Located just a short drive East from Pittsburgh In Ebensburg, today’s feature course, Ebensburg Country Club, has a history that’s almost as interesting as the course itself. Originally founded as a 9-hole golf club in the early 1920s, it wasn’t until nearly 80 years later in the year 2000 that the second nine opened – creating a one-of-a-kind championship layout that has since become one of the gems of the Keystone State. Now, with 18 years of maturity under its belt as a full 18-hole course, there has never been a better time to take on this exceptional layout.

Along with some of the finest views and vistas in Cambria County, the course at Ebensburg Country Club offers up 18 challenging holes designed to test every club in your bag. Playing just short of 6,500 yards from the back set of tees, the several lengthy par-5s – with two of the four playing over 530 yards – require a strong and lengthy tee shot to set yourself up to hit the green in regulation. There is water on the course that you’ll want to avoid, but the course’s many cleverly placed sand bunkers, with many standing guard like soldiers around the course’s greens, are perhaps a bigger foe – and offer no guarantee of an easy up and down.

The greens at Ebensburg, fairly small and rounded (especially on the front nine) offer the course’s final layer of challenge thanks to their deceptive undulation and speedy nature. You’ll need a steady hand and a keen eye to avoid multiple three puts here – so be sure to spend some time warming up on the huge practice green near the clubhouse.

Speaking of practice green, Ebensburg Country Club also makes it easy to work on every part of your game thanks to their exceptional practice area. Along with the putting green and an oversized practice bunker, you’ll also find a 400-yard grass driving range that can accommodate even the longest hitters. With the many challenges the course sports, you’ll do well to spend as much time as possible here before your round begins.

From the gently rolling fairways to the unbeatable atmosphere, everything about Ebensburg Country Club is truly one-of-a-kind. Don’t miss your chance to play – reserve your round now.
