We played Tom’s Run I’m going to say it is a good course, i think the price is fair. I don’t think that Tom’s Run is significantly better (or any better) than chestnut. Greens= nice, very true, soft and held most shots into the green, good speed. It’s odd, the mower to cut the collars/fringe/grass adjoining the green must be broken. Very irregular from green to green, looks that it hasn’t been done in weeks , some areas have a 2 ft cut other parts are like 6 inches. Not indicative of a higher end track. Traps are not good as others mentioned in other reviews, the sandtrap machine was in there mixing it up in the past few days, you can mix it all you want, what they need is sand. One of my partners blew 4 sand shots over the green. Conditions were damp, fairway is thicker and spongier than other courses in the area, little roll on an early august day. Signs of burnt fairways were abundant, dead grass all over but playing from those areas did NOT seem to be a problem. Geese on and around the clubhouse holes, Lots of goose poop, lots. Cart was excellent, shop was fine, pay your fee and move on. Saw the beverage girl once and the snack shack was not open . Beer was $3 very fair, cold and refreshing. We went 9 holes without seeing another group in front of us, ran into a scramble event on the back 9, slow play from that point in. Played in 3:44. Pretty good An enjoyable day, would play again, not sure i would rave to friends that it is a must play. Some great views of the Laurel mountains on the front 9

Played at Tom's Run here a few months back....finally. Have stayed at the Hampton Inn before but wasn't golf season. The views here are beautiful as this course is tucked in-between a couple of mountain ridges. Immaculate is the word for this course. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in great shape! Saw some deer and groundhogs as well along the way so that was nice bonus. There was one hole on front 9 (don't remember #...maybe 7?) you have to stop the cart and walk up and across a bridge to get to Tee Box...it could use some attention as it was pretty slick going across the wet bridge. Other than that, this place is a must play! We have family living in Blairsville now so I will for sure book tee times when I visit out here!

This was my #1 choice of wedding venue out of all of the ones I’ve toured (I’m a wedding planner), so when it was open for our New Year’s Eve date, I was shocked. My husband and our parents all agreed, so we booked it, and could not be any happier with our choice. The stunning bar and gorgeous ballroom, paired with the Hampton Inn located immediately next door are the biggest selling points. Besides the features of the property itself, the coordinator, Amy, is phenomenal. She made us feel like we were the only clients she was working with anytime we had a question or meeting. She responds very quickly, which I greatly appreciated. The reception itself, as far as I know, went off without a hitch and we’ve had SO many compliments on the food. Everything was absolutely delicious. It rained the entire time we took pictures, so we didn’t get any on the golf course, but the front awning area made a pretty backdrop and there are very nice spaces inside for photos as well. I have heard no negative comments and I have nothing bad to say about this venue. If you don’t mind that it’s not in the city, I highly, highly recommend checking it out.

Chestnut Ridge is one of the best places you can have a wedding outside of Pittsburgh. I love photographing weddings here. It can hold over 300 guests and every room is beautiful and luxurious. The ballroom offers a gorgeous view of the mountains and is positioned so that you and your guests can enjoy brilliant sunsets over the golf course, and there is always plenty of room for dancing. The golf course provides amazing photo opportunities, and even if there is rain, the bar area is stunning for photos with its white columns, floor to ceiling windows, and white marble floors.

Beautiful facility to have in the area, right by the highway, just a couple miles out of downtown, & fantastic room option for events/parties. I use them for professional events/conferences/banquets frequently and will continue with them in the future. The local eateries inside are tastey, convenient and quality for comfort food or a nice dinner!
