WinterStone Golf Course opened in 2003 in Independence, Missouri, as the second phase of a development that began with a limestone mine. Harlan Limpus, owner of the mining firm Rocca Processing, purchased 150 acres and opened the mine there in 2000, later adding the golf course to add value for the surrounding community.
The layout was designed by Craig Schreiner Golf Course Architects, a local firm. Set in wooded terrain, the course features notable elevation changes, tall trees, lakes and creeks, giving it an Ozarks-like character.
