Across from one of the world’s great golf courses
The Oakmont Inn is just a wedge shot away from Oakmont Country Club, which has played host to more than a dozen national golf championships. Renowned for its lightning-fast greens and challenging bunkers, Oakmont will once again be the site of the U.S. Open in 2025.
The charming village at Oakmont
One of western Pennsylvania’s most charming communities, the village of Oakmont features tree-lined streets that are a great place for a relaxing stroll. Explore its abundance of unique shops, restaurants, cafes, and salons — and even take in a movie at Oakmont’s vintage theater.
