Bob O'Connor Golf Course

About Bob O'Connor Golf Course

This municipal gem sits in Schenley Park and delivers surprisingly solid golf for the price point. The routing takes advantage of Pittsburgh's rolling terrain, with elevation changes that add character to what could have been a flat parkland slog. You'll find yourself hitting uphill and downhill lies throughout the round, and the mature tree-lined fairways frame shots nicely while punishing wayward drives. The greens are typically in decent shape for a busy public track, though they can get beaten up during peak summer months. The real appeal here is the value proposition and walkability – you can actually hoof it around this course without feeling like you need supplemental oxygen, which is saying something in Pittsburgh. The 4.2 Google rating from over 200 reviews tells the story: it's not going to wow anyone, but it consistently delivers a solid round of golf without breaking the bank. If you're looking for a reliable municipal option that won't embarrass you when you bring out-of-town guests, Bob O'Connor fits the bill perfectly.
