Awful Experience

Stony management did a horrible job keeping the pace of play moving along. The back nine was marginally better, but the foursome in front of us were drunk and loud. I know staffing is a challenge everywhere but course rangers are needed badly on the weekends.
I won't be going back to Stony Creek.

Sneaky Tough

Played the white tees so nothing super long. First time playing here. This course was sneaky tough. The fairways were cut narrow, the rough was deep, the greens had slope and speed. I will say some of the pin placements were brutal and the greens were pretty hard. Pace of play was miserable. Guy working the front counter hates his life. Beautiful course though. I’ll for sure play here again, just going to avoid weekend tee times.

Terrible

This course should have been closed due to flooding. They had the front 9 open and back closed due to flooding, but should have kept the whole course closed. We paid full price to play the front 9 twice, and just left after the first round. We lost so many balls in huge puddles and they overcrowded the course. The staff was super unfriendly as well.

Do NOT play

Don’t think you’re getting a good deal here. Pay for higher quality elsewhere. Course was overbooked and poorly maintained. Slowest round of the year, way too many tee times available. Nobody repairs pitch marks or divots. Holes had not been moved or cut in days it appeared. Tee boxes were horribly uneven and covered with divots. I will never be back.

The course has a pretty setting.

Overall the layout and the setting was very nice, but the pace of play , tee boxes and fairways were terrible.

Consistently over booked

Played another 18 that took again 6hrs…. Starter on the first tee box 20min past the scheduled tee time said (well it’s weekend golf that’s usually meant for families). Would have been longer than 6hrs but ended up joining the group in front after I kept sitting on the first few tee boxes for 20min to clear to wait another 15 min+ to take a swing.

Greens not great either. Avg course in general.

Burgers are great. But won’t play there again.

Slow play greens are terrible

Played around with a buddy took almost 6 hours to finish my round, I’ll never be back. I’ve heard good things about this place truly disappointing.

Poorly Managed

They mix in carts w/walkers which ruins pace of play. Also be prepared to wait in line at the start with 16 others because they won’t start anyone off the back even if it’s wide open. Course is nice but the whole experience is ruined because management doesn’t know how to run it properly. So if you don’t mind a 5 1/2 - 6hr round this is your spot.

slow

They need a ranger to keep up pace of play. I would recommend, but caution that pace of play may be slow. Took 30 minutes to play one hole. We didn't finish our round.

Course condition not great

The course was way too wet and muddy (more so than anticipated recent rain could explain.
