Located in the New River-Greenbrier Valley Region, the Resort at Glade Springs boasts three championship courses, The Cobb Course, The Stonehaven (2003), and The Woodhaven (2010). The resort is located 75 miles from the Charleston (capital of West Virginia) airport. The Charleston to Glade drive features a beautiful drive through the Appalachian Mountains.
The Resort at Glade Springs was established in 1960 with the original Cobb Course opening in 1972. Some fifty years later Glade Springs boasts of 200 guest rooms, 13,000 square feet of conference space, and 1400 acres of a gated community dotted with 450 luxurious homes.
The Cobb Course features rolling fairways, mature hardwoods and sand bunkers as big as the state of West Virginia. Many of the greens are three club differentials and remember it's better being short of the pin than deep. The 16th hole on The Cobb Course acts as the signature hole and requires carrying your ball over three water features. On the tee a well struck drive is needed to fly a C-shaped lake. Before you swing out of your shoes, any ball over the hill will flirt with a third lake. Head Professional Mike James chuckled, "I have not played too many par-4's that require carrying three water features." If you have aqua phobia the hole is no laughing matter.
