WINTERGREEN, Va. (April 12, 2012) – If you’re looking for majestic mountain golf, look no further than Wintergreen Resort, with its two distinct courses providing remarkable variety.
Devils Knob offers golf on high – in fact, at an elevation of 3,850 feet, this mountaintop design is the highest in the state (and ranked among the highest, too). The layout provides all the shot-making and visual thrills you’d expect given its dramatic setting, with 50-mile views of the incomparable Blue Ridge Mountains.
Below, in the historic Rockfish Valley, Rees Jones’ 27-hole Stoney Creek wends gracefully through a serenely beautiful landscape, using the mountains as backdrop. The combined effect is like playing golf in two different parts of the state
Now, there are two great ways to experience golf season at Wintergreen Resort.
