The Resort at Glade Springs

I was on my way through WV and wanted to stop for 18 since I was going to be near Glade but had seen where they had recently punched the greens at Stonehaven. I was hesitant but after a quick chat with Matt F, he assured me that they were in good condition along with the rest of course and wow, he was was not wrong. I couldn’t tell the first green had even been punched, it felt like it was a little slower due to recent rain and not aerification. I got lucky and was paired with two awesome locals who had a lot of course and local knowledge so it made for a great round. All in all great shape! I would have never believed I was there 2 weeks post aerification and heavy rain.

Great course. Had the place to myself it felt like. No pace issues, played at my own steady pace the whole 18. Only complaint about this place is lack of driving range access and lack of concessions or drinks to buy at turn or elsewhere.

Requires every shot but can be a very rewarding track.

Excellent conditions with large, receptive greens, tough layout with many blind shots, local knowledge is very helpful. Worth its reputation as #5 in the state.

All in all it was it nice round with good weather. Although it would have been nice to of had a heads up that the greens had been punched 7 days ago. Might try it again in a few weeks after greens heal up.

I recommend calling the clubhouse and asking about the greens b4 you pay to play in the next 2 weeks, cause they wont bring it up to ya in conversation

Unique course in the Glade Spring resort. Very picturesque. Not much of a pro shop to get anything. Pro Shop attendant and starter were very friendly and courteous. Little more forgiving than the Woodhaven course that we played the previous day. Would definitely go back to play if I am in the area again

What a great experience as this was the first for the guys that I travel with to play golf in different states. Three of us were from Ohio and one from Virginia. The course was in excellent shape and the views on various holes were spectacular. If we get back to playing in WV again, this would definitely a course that I would play again.

The only downside was that they did not have any drinks in the proshop or have a grille.

I have golfed since 1969 and this is by far the best course I have ever played. Not only that it was the cheapest I have ever payed for a quality course and the best part was my wife and I had the whole course to ourselves. Not a soul on it but us. I will definitely play it again when I am in that neck of the woods.

Other than a couple spots of ground under repair the course is in phenomenal shape for early April. I was surprised to see how much excellent it was.

The course is a hidden gem for the price. The course has a few wet spots but that’s to be expected this time of year. It has some holes that require shot placement but is fairly forgiving overall. The only thing this course lacks is a clubhouse with food and drinks.

After committing to play, I find that it is "cart path only" when I arrive at the course. This course is quite hilly and involves a lot of uphill and downhill walking even if you hit the fairway every time.

Some holes could've easily accommodated cart travel. Other holes had moist areas -- those holes could be "cart path only." So the two of us, 82 and 87 year old guys got quite a workout. But the kicker is that, evidently, that cart path only rule only applies to those of us who are not property owners. The threesome behind us were using self-owned carts and were NOT adhering to "cart path only." The takeaway? -- check beforehand as to the course conditions. I didn't. BTW.....the course is NOT walkable.

Every tee shot is worthy of a post card. Had the course to myself. Perfect day.

Id recommend a bright colored ball in the fall. Lost lots of balls off the edge of the fairway.

First and foremost, this is the Dr Seuss of golf courses. It will have you shaking your head more times than not and you’ll likely need a tour guide the first time you play it. But with that being said, I freaking love it here! The course is always in amazing shape from the greens to the tee boxes, and the fairways are plush enough to make you feel guilty for every divot you take. The first 2 holes are just easy enough to tease you into thinking that you’re going to have a laid back, casual round and then hole 3 brings you back to reality just in time for hole 4 to leave your scratching your head as soon as you step on the tee box. And it doesn’t stop there. There are plenty of notable holes you’ll want to grab a picture of just because you can’t put them into words and do them justice. Holes 8 and 18 will be the true tests to see if you snap a club or two. I know all of this seems overwhelming and not like a fun round but I promise you it’s an absolute blast to experience. Grab some buddies or get paired up with some locals and just enjoy everything Woodhaven has to offer. The clubhouse staff is always awesome and Matt F. is always a great host for the round. It may not be for the faint hearted or new beginners, but I guarantee it will be memorable and you’ll want to bring others just for the experience!

We enjoyed our round. We played there in 2021. It was fun to know where to hit it! We will be back !!
