Riverbend Golf Course sits in the hills of Buckhannon, West Virginia, where the nine-hole layout is set against mountain scenery. The course plays to a range of abilities, with hazards positioned to require some thought off the tee and bentgrass greens that place a premium on the short game.
Golfers can play a single loop of nine or go around twice for a full 18, with the second pass presenting different angles and challenges. The atmosphere is informal, with staff on hand for casual rounds and group outings.
