Stonewall Resort

Love the layout. Only poor rating is for cart paths. Lots of potholes. Love the course!!

Overall I was very pleased with my experience. The course was very busy and for the most part you keep moving. As can be expected they are working on the course in some locations and the bunker require a lot of work. This is a beautiful golf course keep up the good work.

got a 1:50 hot deal so decided to give this course a try, even though 2 hour drive. when got there found out there was a college tournament going on and the last 4 college golfers went off at 1:30. we had a 2 foursomes between us and the last college group, by the 3rd hole we had 3-5 groups either waiting on tee box or 3 on box and 2 groups in fairway. EXTREMELY slow day, I know it is late in year but fairways were burnt up in many places and greens spotted bad by folks not fixing divots. fairways were also extremely torn up by the college players and I was suprised how bad they were about replacing divots in fairway, it was litterally littered with grass divots laying everywhere. greens trampled badly but this was due to tournament traffic. I would play again if I knew I wouldn't have to follow tournament, we finished last hole little after 7:30, my last 90 yard pitch to the green I couldn"t even see the ball flying, just hit and listen for it to land, long SLOW day.

Third time playing the course. The course layout and views are great. We played after 2 days of rain and there wasn’t a dry fairway on the course, it does not drain well at all. We lost several balls on drives that plugged in the fairway and disappeared. not a great cart path only course. Trying to walk the soaked fairways was very tiring. The couple who were playing with us quit after 9 holes because they were wore out. The greens were very good and the staff was friendly. The course is fun to play when dry. Being a resort course they allow some puzzling practices, we encountered a couple who were just married riding around on a golf cart disturbing play and putting themselves in harms way. We also got behind a group of 6 on the previous time here which really slowed the pace of play. For the price they are charging, they should have better control of what takes place on the course.

I really enjoy this course, I’m a beginner so it’s a challenge and not impossible to par,. I think what a great place to golf., the resort is so beautiful, and I always see deer.

One of the most stunning courses I have ever played. Beautiful lake and Mountain View’s abound, not to mention the gorgeous fairways and greens that just meld themselves into the natural scenery. A few elevated tees and steep approaches really challenge your club selection ability. When I played the greens were really fast and challenging. I am already planning my next trip to come back and play this course.

Cart path only made for a difficult time.

So many, too many treks up and down major hills to get to the ball.

Just grueling.

We started on the back, so finishing on 9,

But 9 is nowhere near the clubhouse.

Had a LONG cart path ride to get back.

I was told after the experience that the tee sheet gets trimmed when players learn its cart path only. We understand why !

Great course, enjoyable layout and conditions, included range makes it worth the $65 we paid to tee off before noon. Don't make the mistake I did and let the course tempt you out of your game. Holes 14-17 are shorter and tighter than the previous holes meaning iron off the tee can set you up for good second shot. I was green high with 3 wood on 14 and 15 but only 5 yds off the fairway and got back to back doubles due to unforgiving lies and rough. Hit solid drive on 17 only to watch it land a few feet short to carry the native grass into second part of the split fairway, but had to take penalty to avoid damaging the amazing flora and fauna on the course. Would play again if the rate was right (under $65).

The state slogan for West Virginia is Wild and Wonderful. On my quest to golf in all 50 states, The Palmer Course at the Stonewall Resort was a delightful choice for WV. I was warmly greeted in the pro-shop and given some tips on the course, which always helps a first-time player on any course. I would also be going out alone, as this was a bit of a slow time for the resort. The course is long, however, the 6 tee selections would help with all levels of golfers. The GPS in the cart was also very helpful, detailing each hole. The lush course was in good condition. The greens ran fast but fair. A bit of crabgrass on several of the greens was disappointing, however, maintenance was out trying to get ahead of the large areas of the nasty stuff. The fairways were generous which helped my game due to the fact if I did get into the tall fescue grass in the rough, I searched in vain until I learned to just "donate" my ball to the cause. Each hole was unique and separate, making me feel cushioned in the rolling mountains of West Virginia. Truly a beautiful course. And the 19th hole was great! Tried a new beer - 35 Parks, a WV Pale Ale. I recommend the course and the beer.

I came here on their last day of the season. It’s a shame it was the last day because the course was in really good shape. The course is a Arnold Palmer Design course that opened in 2002. It is a challenge from the first tee. The course has 5 tee boxes so all levels can enjoy the course. What I noticed is people who can hit it 250 off the tee at their home course will tee it up from the blue tees here. (This is the tee for those that can hit 250 yard tee shots) However this course is no very wide so a tee shot that is off centered is going to be in the rough or possible in the high grass. Maybe the sign for the tee boxes should read blue for 250 yards straight?

On this day, the greens were still in really good shape. Smooth and rolling true to the line.

You need to play this course once just to get the feel of it. Where to hit tee shots for the better approach shots, where to land the ball on the green so your putting up hill verses down hill.

A few tee boxes had had some issues earlier in the summer, I was told the course received an abundance of rain in a short period of time followed by extremely above normal temperatures. I saw this at other courses so I can understand this explanation.

I played from the yellow tees and had a great day. I shot an 80 (i am an 8 HCCP) so i felt good about my day.

I am looking forward to getting there more next year.

When traveling thru West Virginia, you should put this course on your “must play” list.

They have a great lodge with all kinds of rooms, restaurants, spa and lots of outdoor activities for the whole family.

Raining one day and hot another when we played but still challenging. Pay attention to yardage as some holes deceiving.

Had an absolute blast playing the course. Played it for the second time this year and it did not disappoint. The only reason I gave 3 stars for course conditions was 3 greens were undergoing some work so the flag was placed in front with a white circle I guess representing the putting surface. I understand the need for greens to get some maintenance from time to time especially on mountain courses where it is a little tougher but paying full price for only 15 true greens seemed like a little bit of a rip off. Will definitely come back next year though, staff was as friendly as could be. Love the area.

I have played Stonewall a few times. Being the mountains of West Virginia the course is relatively flat. The course has one of the best layouts you will ever play. Each hole is very unique. Each hole is separate from the rest of the course which makes for a very quiet and relaxing round of golf. GPS on the carts helps a lot when playing for the first time. The course conditions were outstanding even though its been a rough summer. We had 12 in our group and all were very impressed. The practice area is one of he best. I love practicing on natural grass before the round. Can't wait to go back.
