Wintergreen (Stoney Creek)
At the Wintergreen Resort in the famous Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, you'll find two very contrasting 18-hole championship courses. Accessible to resort guests, the Devils Knob layout sits atop a mountain of that name. 12 miles down the mountain is the year-round Stoney Creek course, which boasts 27-holes and can be played on a daily fee basis.
Sitting down in the Rockfish River valley, at a much lower altitude than its lofty companion, the Stoney Creek layout comprises the pleasantly testing Shamokin, Tuckahoe and Monocan nines. At times tree-lined, at others more open, this parkland course should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy.
As the layout rolls through the Virginia countryside in the shadow of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the three nine-hole loops provide a mix of scenery and terrain. With elevation changes, contoured greens and occasional side hill lies, this relatively early Rees Jones design brings the natural elements of the landscape into play: meandering streams, threatening ponds, hardwood forests and pristine wetlands. Holes like the long par-5 9th (Tuckahoe-nine) is one of many holes that play towards a beautiful mountain backdrop.

Wintergreen (Stoney Creek course)
The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf. Just over the fence and sharing similar terrain is Royal St George’s; but Prince’s is far from overshadowed by its venerable neighbour. The three nine-hole loops at Prince's, laid out over gently undulating terrain, are sure to bring a smile of satisfaction to all lovers of links golf.
Stay&Play at Prince's: excellent onsite Lodge accommodation available
