The golf course is a fair challenge for all skill levels with elevated and undulated green complexes. Nestled in the heart of Western Pennsylvania, Park Hills has provided host as a private club for many years. A recent change to semi-private has opened access to the local area which has been well received.Here at Park Hills Golf Club we pride ourselves on the high quality of magnificent golf, superb amenities and outstanding service that we offer our valued customers. We have worked hard over the years to become a staple of the community, and in the process we have earned recognition as one of the region’s premier golf experiences.The idea for a community based club on the outskirts of Altoona first came to light in the early 1920’s. The original idea called for the club to be built and turned over to the city of Altoona to be operated for the common good of the entire city.With the Depression rolling across the country, a few staunch supporters of the club decided to build the golf course and maintain it for members and guests alike. This decision to continue f...orward by building and maintaining the club and the course has allowed the facility to be a landmark in the Altoona area.As one can imagine, the golf course has gone through several changes though the years and all of these changes have led us to our current layout and fine conditions.
