OVERBOOKED

We were told we would have to wait 1.5 hours before a golf cart would be available. We had a tee time, however all the carts were out. The staff were friendly and did give us a rain check. That is a couple hours of life/time we won't get back.

Good bang for the buck!

This course always plays nice. A couple of holes were wet, the only drawback. Amenities food and staff are excellent. The course is challenging the pace of play was acceptable to good. You won’t regret around at this place.

Tam O’Shanter Declined Service

I called Tam O’Shanter and asked Mike in the pro shop if the 10:20 t-time was open. He said it was. I had made the reservation at 10:20 on tee off. I called Tam O’’Shanter back to confirm reservation. Now it was booked by someone else, even though I had a confirmation Number.

Next Best thing to Heaven!!

This course is getting better all the time, not to say it needs much improvement. The lady T-Boxes are a bit neglected. If you don't enjoy the layout of this course see your therapist. The fairways are always plush. Nice bunker placement. Plenty of water staring you in the face. Shrubbery, plants, and boulders abound. Everyone should make the trip to play this course at least once a year. Stopped in to get a bite to eat at the turn. Food and the hospitality is definitely above par.

Waterless - Pump down - Dry, Dry & Hard

This course use to be one of my favorites. I would drive an hour to play it. This year the course was a nightmare. Your hand hurt after trying to drive your tee into the ground. The fairways had tufts of good grass that we were willing to move our balls to play on. Just when you thought you had a nice approach shot, the ball would roll off every green. The greens were so extremely hard. Ball were bouncing several feet in the air. They were like concrete. Shame on Lenape for charging $55.00 to play on a course knowing the dilapidated conditions. I won't be back.

Nice challenging course in moderate condition

A course with some thrilling holes. The greens are in excellent condition. The fairways are reasonably well considering the dryer conditions we have been experiencing. The T-boxes are soo dry you can barely pound a tee down in them. The folks in the clubhouse are extremely kind and courteous. A real nice course for the round fees.

All Dried Out

The fairways were extremely dry and hard, much of the grass was dead. There were also dried out spots on the greens.
There was no food at the clubhouse. The excuse was COVID-19. (hot dogs came in later)
This course does have nice views of the river and Kennywood Park, however the course conditions were more relevant to me.

Average Joe

The course does have some interesting holes. There are a few with valleys and elevated greens, One of the par 3's is the most difficult you will ever try to master. #9 I would consider their signature hole; playing over a fountain/pond. It is a par 5 which most long hitters should be able to par. Many of the dog legs do require accuracy in length.

This course was overrated by media.

The pace of play was ridiculously slow. It appeared to be overbooked. You might add an hour to your overall round. I never got a chance to hit my stride or get into any kind of rhythm. It seemed like we waited five minute on every stroke of play. If you want to play the course I would recommend a weekday.

Ball placement left and right on drives is key.

This course is one you need to get familiar with.
Aiming for center fairway on drives will leave you scrambling on your approach shot. There are a couple par 3's that will excite you. The greens play relatively fast, with challenging undulations. The course length is respectable. Some fairways were dry, throwing off my iron shot.
A sensible value for a mediocre course.

This is one of my favorite courses

The course could have used a manicure. It is always in good to excellent shape. If you have a chance to play Lenape, you will not regret the challenge. I travel an hour and fifteen minutes to play a round there.

A variety pack - a little of everything.

A couple challenging dog leg par 5's.
A couple ponds to play over.
Elevated and descending par 3's.
A few holes with very difficult and fast greens.
#9 - A signature par 5 hole, playing up hill and then over the beautiful fountain pond.
This course has it all.
The only detraction is mountain views. It is flat for the most part.
