This 54-hole facility was built on former mining land owned by U.S.
Steel. Sculpted from the peaks and valleys of the Appalachians, the
courses offer scenic forests, numerous creeks and challenging elevation
changes. The Ridge Course, with its roller coaster fairways, heavy
tree cover, and precipitous 150-foot elevationchanges, is incredibly
photogenic. As a reminder of the site’s former use, the green at the
par-fi ve 3rd is buttressed by a shelf of exposed shale rock. The Valley
Course is dotted with picturesque lakes, beautiful rolling fairways, and
stretches two miles downrange along a slender valley. The 18th hole, a
441-yard par-4, nicknamed “The Assassin,” rises to a dramatic finish
at the signature clubhouse just above the green. The Short Course at
Oxmoor Valley is a delightful collection of 18 pure one-shotters which
offer severe elevationchanges and almost every hole plays downhill.
The Short Course is listed by Golf Digest’s Places to Play as one of the nation’s
Great Value courses in the public category. |
