Trying New Course

Played the White and Red 9s. Both were in good condition and interesting holes. Good thing we had GPS in the carts (didn't always work) that showed the holes' layouts because some were a bit confusing.
Multiple rest rooms were a big plus but the course needs better signage for hole to hole directions.
Waited on every hole and shouldn't be so slow on a Saturday morning. Will not be rushing back....

Good condition

Stanley is in surprisingly good condition considering the drought. While lack of water is tearing up a lot of the courses in the state, I’ve played eight different ones in the last three weeks. Stanley is keeping up. Greens were in very good shape, I would like them much faster but understand the people who play there are happy with that speed.

Beautiful well kept course

It was our first time playing at Stanley. When we arrived, I was pleasantly surprised. There’s a separate putting green, chipping green and sand bunker to practice on. The course was in great shape Challenging. There’s three different 9 hole courses. We played the white and red courses. Definitely recommend this course. Loved it. Will be our new favorite ❤️⛳️
