Rated HHHH —Golf Digest

One of the top courses in the state of West Virginia is
Locust Hill Golf Course in Charles Town. Locust Hill
maintains championship golf conditions with outstanding
bentgrass tees and greens. Playing at just over 7000 yards
from the tips, this facility provides plenty of challenge.
Lakes, ponds, and streams bring 35 acres of water into
play on ten holes. The finishing four holes are as good as
you’ll find anywhere, wrapping up with the 455-yard, par 4
eighteenth which features a dramatic approach shot over
a large lake. Golf Digest awarded Locust Hill one of the
“Top 125 in Country for Best Value.” The course handles
corporate and charity golf outings. With the excitement of
Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races, the area has
plenty to offer. Golf, Racing, and Gaming make for the
perfect sporting getaway. Locust Hill is located west of
Charles Town off Route 51, a little more than a beautiful
hour´s drive from the Baltimore and Washington beltways.
