Surrounded by the hills of West Virginia, the Woodhaven Course at Glade Springs Village looks out across the Glade Creek Gorge. It has a unique design with two distinct nine-hole loops, one that overlooks the gorge and tumbles across a series of swales and one that winds through a narrow valley, twisting through mature forests filled with maple, beech, hickory, and oak trees. Natural rock gardens and colorful rhododendrons add even more beauty to the course. One of the toughest holes is the par-4 eighth, which calls for a carry over a ravine. Though the playing area is wide, the hole sharply doglegs left and features a difficult second shot no matter how much you can cut off the tee.

Sgood courses, mysterious thefts

Last year one of our 16 had a new box of balls stolen from his gear over night. This year my hundred dollar sunglasses were missing overnight from my gear. Besides looking in lost and found, the staff did nothing.
Courses are great and diverse. Challengibg but dont trust staff anymore

Phenomenal new course for us

As a golf course reviewer, I rated this course as 9 1/2. The layout, condition, topography and wonderfully designed holes provided a memorable experience. The only hole I critiqued negatively was number eight. It should have an area of fairway below the green to provide a safety net for less advanced golfers.
The gentleman who checked us in was more cordial as we prepared for a second 18 than he had been upon our arrival at 8:15 in the morning when we sensed that we were interrupting his morning rituals.

Overall an awesome day! Thanks.

Worth Playing

This is a great course that was in great condition. To enjoy the course the most, you have to pick the sei of tees that fir your skill level, as there are several holes with significant carries from the wrong tees. Although this was my first time st this course, I played with someone who knew the course, which was a big help. We were the first group off in the morning and played in 3 1/2 hours. I will definitely come back to play here again.

Tough course

This course is not for the faint of heart. I am not a very good golfer but I enjoyed the experience. You have to keep the ball in front of you. If you miss the fairway you can kiss the ball goodbye so you better bring a good supply with you. The course is in an isolated part the Glade Springs development, so it is a peaceful, quite and scenic golfing experience. If you get upset looking for your ball, either hit it straight or just enjoy the woodland experience. I played poorly but enjoyed the course and my playing companions.

Great course!!

It was wet when I played so pace of play would be expected to be slow when cart path only. Course was still great. Greens were still fast. Just not the best day to be golfing for certain. I will be back when it dries out a bit and should find a great challenge!! Staff were great!

WoodHaven got its name correct

Absolutely stunning course. The night before it had rained heavily off and on for a few hours and I was skeptical of the tee time I had the next morning. I had spent the night there after a long drive and enjoyed the delightful breakfast buffet. After a full plate of food, I embarked on the 2 mile drive through twisting roads with plenty of dips, a foreshadow to the course I was about to enjoy.

After arriving, checking in and asking for some advice, I was ecstatic to hear that besides the duo that just tee'd off, I was the only golfer for 3 hours. Knowing this, I took my time and warmed up on the chipping green, putting green on site. After being warmed up, I bought a bottle of water and a powerade and had the cooler on the cart filled up with ice. In addition to the cooler, the card had a club and ball cleaner.

The course:
The course was every bit of a challenge I had hoped for. I was travelling from Chicago and wanted to see rolling hills, cliffs and more.. I was not let down. Every hole I thoroughly enjoyed, especially 14 and 18. I had made a joke to my friends over social media that I am playing on the Wii Golf course. This course to me, was simply unreal. My only complaint would be that due to the heavy rainstorm the night before, the course was real soggy in some spots, but other spots it was perfect conditions.

After the first 9, i grabbed a quick bite. Some of the better concession food I've had especially considering this was off the main resort area.

WV Fall Vacation

Course was beautiful! Fall Foliage was underway.

Course had great layout but you need to play more than once to learn slope and how to place blind shoots. Course was in good shape. There was a few areas in fairways under repair. Greens were excellent.

Challenging mountain course

Well-maintained course which follows ridges and steep, narrow valleys to offer a real challenge to golfers of every skill level. The varying elevations are complemented by sections of fairway broken by areas of rock and grass. A real treat to play!

Woodhaven

Course was rather difficult for 2 people in my group as they do not carry the ball far off the tee. I would advise if you do not carry the ball at least 200 yards to go ahead and tee up for better play. The course condition was nice and well maintained. There are many elevation changes that sometimes makes it difficult for club selection. There are a few holes receptive for birdies, one drivable par 4 and the par fives are reachable but a few of the par 4's are very difficult. Pay close attention to the score card as I drove through a coupe of fairways. Many shots are blind so I would advise to take the cart ahead to see the layout of the hole. Staff was friendly and the food was great. Would recommend to anyone.

Beautiful Mountain Beast

Enjoyed beautiful summer morning, lush conditions, little breeze. Demanding challenge if you're hitting it well, quite humbling if you're not.

If you have time, warm up at the other two courses driving range. Only chipping area and putting green here.

Great Target Course

I've played the other courses at Glade plenty of times and this was my first time playing Woodhaven… This is a tight course that is in great shape, but you do need local knowledge when playing here. There are several blind tee shots that have trouble, so be careful. The staff was very friendly and the only complaint I have is the food. I paid $8.50 for a burger and it tasted like it was just a microwave burger, wasn't that good. That was my one and only complaint. I look forward to playing there again!

punishing golf course,lots of blind shots,very challenging. Back nine is unforgiving,lots of runout on downhill tee shots, it pays to play conservative off the tees.Have fun, I did

Course is in great shape and well maintained.

The staff is great and very friendly. The course is pricie to play but through golf now it made it very-reasonable in price. It is a local course for us to play but never could because of the price. We are playing it every weekend now through golf now. It is very challenging to play especially from the tips. Overall u are missing out if u dont play this course.
Thanks again!

Beautiful Golf Course

This course is hilly and has several elevation changes throughout. A difficult course to play if you are not at least an average player or better. It is not located near the other two courses ( Cobb and Stonehaven ) and has it's own small clubhouse to check in at. The signs that direct you to it are small so pay close attention as you drive along the resort road. Overall I enjoyed my round at Woodhaven and would recommend it.
