Stonehaven at Glade Springs unfolds across the mountainous landscape of West Virginia, a test of skill carved into the Appalachian terrain. Designed by George Cobb, the course presents a classic, parkland style that’s characteristic of its era, where strategic shot-making takes precedence over sheer power. Its fairways wind through mature forests, rewarding thoughtful approaches to undulating greens. Expect demanding carries over natural ravines and the ever-present challenge of elevation changes that both frame picturesque views and complicate club selection. The course favors accuracy and course management, with the golfer who best plots their way around rewarded handsomely. While not a regular stop on the professional tour circuit, Stonehaven's demanding layout has often been a favored destination for regional amateur events. Those familiar with the area can testify to the challenging and beautifully maintained course that draws serious golfers who appreciate the subtleties of design and the joys of playing amidst stunning natural beauty. Stonehaven distinguishes itself with a welcoming atmosphere, drawing a mix of resort guests and local members. While lacking the extensive lore or historic gravitas of some championship venues, it offers something perhaps more valuable: an enjoyable and challenging golf experience in a relaxed setting. The 19th hole, the Glade's restaurant, is known for its homestyle cooking with the resort's fried chicken a favorite among members and guests alike.
