Great day of golf

The course for this time of year was in great shape. We all enjoyed the round even though it was cart path only. Started was very friendly but the nasty person in the pro shop is a very rude person I had 2 bad dealings with him but love the course.

Absolutely loved this course!!!

My brother and I played this course for our burthday. Ive been waiting to try it for about 2 years. Bella Vista did not let down. What a beautiful complex. The course is challenging but absolutely gorgeous. Every hole is different but fun in its own way. There are a couple water holes that are just beautiful. Two of the par 3s are probably the best Par 3s I have ever played on. The finishing hole is just amazing.
I know that i have said beautiful, gorgeous, and amazing but this course truly is. I highly recommend playing here. The staff was very friendly. I truly can not say enough about Bella Vista. I would will be going back many times.

Fantastic layout however could use work

Love coming to Bellavista usually play it twice a year. I think it has one of the best layouts in Pennsylvania for a public course. However the bunkers really need work. Also I think the front 9 should be the back 9 and the back 9 should be the front.

Rushed Rounds

I would like to say I enjoyed my day of golf but frankly I did not. The tee times were too close together and we alternated between waiting for the people in front of us and getting hit up on by the people behind us. The greens had also been aerated recently and they were very bumpy. Several of the bunkers had no sand, just dirt and rocks. If I had time to relax and enjoy my game I might have felt differently about the course. It was challenging and I like a challenging course. But not today.

Exceeded expectstions

First time playing, had heard it’s an ‘easy’ course. While it was relatively straightforward the conditions were excellent and the greens were rolling pure. In fact some of the better greens I’ve played in a bit. Questionable pace at times on a Saturday afternoon, we were paired with a twosome and the one guy legitimately could not hit the ball. Looked like his first time. They did well to pick up and drop further up the hole, but slight warning that you get a wide mix of skill here

Great first impression, great layout

My first time playing the course. The pace of play for a Wednesday afternoon was a bit slow but that may have been a testament to the course since it was really crowded. Must be a local favorite. It is about an hour away from me but I feel it was worth the drive. We completed the round in 4.5 but we waited at every hole. Definitely worth it though. Would play again.

Staff assistance

Pleased with staff I called and asked to be picked up on 5th hole and taken back to vehicle which they happily and promptly did with a pleasant and can do attitude. Left me with a good feeling about them and the course. 5 stars!
