About Hearthstone
Hearthstone presents an enjoyable challenge for golfers of all skill levels, featuring an 18-hole layout that spans from a manageable 2,540 yards on the forward tees to 6,548 yards from the back. With a par of 71, it presents a well-balanced mix of holes that require both precision and strategy.

Whether you're teeing off from the Gold, White, or Red tees, each set delivers its own unique flavor, appealing to everyone from beginners to seasoned players.
What to Expect
Expect a course that rewards thoughtful play, particularly on the approach shots where the true scoring opportunities lie.

Watch out for strategically placed bunkers and water hazards that can easily catch an errant shot. Make sure to adjust your club selection based on the wind, as it can shift dramatically, especially in the afternoon.
Fun Fact
Hearthstone has been a beloved spot for both local and visiting golfers for years, partly because Ed Barge, a well-known architect, designed its challenging layout in the early 1980s, which continues to be a favorite for golf outings.
