Our Golf Course
Background:
At Butler's, we have 36 well-maintained and challenging holes, with the Woodside 18 and the Lakeside 18. We're in Elizabeth Township, Allegheny County, and Butler is a family name -- John Butler opened the original 18 in 1928, and the course continues with 3rd and 4th generation ownership. 9 additional holes opened in 1963, and our 4th nine opened on June 22, 2000 -- see construction photos or more about our history.
