Golfers can now directly book tee times at Cacapon, Canaan Valley, Pipestem and Twin Falls through the GolfNow website and app.
SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va, — Gov. Jim Justice announced today that golfers are now able to book tee times at West Virginia state park courses in advance thanks to a new partnership with NBC Sports Next and GolfNow.
State Park golf courses participating in this exciting new partnership include Cacapon Resort State Park’s 18-hole Robert Trent Jones course in Berkeley Springs, Canaan Valley Resort State Park’s 18-hole Geoffrey Cornish course in Davis, Pipestem Resort State Park’s 18-hole Geoffrey Cornish course near Princeton and Twin Falls Resort State Park’s 18-hole Geoffrey Cornish designed course in Mullens.
“Our state parks are a treasure and I’m excited to announce this partnership with GolfNow because it means even more people will get to come and experience all of the beauty and goodness our great state has to offer,” said Gov. Jim Justice. “Since day one, investing in our West Virginia State Parks has been a priority for my administration and I want to thank our Tourism and DNR teams for helping make our parks the best they can be.”
As part of the partnership between State Parks and GolfNow, golfers will now be able to directly book tee times at Cacapon, Canaan Valley, Pipestem and Twin Falls through the GolfNow website and app. In the past, golfers had to call the parks or book their tee time in person.
“Thanks to the leadership and support of Gov. Justice and forward-thinking partnerships like this, our state parks have dramatically improved to enhance the experience of the more than 8 million people who visit each year,” said Brett McMillion, director of the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources, which manages the state parks system.
