“Stoney Creek Golf Course is a 27-hole Rees Jones-designed layout located about 15 minutes from the main resort. The layouts incorporate the native habitat and natural springs, and flow naturally with the lay of the land. Each course has generous landing areas, large, undulating greens, and a few forced carries. Unlike Devils Knob, Stoney Creek will have you hitting every club in your bag.

If you want to “ease in” to the golf course, start on Shamokin. Because of its location in the valley, Shamokin is relatively flat, which appeals to more golfers, yet it offers enough challenge to get a seasoned player’s attention. There are very few uphill, downhill, or sidehill lies. The course winds through hardwood forests and alongside meandering streams, with each hole presenting a different view of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The par-3, 7th hole is Shamokin’s signature hole. Although the scorecard puts the yardage at 180 from the White tees, the hole plays considerably shorter due to the dramatic 150-foot drop from tee to green. The tee shot is exhilarating with the Blue Ridge Mountains as the backdrop.

The Monocan nine is the shortest of the three nine-hole layouts at Stoney Creek. The holes wind through pristine wetlands, hardwood forests, and along meandering streams, often offering breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. As you would expect from a course in the valley, most holes are relatively flat, with few elevation changes. But what the course lacks in elevation change, it makes up for in water hazards in the form of creeks and lakes/ponds. When you combine the peaceful Rockfish Valley with the sound of natural flowing water and woodland birds, you can forget about those bad shots.

The par-3, 5th hole is the layout’s signature hole. It’s dubbed the “Paw Print” green and gets its name from the four pot bunkers that surround the green and look like a paw print. It’s challenging, too. Playing 148 yards from the White tees, it’s all carry over Lake Monocan to the small green.

The Tuckahoe Nine is pure mountain golf. Water comes into play on four holes, and the hilly terrain comes into play on nearly every hole. The surrounding landscape alternates between gentle meadows and bold, wooded slopes. Dramatic elevation changes require that you pay attention to your footing and stance, especially on uneven lies. If that doesn’t get you, the undulating greens might. No putt is truly a “gimmee!” Jones’ signature mounding serves as a buffer, preventing balls from running too far afield, while simultaneously creating risk-reward opportunities for those willing to attack the pin.

It's important to get off to a good start at Tuckahoe, which may prove challenging as the 1st hole is a 429-yard, par 4. The hill on the left side tends to guide somewhat errant tee shots back towards the fairway, but if your drive drifts too far right, it’s in the lake. A good drive still left me a long iron into the raised, sloping green that is protected by bunkers on either side.

No matter how good or bad you played, take a step back and take in your surroundings. Breathe that fresh mountain air and get ready to do it all again tomorrow.”

“We really enjoyed our dinner here! We both got the $20 ribs and shrimp Thursday special. Ribs were full of meat, very little fat, crispy on the outside, tender off the bone, and full of flavor! We had super fast and friendly service, too. The fries were a big miss and I wish the music was just a little louder near the dining area because it was a little awkward to hear everyone’s conversation around you. Would go back again when we’re on the mountain!”

“Helen and Jared are an amazing team! They're truly a great addition to the mountain! Our quick go-to spot now for pizza, burrata salad and meatballs. (Nelson loves the meatballs!) We love the online ordering option too!”

“Perfect hole in the wall lunch spot. I had the pulled pork bbq sandwich platter. Any doubts I had about the pricing were quickly dispelled when I received my meal. The portions are more than generous and the food was downright amazing. Genuinely thinking about planning an event just to have them cater, and we don’t even live in Virginia.”

“Ive been there twice after a backpacking trip and I love the service, food, views and beer”

“Beautiful setting, awesome cider! And so far the music has been outstanding!”

“Great coffee! Bold smooth flavor! Super fast delivery!”

“LOVE Wildmandan Brewery! The craft beers are delicious and there’s always something new to try! Great atmosphere and Terry and Dan are the best hosts!”

“We had the most enjoyable lunch at Vito’s in Lovingston today!!! The food was amazing and the service was exceptional! Our server, Shelby was so awesome that we ask to speak to the owner, Sal to give her the great review she deserved. Longevity of staff speaks volumes for a business and most of the staff in Lovingston has worked at Vito’s for a very long time. We are looking forward to our next visit!!!”

“This place is the best kept secret around! Every time we go, we have a blast! The grounds are absolutely gorgeous and it is so much fun! The food is incredible too! I just wish there were more places to stay nearby so we didn't have to always have a DD.”

“Friendly staff, beautiful venue, VERY kid friendly!”

“Great coffee! Bold smooth flavor! Super fast delivery!”

“One of our favorite vineyards. It is always an enjoyable visit and Jorge and Tracy are always a pleasure to visit with and chat about wine. Moby the cat is an extra bonus!! Be sure to stop by!”

“This is a must visit winery in the Charlottesville area. It is one of the most beautiful vineyards I have been to. They have a great selection of wine and the staff was very friendly!”

“Great wine and outdoor seating! They’re very dog friendly, but I wished they enforced the on leash rule a bit more. We had our dogs on leash and two dogs off leash ran off to greet us. One of our dogs doesn’t react well when off leash pups run up to them. And we had to physically pull the new pup off ours, and the dog owners weren’t even near by. I think they were the owners dogs or the owner knew them well. They were very sweet, but I wish the rules were either enforced for everyone or there was an off leash area.
But again, the wine was good, the staff was very friendly, and the environment was nice to sit outside. Recommend!”

“Awesome place and dog friendly!”

“We had a great experience here - the food was all fantastic and our waitress was super personable. We had a great table by the windows overlooking the mountains at sunset, which was beautiful. It was quiet and classy - would definitely recommend.”

“I always stop by when I'm in town and these ladies never disappoint. The fried chicken and potato wedges is what I order. It's made fresh to order, never greasy, and plain delicious. The customer service is wonderful as well!”

“Yo this Subway is actually one of the better locations I've been to, so felt it necessary to toss a shout out. Employees and service were great, and food was fresh. Much appreciated.”

“Great rest spot while skiing. Food options are good for the location, all things considered it's at the midway point from the top to bottom of the slopes. We enjoyed stopping in for snacks, drinks, and they have a restroom.”

“Beautiful spot that allows you to feel miles away from the hectic city/town life . Perfect for just about anything that comes to mind . Cant wait to perform there again !! $JPmusic4thesoul”
