"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Updated review 3 years later. I love this course! The signage was the main issue last time and it is very clear now. There is a lot of shot variety, with a good dispersion of long, short, open, and technical holes.

Great course for players who particularly want to work on tight lane throws(4, 5, 14) and shot shaping(6, 8, 11). Holes 17 and 18 are my two favorite closing holes for any course I have ever played! Also I appreciate how you start with a hole that’s a bit shorter. Gives you a perfect warmup shot for your arm. This is my new favorite course in the area! Can be punishing off the tee at times. But when you nail those shots on future rounds nothing feels more satisfying."

The course is located at Tionesta Dam, with the tee for hole 1 situated just to the right of the boat rental building. Amenities include a water fountain and restrooms available during the summer months. Providing beautiful views of the lake, the course features mostly flat terrain, making for an ea...

As temperatures climb, ice on the waters may still look solid but "solid ice" doesn't mean "safe ice."

Safety is predictable but frozen water isn't, especially when a current is moving underneath - such as on a river, a lake or a shoreline. Everyone is encouraged to avoid walking, driving, or anything else on ice. Remember: thin ice is hard to spot and easy to break.

If you have to wonder whether the ice is safe...it's probably not.
