Location                                               
Freestone is situated in the Bald Eagle Valley of the Appalachian Mountains in Central Pennsylvania.

Golf Course Overview    
Freestone was conceived to provide a quality golf experience for the public living
in and visiting our central Pennsylvania region.  Freestone was named after the numerous streams that cut through the property which include the Bald Eagle Creek.  (Streams that are created by watershed runoff are classified as freestone streams).
 
At Freestone we have designed a modern golf course using the natural flow and features of the land. The course is carved out of 270 acres of forest providing dramatic views and a pristine setting.  Freestone blends with and beautifully complements the vegetation and the rolling terrain, routed over and around numerous streams and wetlands offering a spectacular natural setting for a championship golf course.
