Pipestem Resort State Park

For $51 dollars well worth the play. Greens in great shape just a little slow which I expect. Only problem….bring bug spray. Gnats are everywhere. Bought bug spray at the turn back nine was much better.

Course plays long especially after number six. Felt like the full 6700 and then some from the back. I’m a 3 handicap and shot 77

I grew up playing this course and it is fun course to play but it wasn’t in good shape due to maintenance issues. The grass wasn’t well kept and the greens were spotty. I got it for $22 ish so I’m not overly disappointed, but if I would had to pay what the course charges I would’ve been disappointed.

Nice small course really a good course to dial in your short game

Course is my favorite. Played the year it opened in late 60’s when I was in high school. Staff alway friendly and helpful all way down to the grounds crew.

Some long holes and some short. Full size golf course. Def won’t feel cramped or on top of each other. I’m always worn out by the time I finish the uphill 18th. Nice course

We were staying at Pipestem State Park lodge. Yes it is dated however the staff was very friendly and professional. Had heard the course is a good mountain style layout with great views. Indeed, it is. The fairway and green conditions are still winter as I was reminded with some sparse areas yet to grow in and cold temps. The course architect, Geoffrey Cornish, seemed to favor false fronts and elevated greens. Not good for someone with poor depth perception. I would play again. It is open to the public so golf course etiquette is suspect at times.

Cheers!

Love this course, but the range is so chewed up you’re hitting in divots the whole time. Also they need to spray for the gnats. They were REALLY bad. Fairways and greens in great condition.

my favorite wv course. i usually get to play there once a year. on Friday morning i teed off first as the sun rose to a gorgeous fairway drive. the course is really in wonderful shape and the greens rolled true at a medium pace. nice change from many courses that just want to see how fast the greens can go sometimes. shot an 82 from the yellows. take two extra clubs on 18 approach...don't make my mistake...that was my only double.

Very well maintained for a state park course. I was very pleased with the course and the value for they money.

Played Pipestem for the first time, it's a hidden gem.

This was my first course in West Virginia giving me 32 States I've played in.

I'd love to play it in summer when it's at peak conditions.

First time playing, will come back.

Can’t wait to play it in the summer.

This course is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you will get. Very inconsistent. They do not like to use water when needed, that is a certainty. They have many workers for such a small outcome. The last time I played I saw 4 workers inside and around 10 outside for the course to be in such poor condition. The hitting surface on the range is laughable. Tee boxes are in rough shape, greens were hard as a rock and turning brown/cracking apart. If you happen to catch it right after some rain and they have mowed the greens, then it is playable at least. Also, food option at the course is limited to a vending machine and the pro shop has sewer smell.

The course conditions were very good, greens were appropriately fast, fairways and rough in good shape. I read some reviews from summer that said the course was burned up, this is not the case now in early fall. I was able to walk on and get a tee time on a Saturday and the pace of play was fine. No real waiting to speak of. Great deal and the views (esp. from 17) are unbeatable. Recommend highly.
