Greenway Creek Golf Course
About this course
Greenway Creek Golf Course is located in Glade Springs, Virginia, a residential community in the New River Valley region of southwestern Virginia. The course was designed by John Casey and Jeff Casey and reflects the rolling terrain and wooded character typical of the Appalachian foothill landscape. The design works with natural topography to create a routing that moves through mature forest and open meadow, taking advantage of elevation changes and water features common to the area. The course plays through a mix of tree-lined fairways and more open passages, with Greenway Creek itself factoring into the design as both a visual and strategic element across several holes. The layout emphasizes shot-making over length, with bunkering and water placement rewarding accuracy. The setting within Glade Springs means the course serves both the residential community and daily-fee players, typical of courses in the region that balance membership amenities with public access. As a regional design by the Casey family, Greenway Creek represents the solid, playable approach to course architecture common in Appalachian communities, where courses are built to suit local terrain and climate rather than to international championship standards. The course has developed a following among regional golfers and remains a fixture in the New River Valley golf landscape.

Getting there
# Getting There
Greenway Creek Golf Course sits nestled in the remote highlands of southern West Virginia, most readily accessed via a two-and-a-half-hour drive south from Charleston, West Virginia (CRW), the region's primary commercial gateway. The route winds through the Appalachian foothills, transitioning from interstate corridors into increasingly intimate mountain roads that climb toward the Glade Springs plateau, where the course commands sweeping vistas across the New River valley. For those seeking a more direct approach, smaller regional airstrips serve the area, though the drive itself - a gradual ascent through dense hardwood forest and pastoral hollows - forms an essential part of the arrival ritual, preparing the senses for the quiet seclusion and natural drama that define Greenway Creek. The final miles unfold along winding country lanes where the landscape opens to reveal fairways carved thoughtfully into the mountainside, a fitting culmination to a journey that leaves the ordinary world decidedly behind.
