Underwhelming and Overbooked

Disclaimer - golfed this course the afternoon of the first nice Saturday of the year, so most courses were probably booked and getting back into things.

Traffic at the entrance of Stony Creek Metropark was standstill for 20 minutes. The course was definitely overbooked - didn’t start our round until at least 30-45 after our tee time. Staff behind the main counter were pretty rude. Tee boxes were shredded up. Greens and sand in decent condition. No beer cart. Overall slow play, lots of groups walking and holding things up.

It’s unfortunate that I had this experience, because the pricing was pretty reasonable and the course layout is nice. There’s so much potential but I don’t see myself going back here anytime soon.

Good golf in April

Our tee time was 10:08 we played in 4 hours. Course is in great shape for April there is some wet spots and a couple of tee boxes need some attention. The greens were in great shape for so early in the year. As far as staff they were courteous and professional but I think this early in year with this unexpected weather they might have been short staffed.

The course was in good shape considering all the rain we had. Was cart path only which made it a little slow

Only problem was the ranger was letting multiple individual players out instead of partnering players.

Excellent course,hands down underrated

Great layout & conditions.wouldnt hurt for a stealthy ranger to stroll around as I've seen some teenagers play the tips there 😳 (hilarious until you watch them hit and fall behind pace rapidly)

Terrible

T time was at 12:32pm, we t off at 1:20, when I asked if I can start on the back 9 they were very rude and say no, I asked if I can just play 9 and get a rain check they said no, while
We where waiting ti t off a 4 some got there and they were late to their t time, they let them t off before us ?? We only played 9 hokes and left the course because it was 3hrs and 30 minutes for 9 holes!!!!
I understand we are nit pros and we are there for fun but they should not set t times every 10 min….. the staff there sucks!!

Great Golf Course

Great course but it would be even better if we didn't have to pay to get into the park just to play golf. Adds the extra cost to the total fees.

Park Setting

Stony Creek golf course is in the middle of a humongous state park where the ambient noise of day-to-day life are erased. Wildlife abounds all around you and meticulously. Kept park with great character and excellent greens. Both novice an expert golfers will find a lot to enjoy, even the hazards are in good shape with real sand in the traps. It’s worth the trip.
