About
Nestled atop beautiful Cresson Mountain in the Laurel Highlands of West Central Pennsylvania. Founded in 1923 as a 9 hole layout, the Summit Country Club would eventually be expanded into an 18 hole championship golf course in the year 1968. Beautifully incorporating holes from the original 9 hole layout into the newly designed "back 9", Ed Ault and his staff created a truly timeless and classically designed golf course for golfers with all ability level to enjoy. To this day, the golf course is renown for its overall excellent condition. Another unmistakable and lasting aspect of the Summit Country Club is the unparalleled character of the greens.
With its extensive use of the natural contours of the surrounding mountain, the Summit Country Club has long been recognized to contain some of the most difficult and challenging, but yet most rewarding golf holes in the entire state of Pennsylvania.
