Signature Hole #17 Photo submitted by NateRamsey on 04/13/2013
Amazing course layout
Fantastic golf course. The greens have some kind of blight, which unfortunately mars a wonderful layout.
DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE MONEY
Every year myself and 15 or so buddies spend a weekend out in deep creek, with Lodestone being the centerpiece of the weekend. We will usually play 36 holes at the course, with maybe 9 holes at fantasy valley.
Lodestone is now unplayable. They have a fungus on the greens and you cannot roll a golf ball on them. I have never seen worse greens in 40 years of golf, bar none, not an exaggeration. Nobody told us this was the case when we went out.
Add to that the fact that they have increased the greens fees from about $100, which was already pretty steep, to $160 and the round left me literally sick to my stomach. We canceled our Sunday round because there was zero chance I was giving them another dollar. Beer is $40 for a 6 pack, so after buying some beers for friends I was out $300 yesterday for a course that is unplayable.
All in, my friends and I spend pretty close to $10,000 for the weekend of fun every year, but we’ll be doing it somewhere else from now on
Go play thousand acres, it is a gem at half the price.
Beautiful
Awesome course. Beautiful.
Bunkers are washed out and have so much overgrowth in them. But who plays to hit out of fancy bunkers?
Lodestone declines
Most greens were patchy. Last year $120 this year $149 ??? Seriously overpriced. Course was in better condition last year.
Summer morning
This is not the first time I have played this coarse. I love this lay out and the view the coarse has to offer! However I played links of Gettysburg the week prior and it was cheaper and in much better condition. Fairways had several burned out patches and the greens had small brown quarter sized spots. I would best describe it as a cheetah look! It was ok as we looked forward to playing here again!
Definitely Will Be Back
We thoroughly enjoyed our round at Lodestone and will definitely be back! The course is challenging but fair, and offers plenty of opportunities to score well if you hit the right spots. One of the coolest, well-thought out layouts our group has ever played.
The Good:
-Staff is extremely flexible, friendly, and helpful
-Course layout is spectacular and has lots of character
-Views of the lake on a few holes are awesome
-Greens are huge, undulating, and accessible, which makes the course fair given all the fairway undulation/slopes
-Bunkers had plenty of sand (this might be a recent improvement - as some other recent reviews said the course lacked sand in bunkers - we didn't see a single bunker without sand)
-The small diagrams on the scorecard were good enough to help overcome the many blind shots due to the course slopes; now that we've played it once we'll know exactly where to hit.
-Fairways are plush, enabling players to spin the ball into greens.
Potential Areas to Improve:
-Some tall grass is growing on the edges of many bunkers - this might be on purpose, but if so I'd suggest telling players this to avoid bad reviews. It didn't affect our ability to play out of them.
-Some greens have small (quarter-sized) brown spots, which might be signs of disease? They're still completely playable and roll true.
Overpriced
Difficult should not equate to pricey yet this course seems to think that if they charge enough for everything that you’ll think you’re somehow playing a great course.
Course is in great shale
Greens were pure, customer service was great, and layout is challenging (tips 7500+).
Even if you’re a single digit handicapped bring a extra sleeve - but this course is awesome amd worth it.
Great layout, well kept and friendly staff
We were very pleased with the round. Great design and well kept.
Needs Work!
Bunkers awful-grass and weeds, no edging, need sand
Greens-very slow, difficult to adjust when playing greens 11-13, turf OK
Fairways and rough good
Putting green large but very slow.
Staff very helpful
Disappointing
Played this course 10 years ago and loved it. Group of friends go on a golf trip every year and decided to go back. This was by far the worst maintained course I have ever played. Fairways had areas of dirt and weeds. Tees were in poor shape and bunkers had little sand and weeds growing in the middle. In one trap I had to move a section of drainage pipe so I could hit my ball. This is a 25.00 a round course which is a far cry from the $ 95.00 we paid. Every person in our group was incredibly disappointed in the course and cost.
My group had many suggestions which ranged from turning it into a wildlife sanctuary to building townhouses on it.
Very very poorly maintained course.
Great course, work on the greens
The course layout is awesome. The views are awesome. Being able to hit balls before is awesome but the greens were beat up and need work. Unless you are getting the twilight rate, I wouldn’t play it.
Good Layout - Improvements Needed
Great track, challenging layout that will test your game. Beautiful property with great views. Course can use some work, it’s got bunker issues (need to replace/fill sand) and greens are in pretty rough shape. Seems like they could use some help as there’s wasn’t a starter or groundskeeper to be found on the property the whole day. Hopefully they get the help they need to improve this beautiful course to it’s full potential
I’m a part of the group that this gentleman refers to in his review.
I couldn’t agree more. How can the course up the greens fees when the greens are in such bad shape? Such a shame.
This used to be my favorite course to play. We won’t be back until they fix the greens.
