WINTERGREEN, Va. (Jan. 7, 2014) – For multi-sport enthusiasts who enjoy hitting the golf course with the same gusto as they approach the slopes, Wintergreen Resort has the ideal opportunity for guests who want to ski in the morning and challenge to the golf course in the afternoon.
Talk about the perfect “winter” and “green” combo – Wintergreen’s Ski & Tee offer allows guests to present a same-day lift ticket for a free round of afternoon golf at Stoney Creek Golf Course, 3,000 feet below the mountain in the scenic Rockfish Valley.
Wintergreen Resort, one of the premier mountain destinations in the United States, features a unique landscape where guests can spend the day enjoying both the snow-packed runs up on the Blue Ridge Mountains, as well as the Rees Jones-designed Stoney Creek layout down in the valley – a “one of a kind” Ski & Tee experience in the Mid-Atlantic. Indeed, many happy returns!
For skiers and snowboarders, Wintergreen offers 25 slopes and trails on 129 skiable acres with high-speed chairlifts. The resort features the region’s most extensive beginner-to-expert terrain. Fourteen slopes are lighted for night skiing and the resort’s longest run is 1.4 miles. Two terrain parks and the region’s top snow tubing park accent the winter recreational offerings.
Flowing through the fertile floor of the historic Rockfish Valley, Stoney Creek Golf Course basks beneath the Blue Ridge Mountains in a setting that is as relaxing as it is challenging. Its 27-hole combination of three nines provides a year-round escape for every level of golfer, from serious competitor to vacationing beginner. And if you don’t want to pack the clubs, the latest Callaway golf equipment is available for rental.
A golf cart is required for the Ski & Tee offer. Reserving a tee time in advance is suggested. Offer is not valid for season pass-holders.
