have a Sky Caddie with me to help me with distances and hazards. I only remember two blind shots on the course as the rest of the course featured elevation changes and the holes and landing areas were mostly visible from the tees and approach shots.
The greens were in excellent shape and putted very true and steady. Teeing areas seemed a little spongy since there had been so much rain in the several days ahead of play. In spite of the large amount of water, the course seemed to drain well enough that workers were out there mowing and working on the tees and fairways. I also noticed that tee shots still bounced in fairways in spite of the extensive amount of rain the course had received in the prior couple days.
According to the staff person I talked to, there are 80 traps on the course and many of them had been washed out or looked like they were being allowed to grow over. This did create a little confusion as I was unsure if some of the traps were washed out, were ground under repair, or what. I played everything down. The staffer I talked to indicated that they were reducing the number of traps from 80 to 30 something because of the extensive maintenance required and I believe to reduce costs.
With the exception of the condition of the traps, Totteridge's only disadvantage is that it is literally located in the middle of farm country and not well marked to get there. It is 3.6 miles south of Route 22 on Hannastown Road and easy to find.
I really enjoyed the course in spite of the course being so soggy and can't wait to go back and play it again when the course is dry.
Long and narrow, but fun!
Great conditioning of fairways and greens, but the cart path manager should be whipped!
Almost all drives required an accurate placement, or there was trouble due to choke points. Greens were excellent, and the course really drains well after a big rain, as it did a day before we played here.
Very generous tees for the ladies, and really helped my wife stay "in the game"!
Visually an excellent course, and some holes were very rewarding! A good value, we paid $115 for two with cart and range balls.
This is a true championship course, so bring your A game!
We will play here again!
Acidental Treasure.
Found Totterridge by accident, what a great surprise. Friendly staff, beautiful layout, great course conditions. Will definitely go back.
Great links design!
This is the best public course in Pittsburgh when you consider design, condition, and price. This was meant to be private I was told but converted when the homesites didn't sell. Rees Jones did a great job on this one. 7,000+ from the tips is no joke either.
