Golf courses at Nemacolin Resort

Mystic Rock

Set atop the Allegheny Mountains, Mystic Rock offers championship golf in a stunning setting. It sprawls across 2,000 wooded acres and incorporates some of Dye’s most favored elements – huge bunkers and rolling greens. As a past host of the PGA TOUR’s 84 Lumber tournament, Mystic Rock has tested the best in the game.

Shepherd's Rock

Opening in 2017 Shepherd's Rock was nominated as ‘Best New Course’ by Golfweek. The second Pete Dye-design on property works its way through the naturally rolling terrain, giving the golfer some unbelievable mountain views. It is up there with the best in the country and perfectly complements the PGA TOUR tested sister course Mystic Rock.
