Olde Stonewall
Ellwood City, Pennsylvania- Address1495 Mercer Rd, Ellwood City, PA 16117, USA
First opened for play in 1999, the course at Old Stonewall Golf Club is a joint Hurdzan/Fry production, where fairways are set out in two distinct circuits: a typical low country front nine and a more undulating back nine that exhibits a number of spectacular elevation changes.
Former owner Rick Hvizdak developed the course, along with the somewhat surreal castle-themed restaurant/clubhouse that adjoins it, before selling the complete facility on to Sewickley entrepreneur Joe Nocito in 2012.
Level lies are hard to come by on a course that’s laid out on such rugged terrain, where enormous limestone blocks are found all over the place; lining cart paths, supporting elevated tee boxes and underpinning hillside greensites.
The sensational 474-yard 16th is undoubtedly the signature hole on the property, playing as it does to a fairway that lies 80 feet below an elevated tee position, which allows the average golfer to experience a satisfying five second hang time for their 300+ yard drive. It’s always nice to feel like a pro out on the course, even if it’s just for one shot.
