Beautifully maintained course. Challenging but not unfair. Very friendly staff. Reasonable prices. This will definitely be a go-to course for me going forward!

If looking for a challenging round at a fair price, Quicksilver is a fit for you.
There are plenty of opportunities to score or post a big number if not on your game.
The course itself on July 2nd, 2025 was in very good shape considering all the rain the past few weeks. There were a few wet spots in low areas. The greens were a bit soft, but it made holding approach shots easier, and you need all the help you can get with the undulation on them.
The greens rolled very well.
Service in the pro shop, by the starter, and in the pub were all good.
However, one worker decided to drive right past our group on a large tractor mower as we were teeing off on 15 and never stopped the entire time.
One complaint/suggestion I have is to have a tee option of about 6,000 yards. Going from 6540 for the white tees all the way down to under 5500 yards for the senior tees is way too much of a gap. As some one in their mid 50’s I’m not ready to play the senior tees, but also not excited about 555-580 yard par 5’s or needing a hybrid to reach some of the longer par 4’s more than 2-3 times in a round.
Building new tee boxes can be expensive. Just update your score card and do a couple of combo tee options. Many private clubs and resort courses do this and it works well.
It would also be nice to have some water and a restroom or two on the course.

Originally from the area and back on a visit. Played with a friend from Texas. Lush fairways and greens. Very nice layout with great approach views of the clubhouse. Staff very friendly. Pace of play for a Saturday morning was good. This is a country club level course open to the public. Take advantage to try it out.

Quicksilver is a fun layout. Open and friendly off the tee, but uneven second shots and fast, smooth greens can make it difficult. First time playing, very difficult with blind tee shots and not knowing what greens look like. Pace of play was good on a Monday morning. Course is terrific condition, especially the greens. Hope to be back soon.

Great quality course in the greater Pittsburgh area. A lot of public courses in the Pittsburgh area are far from downtown and this one was one of the closest which was a plus. The course was in great condition which offered forgiveness off the tee boxes, lots of elevation changes, well cut fairways and rough, and very fast greens. Excellent all around, and at a reasonable price. My only issue which bumped this review down to 4 stars was the attitude the pro shop and starter had with me walking. They were concerned with pace of play. I am a fit man in my 20s are prefer to walk. I play fast and understand etiquette and assured them of this. I was, indeed, the fastest player in my group that day. Modern American golf has stooped so low that now riding is the standard course of play, not the upgrade. A fit man in his 20s is now met with hesitation when informing a course they plan to walk. I basically had to sell to the course I was ‘up to the challenge.’ Golf is meant to be walked if able bodied. Also, tee times are 8 minutes apart which lead to a very backed up course. Tee times need to be 10-12 minutes apart. Anything less is just greedy by the club management. Anyways, beautiful course. Hats off the superintendent and grounds crew.
