My girlfriend and I played July of this year (2009)- beautiful shape due to the rain, but manicured to the nines. It is tough and the pro shop staff were kind enough to give us some inside info on distances and landing areas on the several I must say blind holes and hazard areas. The rates are very reasonable for the caliber of this course, the staff most friendly and we got through in four hours! Only complaint my girlfriend had were lack of restroom facilities. For me I would say the score card should maybe contain a detailed layout map especially due to the several blind and hidden suprises the course has...especially for the first timers. Otherwise a hidden gem that all golfers passing through should play.

Played Whispering Woods with my foursome mid-July 2009. The course is absolutely amazing. A very good test from the Blues ! The course is very well groomed and has some spectacular scenery. I have played Peak n' Peek extensively over the years and Whispering Woods makes the Peak's Upper Course look flat!

The course is an exceptional value !

The course is amazing and the value is great. It is the best test of golf within 100 miles outside of Thunder Hill. The Par 4 number 8 is absolutely ridiculous. Also, the 15th is one of the toughest par 5 challenges you will find. Number 9 can be a disaster if the pin is tucked on the front slope leaving you to almost position yourself short of the green. Eighteen is a good hole but I would say number 8 is definitely the biggest challenge here.

Rod Lind said on January 4, 2009:

I hope this architect continues in the northwestern Pa. southwestern NY area.

Unfortunately, the architect died shortly before Whispering Woods even opened.

I had to respond to this review since I played this course on Nov. 5, 2008. We happen to have a week of nice weather and WW had a great deal going for the fall so I went down for the day with 3 of my golf buddies. I got to tell ya...this course is outstanding! The pictures do not lie and you could never tell that it is only a couple of years old. I live closer to the Peek and Peak resort where the PGA plays but will be passing it up for this one from now on when I decide to make a day of it. I hope this architect continues in the northwestern Pa. southwestern NY area. It felt like I was on vacation playing a top tier course.
