Wintergreen Resort Devil’s Knob
Wintergreen Resort Devil’s Knob – Mountaintop Golf with Cooler Temperatures and Long Views
Course Overview
Wintergreen Resort Devil’s Knob offers one of Virginia’s most memorable golf settings, high above the valleys below and surrounded by long-range mountain views. The course sits on top of the resort rather than down in the foothills, which gives the round a different feel from Stoney Creek and makes weather, altitude, and scenery part of the experience.
The par-70 layout is not especially long by modern standards, but the elevation, wind, and demanding approach shots give it real character. It is a scenic, destination-style round built more around mountain golf atmosphere and precision than brute force.
Key course highlights include:
- High-elevation mountain setting with panoramic valley views
- Par-70 routing that rewards control and smart club selection
- Cool summer temperatures compared with lower-elevation courses
- Distinct contrast to Wintergreen’s valley-floor Stoney Creek layout
For golfers who love mountain settings, Devil’s Knob feels more like an experience than just another scorecard.
