Berry Hills Country Club

About this course
Berry Hills Country Club sits in the hills east of Charleston, West Virginia, occupying rolling terrain characteristic of the Appalachian foothills. The course was designed by Bill Gordon, a regional architect active in the mid-twentieth century who worked primarily across West Virginia and neighboring states. Gordon's designs typically emphasize strategic use of natural topography, and Berry Hills follows that pattern with elevation changes that influence club selection and shot placement throughout the round. The routing moves across varied terrain, with several holes playing uphill or downhill and others occupying gentler ground in the valleys. The property offers views of the surrounding wooded hills, and mature trees line many fairways, framing landing areas and requiring accuracy from the tee. Greens are generally moderate in size with subtle contours, and bunkering is traditional in style, guarding approaches and greenside areas without excessive visual intimidation. Berry Hills serves as a private club for the Charleston area and has hosted regional amateur competitions over the decades. The membership reflects the local business and professional community, and the club maintains a traditional country club atmosphere with dining and social facilities complementing the golf course. The layout provides a solid test for members familiar with its nuances while remaining accessible to guests adjusting to the terrain and elevation shifts that define golf in this part of West Virginia.
