Bedford Spring Golf Course

I will say that the course is nice and in good shape, but ultimately, the staff and atmosphere leaves room for improvement. When we arrived, we were greeted politely by the starter and golf course staff. However, once we were inside, the attitude changed. I can't say if this is uniform of what their experience is like, or of this is just a small blip because of COVID, but the service at the restaurant and bar attached to the golf course was dismal. When we checked in for the course, we were informed that there is a $39 fee for a rider, in addition to the golf fee of $130 per person. While I was informed ahead of time that the $39 fee existed, I will say that of all of the high end courses I've ever played, this is the first course that ever actually enforced it. Not the best value, but I was fully aware of their policy, so I cannot say I wasn't informed. After checking in, we ordered food, and was told it would be ready by our tee time. When we arrived to pick up our food, I was told the food was just being boxed up, and charged for food that had not even been started. 10 minutes later I come to find out that the food had not been started, and I'm now 10 mins late for my tee time. After asking for a refund, I rush outside to hit my first tee shot, only to realize 2 mins later that they had shortchanged me by $13 dollars. Overall, the course is nice, and is in good shape. Having driven 3 hours from Philadelphia, I would have expected a better experience. If the golf and atmosphere had been better, I would have definitely been inclined to come back. After this experience, I would not spend the time, or money coming back. While it's hard to put into words how truly bad the experience was, the overall lack of professionalism and indifference to our concerns is among the worst I've seen at a high end course.

Great layout. Tough holes with.great personnel that are willing to help.Resort course that is as good or better than Grayhawk or Troon in Scottsdale.

Voted as the #1 public gold course in Pennsylvania by Golf Week Magazine, BJ was not about to miss an opportunity to golf here.First off, the views of the surrounding Allegheny Mountains and Cumberland Valley as breathtaking. The golf course has five par 5's and five par 3's, including one named "Tiny Tim". The No. 4, which is the "Volcano," is rated as the hardest hole on the entire course. On No. 10, you hit from an raised green over a valley to a two-tiered green with a high shelf in back.All in all, BJ enjoyed this course.

One of the oldest golf courses in America - built in 1895 by Spencer Oldham and then renovated in 1923 by Donald Ross of Pinehurst fame, then recently renovated again in 2007 with the opening of the resort.This is an absolutely stunning golf course - nestled magnificently in a valley with twists and turns and elevation changes. The par 3s are the most memorable - two of them are true island greens - one in front of a pond and the other at the top of a steep hill - truly round destroyers if you get it wrong.At about 120 yards a piece though they are reachable and I was lucky enough to get on both of them - sadly I missed the ( longish) birdie putts and just managed to par out.The service here is spectacular - I was - amazingly - the lone golfer on the course when I played here. The starter came out to ask if I needed anything on the 9th hole - this is links style so it is as far away from the start as you can get - I desperately needed a light as my fake zippo was not working. He went and got me a couple of match books and I was able to light my cigar. Me, the valley, a gorgeous golf course and a fine cigar. I don't think I have ever played a better round of golf this year in a better place.
