What are the best golf courses in West Virginia?

Course Reviews

I’m planning a golfing trip to West Virginia and I’m curious about which courses are considered the best. I’ve heard a lot about the scenic views and unique challenges of the local courses.

Here are a few things I’d love to know:

  • Top Rated Courses: What have been your favorites and why?
  • Public vs Private: Are there any hidden gems that are open to the public?
  • Facilities: What type of amenities should I expect?
  • Pricing: Any insight into the cost of greens fees?

I’m specifically looking for places that offer a great experience, not just a round of golf. Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!

The Greenbrier is definitely one of the top golf courses in West Virginia! It’s a classic, with tons of history and challenging holes. Can’t beat the scenery either!

Anyone tried the course at the Resort at Glade Springs? I hear good things about it. Just curious how it stacks up against the others mentioned here.

I’ve played a lot of courses in WV, but my favorite has to be Canaan Valley Resort. It offers both great golf and awesome scenic views.

Canaan Valley is special! The elevation changes make it really unique and challenging. Plus, it’s just a fun area to explore for a weekend.

Based on rankings, the Pete Dye Golf Club often comes up as one of the best. Has anyone here played it? What’s the experience like?

It really is top-notch! The layout is both tricky and beautiful. It requires some strategy but is incredibly rewarding!

I’m more of a casual golfer. Can anyone suggest a nice course that’s less intense but still fun? Something for a laid-back day out.

Try the course at the West Virginia State Park! It’s forgiving and has a nice, relaxed atmosphere.

I’m surprised no one mentioned Oglebay Park! It’s affordable and has a good variety of holes that keep it interesting. A hidden gem in the state!

Oglebay always gets overshadowed, but it really does deserve more recognition. Great for a family day too!

Anyone ever have a laughable moment on the course? I once hit a ball and it landed in someone’s drink! Talk about a way to earn a free round!

I recently played at The Greenbrier and was blown away by its beauty. The course blends perfectly with the stunning landscape, and every hole offers a unique challenge!

Absolutely! The Greenbrier is a classic. Have you tried the Old White TPC course there? It’s known for its challenging layout too.
