A Somewhat Challenging Course!

My husband and I enjoyed the round. We found the back nine to be much more enjoyable than the front. The Bermuda grass seemed to be left quite deep. At times we had difficulty distinguishing where to hit to as there were no indicators. The GPS on the carts was helpful until the last hole when it just quit and we were uncertain of where to go next. The pro shop was closed when we arrived at the parking lot and we did not have access to the washroom facilities. However, it was Thanksgiving Day and the staff deserved to be home with their families. Access to the washrooms would have been helpful.

So Very Pleasantly Surprised!

My husband and I had not played this course in a number of years due to the very poor course conditions. However, we were advised that this course was under new management and had improved. We were totally surprised at how far this course had come along. The greens were transitioning to summer and the fairways were undergoing improved treatment. The pro shop staff were very pleasant to deal with providing us with great hints and information. Kudos to the work being performed and the course being perfected! We will certainly be back!

Best Shape I have Seen this course in!

We picked a perfect weather day to golf and Stonecrest did not let us down! This is the best shape I have seen this course in. The pace of play was excellent with no waits required at each tee. We were so grateful that the starter allowed us out on the 1st tee rather than the more difficult 10th! Thank you............I noticed that all of the signs had been repainted/refreshed which looks great. The only suggestion I would have is to have the on course washrooms checked every so often throughout the day as the one I used did not have any papertowels to dry ones' hands. The handicap stall in the women's clubhouse washroom had no handsoap in the dispenser. Other than that, kudos to the staff and new owner for bringing this course along!

What a great day!

The fairways were well groomed and the greens were immaculate. This is a very well kept course! We started our round joking around with the extremely funny starter. He was a hoot and started my birthday round off on the right foot. On the first hole I scored a birdie, what a gift! We ended the round by stopping in at the restaurant/bar for a cold one and once again had a great finish with the extremely humorous bartender! Enjoyed our day immensely due the high level of customer service by the staff! Thank you. We are returning next week!

Wait until another year to play this course!

This is the worst course I have ever played in Florida. The greens were unplayable and the fairways may have been under the thousand of leaf droppings, not really sure. We were not certain whether to take our putters or sand wedges to the non existent greens. There appears to be some effort at fertilizing which may help this course????? Not too sure it can be saved this year. I believe we should have been given a heads up on the very poor conditions prior to booking it. Not worth the green????? fees at all.

Pack your Patience for this Course!

Although it was President's Day, the tee time was running 20 to 30 minutes behind. Initially, there were no carts available to use 20 minutes prior to our start time. We had to wait for that as well. The greens were in reasonable shape considering this is the beginning of spring. However, into the game, we had to wait 15 minutes at each hole for the group ahead to finish, resulting in us between the start delay and hole delays having to complete our game after only 11 holes when we had paid for 18. A course Ranger would possibly have assisted in preventing these constant backups. I did however manage a Birdie on a Par 3!

Working towards Improvements!

Stonecrest appears to be making some positive changes with i.e. signage and communications that were not evident last year! Good job! However, and unfortunately, the tee off times were running approximately 20 minutes behind which only permitted us to play 9 holes of the 18 we paid for. We had hoped to get more holes in prior to losing the light. The greens were being well tended and the fairways are coming along considering the winter is just finishing.

What a Friendly Course!

This was our first time going to this course and I must say we will certainly try and return. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We were fortunate enough to be paired up with a lovely couple who certainly made our day very enjoyable. We were disappointed, however, to learn that the back nine holes were closed and we had to play the first nine twice. We would have loved to have seen the course in its entirety.

An Excellent Day!

The course conditions were superb! While battling the winds, we managed to have a great round of golf. We could not have asked for any better from the staff. They are extremely conscious of COVID protocol which was very much appreciated! The only suggestion I would have is making the washrooms more disability friendly as stairs are required to get to any of them.

Pace of Play very very slow!

The pace of play was extremely backed up this day, even with a twosome dropping out ahead of us by the 8th hole, and us having to wait at least 4 to 5 minutes at the following holes. The fairways were in terrible condition with patches of grass not being mowed and what appeared to be some sort of pasture grass growing throughout. Very disappointing as this course was in top condition in the spring when we played it! We would suggest however that some signage is required directing players to the next hole, ie. arrows painted with hole numbers on the car path. We found ourselves at a loss on a number of holes on where to go next! This was our last round in Florida prior to heading north. See you next year!

What a Pleasure!

We thoroughly enjoyed our game, although we packed it in after 10 holes as threatening thunder clouds were moving in and the heat was extreme. The fairways and greens are in excellent shape. We appreciated that COVID protocols were followed, allowing us to play as a twosome. Thank you! A question we did have however, was the missing Crown Royal tree. We always enjoyed seeing it and have taken pics over the last few years when we passed it!

Very Rustic Indeed!

This course was at the mildest to say rustic! Often I did not know if I was in the rough or the fairway. The greens were terrible to say the least. However, I must give credit to the staff for being very friendly and extremely helpful. The signage was very poor on directing us to the next hole, at times finding ourselves at a loss on how to get there! The water features were very murky and not appealing to the eye at all. I did, however, have an extremely good round scoring 9 over par.

More than elated!

The staff are very friendly and personable with all who play with a bonus of following COVID protocols! We were very impressed. Unfortunately, due to the extreme heat I was forced to give up playing after 11 holes and my husband 14. But we will be back!

The Course has come a long way!

We played this course in early spring and the efforts of the grounds staff have certainly paid off! The greens were in great condition, the fairways almost perfect. Kudos to you all! The staff were most friendly as well as the players! The only suggestion I would have is requesting the player assistant on their approach to don a face mask over their mouth and nose when speaking with players and in close proximity. Otherwise, all COVID protocols with regard to pro shop were certainly being followed! Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves yesterday!

Patience, Patience, Patience!

Definitely required on this course. Our round of 18 holes took more than 5 hours. The greens were in basic spring shape but should come along in a few more weeks. The staff were excellent in apologizing for the lengthy delays in obtaining a cart and the wait and lagging on the tee off times. The back nine, especially, Hole 10 have some breathtaking views. Definitely a course not to be missed as long as you pack your patients!

Best Maintained Course I have seen!

There was little to no complaint from us. The fairways were in perfect condition, the greens were well groomed and the tee boxes were great! We have played this course in previous years and this year was the best we have seen it. I was also impressed with the COVID protocols in place for the pro shop and our request to play as a twosome was granted with no argument! Thank you Arlington Ridge. We will be back.

I was especially pleased with how this course is being spring maintained which interprets into great golf course conditions in a few weeks! Am looking forward to returning......Another point I was especially elated with was how the staff responded to our request to play as a twosome due to the COVID spread.

Disappointed!

No disappointment here with regard to this course! However, started the day with perfect weather and by the 12th hole the clouds and rain had moved in and we were forced to give up! The pace of play was on the slow side, causing us to have to wait for the group in front on every hole to either tee off or make their second shots. Personally, had a fantastic round going, scoring 2 above par on the front nine. Disappointed we could not complete our day! However, looking very much forward to returning on a better day!
