| - While still under construction, the golf related facilities at Cool Springs Sports Complex are up and running. CSSC features a very nice two-tiered driving range that wraps around and above the on-site dining facility, Fairway Grille. Also available is an 18-hole miniature golf course, and a short-game practice area with putting greens.
The day I visited the facility, it was hot, muggy, and rainy, but I was able to get a spot in one of the covered bays of the driving range. ($12) for a little over 100 range balls. The range itself is fully turfed with light green "greens" complete with distance coordinated flags, dark green turf everywhere else and a central pond with a fountain.
The range overall is aesthetically pleasing and perfectly suitable for getting in some practice strokes. When I have a chance to explore the mini golf course and other practice facilities, I may adjust my rating accordingly, but with what appears to be a void in driving ranges in the Pittsburgh area, you could do a whole lot worse than CSSC.
According to the website, additional indoor multi-sport complexes should be complete by the end of the year.
