Lodestone Golf Club

I dare say overrated.... The fees you pay at times to play this course, and the conditions you get do not match up. The bunkers are not well kept at all. You can see the tarp that is supposed to be under sand in many bunkers... #9 a glaring example. There are completely burnt and cracked soil feet off the green. Moss is on some greens. Not a single person that played before us owned a divot tool. Ha! Simply put, I expect much more from this course. People here are great.

Course lived up to the hype! Hot Deal for $50 was the reason we stopped here on our annual trip. Friendly staff, and immaculate course conditions made for an unbelievable experience. Shot a little above average (84), but just a great excuse to go back!

Too long for average club player. Too much sand. Greens large but Too many undulations. Just not a fun course to play .

A fun, challenging course with great views. Huge nicely maintained greens. Will definitely be back.

The course is still very nice with a great layout but they have let parts of it go. Especially the bunkers, there is grass growing in most of them. The road in and parking area is gravel and very dusty, seems not finished but it has been this way for years. No beverage cart. No water on the course.

Lodestone was far superior to Fantasy Valley . When visiting Deep Creek would recommend. Course is challenging and scenic. Bunkers weren’t in the best condition. Gas carts put a damper on the day. Course is very wet til noon.
Don’t think I’d want to play it in the fall..

We had a 9:30a tee time after about 3.5/4" of rain the previous 36 hrs. Course allowed 90* rule off path, there were definitely wet spots in low areas. Range balls included with your greens fee & an attendant coming around asking if more balls were needed. Overall the course played very well from tee to green. Manicured traps, rakes available. Ranger was seen on the front and back, always friendly. Refreshment cart passed 4 times (they will not take a card beyond the 12th; FYI)! Scenic mountain views all around the course. I'm very excited to make a trip back for some fall golf!

Entire resort and golf course in deplorable condition
Needs to be grommed tee box to green
Front tee boxes were horrible
Sand traps were not playable
Greens were punched and nobody told us
No drink cart on a hot day
Crossed off list to play

Beautiful course and nice layout from tee to green. Not sure it’s worth $100 but it was definitely worth the $50 Hot Deal on GolfNow. The course was in great shape but it’s extremely penalizing if you don’t keep it in the fairway or green. Most of the course is surrounded by knee length fescue that basically eats balls. Bunkers were raked and greens were true. Putting/chipping green was well maintained but the driving range was more like something you’d find at a municipal course. It’s definitely the best course in the Oakland / Mchenry area and I would definitely play it again.

Two complaints: First-sand traps were lousy, grass growing, hard pack, not very well kept. Second- very poor food/snacks selection.

From tee boxes to greens the course was well cared for. The views from some of the fairways were incredible. Looking forward to another round tomorrow.

Good layout and in much better condition than last year…great vacation course as challenging and different than standard layouts
