Pennsylvania Golf Courses : Fayette County
Created on September 26, 1783, from part of Westmoreland County and named in honor of the Marquis de la Fayette. In 1825 Lafayette visited the county as Albert Gallatin’s guest and addressed the public in Brownsville. Uniontown, the county seat, was laid out about 1776 as Beason’s-town and later renamed in allusion to the Federal Union. It was incorporated as a borough on April 4, 1796 and as a city on December 19, 1913. Wendell Brown and Christopher Gist settled in the area around 1752. Washington’s Fort Necessity campaign occurred in 1754, and Braddock’s army passed through the next year. Indian raids continued until 1783. Brownsville developed from a military post, Fort Burd. From 1818 to 1852 the National or Cumberland Road brought prosperity, ending when the Pennsylvania Railroad connected with Pittsburgh and bypassed Fayette. The first iron furnace was fired in 1789. Brownsville was an early boat building center, and the glass industry originally flourished in the county. The coke industry began with the first beehive oven in 1841. Connellsville coking coal had superior chemical qualities. Henry Clay Frick’s fortune began with coke in 1870. By the 1920s, beehive ovens were obsolete and much of the coke manufacturing moved to the sites of the steel mills, but beehives were revived in World War II. By 1950 the coal under the county was gone, and severe unemployment and depression began. Farms cover 23 percent of the county’s land today. Bituminous coal, mined entirely by surface operations, is still produced. Let’s see the Pennsylvania golf courses in Fayette County.

This course offers two eighteen hole courses to choose from. The Gold Course is long and challenging, and the Red Course is shorter and requires a more accurate shot placement. Both courses have wide and hilly fairways. There are five holes with water in play on the Gold Course and four holes with water in play on the Red Course.

Season: March 1 thru November 1
Pennsylvania Golf Courses Comments:
This course features water hazards coming into play on six holes. There are either sand or grass bunkers in play on every hole, so shot accuracy is essential. The sloped greens are fast, undulating, and difficult to read. A nerve-wracking hole is 15, a 574-yard, par 5, which calls for a tee shot that must avoid ponds on either side of the landing area. The second shot must carry the water hazards and a well-bunkered green awaits the approach.

This mountain course features undulating greens averaging about 5,000 square feet in size. Even though the fairways are tree lined, they still afford generous landing areas.

This resort features two outstanding eighteen hole courses. The Links Course was built amongst the Laurel Mountains and features large greens that have average speed. The terrain is naturally hilly, and the fairways are lined with large rocks and trees. There are several water hazards and sand bunkers incorporated into the course's design. The Mystic Rock Course has water coming into play on ten holes. Even though the fairways were cut out of the woods, they still afford generous landing areas. The greens are large and undulating.

Pennsylvania Golf Courses Comments:
This scenic course was built in the mountains, so expect many uneven lies. The fairways are lined by the woods, and the greens are tiered. The signature hole is 11, a 208-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot from off an elevated tee to a green that has a lake guarding its right side. Overall, water hazards (lakes) come into play on three holes.
