Fans of old-school architecture (i.e., you appreciate a “Volcano” par-3, a donut bunker and a tipped-out yardage of just 6,785 yards) will love this design about two hours east of Pittsburgh. The course’s design roots, strengthened by a Ron Forse restoration five years ago, extend back more than a century with multiple Hall of Famers leaving their stamps. Tillie was especially fond of the short par-3 14th (“Tiny Tim”) with distinctive mounding left of the green. It’s one of a fivesome of standout short one-shotters, including the much tougher Volcano at the 4th. Max fee: $169 (Photo: Courtesy of Omni Bedford Springs Resort)
