Elk Valley is on the southwest side of Erie, off I-90 at Avonia, or I-79 at West Road. Very enjoyable layout with a nice mix of challenging, tight holes and open, great driving holes over rolling hills with water in play on almost half the holes. It can play to 6,500 yards from the blue tees, we play from the white tees at 6,119 yards, 67.7/106, and it's a fair challenge. Scenic layout, nothing but nature bordering the holes, good risk/reward holes with some birdie opportunities. Very good value for the quality of the course, we always play here when traveling to the Erie area. Conditioning is not always top notch, but then again neither are the rates.
