Courses:

Mystic Rock
This course was the former host the PGA Tour's 84 Lumber Classic of Pennsylvania and sprawls majestically throughout Nemacolin's wooded acreage.  Designed by the legendary Pete Dye, this course promises golfers a challenge like no other.  The 6,832-yard course was three years in the making, and received top honors from Golf Magazine and Golf Digest in its opening year. The course has undergone extensive changes from its original design based on feedback from top PGA Tour players.  Mystic Rock is a golf tour de force, punctuated with giant boulders, Sahara like bunkers and wickedly undulating greens.  It has water coming into play on ten holes.  Even though the fairways are cut out of the woods, they still afford generous landing areas.  The greens are large and undulating.  The signature hole is #12, a 173-yard par 3 requiring a tee shot over water to the green. Mystic Rock has a 78.3 rating and 153 slope from the championship tees.  Now that’s a challenge for you!

The Links
was built amongst the Laurel Mountains and features large, fast greens.  The terrain is naturally hilly and the fairways are lined with large rocks and trees.  Hit one of these boulders and guess where your ball will land!  Built in 1978 and designed by Willard Rockwell and Joe Hardy, the owner and of 84 Lumber fame.  The Links, the resort’s original course, provides you with a touch of Scotland.  At 6,643 yards from the tips, reaching most of the holes is not a problem... but that's where the fun begins. Putting these problematic greens can give even the most accomplished player fits!  The Links provides a first-rate golfing experience at an affordable cost, sculpted through the Laurel Highlands where rocks and water naturally come into play on several holes. Deep woods, high rough and lakes surround the beautiful fairways with majestic views of the Alleghenies.  It is kinder than Mystic Rock, but with several water hazards and yawning sand bunkers, this track can be a big challenge.  The front nine eases you into your round and the back nine is very scenic.  Don’t let it distract you!
