Nittany Country Club

Nittany Country Club is a historic nine-hole golf course located in Mingoville, Pennsylvania, founded in 1895. Originally established as the Nittany Rod & Gun Club, it sits at the base of mountains near the former Hecla Furnace, offering serene surroundings isolated from industrial noise and traffic. The course features beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and is characterized by its challenging postage-stamp greens that demand precision play. The landscape maintains the natural majesty that attracted early members to the area's trout streams and wildlife. The clubhouse, rebuilt after a fire destroyed the original 1897 structure, now serves as a full facility with dining, meeting spaces, locker rooms, and a pro shop, hosting various events and celebrations. The course remains a member-focused venue emphasizing both golf and club community activities.
