Challenging 9 holes

Greens were being worked on after recent outing.....aerated 6th and 9th holes so no chance to putt....just laid up short no problems on both par 5’s. Clubhouse called me while en route to let me know which was appreciated .....still wanted to play anyway. Each hole is definitely a challenge and fun track....country club style grass and feel in small town. I’d like to go back in fall when cooler and course in top shape.

Course in Good Condition, Leaves Under Control

Very enjoyable round of golf for late October in Iowa. Course was in very good condition. They're continued to water fairways and greens , course was freshly mowed, and fall leaves were not a problem at all.

Beautiful track that never disappoints!!!

While a bit wet (Cart path only) thanks to excessive late summer rains last week, this was still another fabulous round of golf on Iowa's BEST none hole golf course. Forget that this course is only nine holes this is a MUST play!

Kudos to the grounds crew for overcoming a near disaster last week!!

great 9 hole coure

Best nine hole course I have ever played and the discount fee made it the best value too. High quality layout, by same architect who did John Deere. I love this course, too bad you cant play on weekends as it is members only then. YOu play nine holes twice but the varied layout does not make it boring. Must play it !

Always Fun to Play

I enjoy playing this course. It is worth a 90 minute drive a couple of times each year.
Good pace of play on this 9 hole course. A good challenge from the back tees. Greens are typically among the fastest I'll play all year.

Hidden gem in Eastern Iowa!

This little gem NEVER disappoints. The course conditions are as good as any course in the state including the major CCs. Heavy rains slowed the greens, but they were in great condition. Traps need help, but again I attribute that to rain. Love the new clubhouse look. New owners are very friendly and appear genuinely committed to making this a destination in Eastern Iowa.

Early April conditions

It's been a lingering winter. The course was in good shape considering we had snow a week earlier. Looking forward to the next time I'm down here.

Damp but still a good outing

We were the only two on the course when we started. It was a light mist, but very tolerable to play. The wetness kept the greens slower so minimal 3 putts..LOL! It dried up by the 6th hole and we finished quite satisfied with our play. It's a great 9 hole course, and it's always been in great condition. Played here 4 times this year, in 3 months and never been disappointed with the courses conditions.

Love the course

I have played this course many times and love playing at Stone Creek. I was not impressed with the staff person that was in the club house. Still a great 9 hole golf course.

As good as it gets for 9 hole courses

You will not putt on better bent grass greens accept at the most high end Midwest courses...and then these might match them hole for hole.

Best greens I've been on!!

This was a beautiful course. All the tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in excellent condition. Bring your A game to this place. The first hole, a 551 yd. par 5, (from the tips), second hole 218 par 3! The greens were FAST, and true. It was one of the most memorable days with my son...( who shot a 76), that we have had in a while. I haven't golfed much in the past 17 years, so me getting 2 pars on the 500+ par 5s was exciting. I asked Brent to tone down the humidity, (90* heat index 98*), but he just smiled and said I'll turn up the air in the clubhouse for when we get done! A very , challenging 9 hole course to say the least! Thanks again Stone Creek for participating along with GolfNow to offer a great deal.

BEST 9 HOLE COURSE IN IOWA

UN-BELIEVABLE..... it is awesome. If it was 18 holes it would be a destination course. I absolutely was amazed. Great Greens, Bent grass Fairways. Super Condition. Great club house.

What amazes me is it was designed by D. A. Weibring. You can't find it on the score card or their Website. They need to market that..

absolutely a must play ....
