Crossville sits on the Cumberland Plateau in middle Tennessee, a region that has quietly built one of the densest concentrations of golf courses per capita anywhere in the country. The plateau's elevation — around 1,800 feet — gives the area a cooler, more temperate climate than the lowland South, and the rolling terrain of hardwood forest and open meadow makes for naturally compelling golf land. Stonehenge Golf Club is one of the courses that helped earn Crossville its reputation as a serious golf destination.
The club takes its name from the massive limestone outcroppings that are characteristic of the Cumberland Plateau's geology, and that stone presence shapes the look and feel of the course. Mature trees frame many holes, and the natural topography provides the kind of elevation change and visual variety that flat resort construction simply can't manufacture.
For visiting golfers, Crossville courses tend to offer a genuinely unhurried experience — well-maintained layouts without the pretension of a big-market club, and Stonehenge fits that tradition comfortably.
