Challenging back nine

The rough was not uniform height. It looked like the mower was not sharp or skipping along.

Greens a little rough

OK par 60 course. The greens are a little rough and you have to bang the ball to the hole. Fairways are OK but you’ll need to roll the ball up to get a good lie. It’s a decent choice for high handicap players who want a short course to score well on. The Hideaway CC is nearby this one. Play it if you can get on.

Weeds are taking over

Lots of weeds in the rough and to a lesser degree in the fairway. Looks like they are about to quit spending on this course till next season.

About to close

This course is in bad shape. No grass, lots of weeds, greens are in poor shape, cart paths are bad and the old carts need trading in. They have not cleaned up the fallen trees from Hurricane Irma, that block some of the cart paths. The traps are just fair and the rakes are pitiful!
If you can play it for $20, then go because it won’ be around after April. They’re not spending any money on it.

Only in Fair shape

Fairways had lots of weeds and bare spots. Grass in fairways is in weak condition. Greens putted Ok , but holes were broken down and the flags leaned. There was white stuff (sand or fertilizer) on all the greens. Took 4:45 hours to get around. I’ll wait a couple of months before I play here again to see if they have the course in better shape.

Play here after it drys out.

This course is very wet because it doesn’t drain well or there’s no place for water to go. If you just need to play here, catch a $30 Deal. They are cleaning up the Hurricane damage and that’s no problem. The greens roll fine. The fairways and tee boxes need improvement, in my opinion. My suggestion would be to give it till mid December, then try it.

Greens in bad shape

We got on with a Hot Deal for $20. It was worth that. I wouldn't want to pay more than $30-$35 for this course right now, though. Greens are rough and we waited on most holes.

Slow play, bad traps

Played 9 holes in 3 hours, quit on 13 after having 3 groups backed up on a par 3. No Ranger to keep things moving. Course was way overbooked trying to make money. Conditions of course are average. Good Greens, but bad traps filled with rocks and shells.

Better play it now!

I heard that greens fees are going up to $125 on Jan 1st to soak the Northern visitors coming to Sanibel and Ft. Myers Beach, who want to play close by. Then after summer, She'll Point is going "private" with no access to locals.

Starter needed in afternoon

We were on pace to play a 4 hour round having played the front 9 in 2 hours. We stopped to refill ice in the cups and headed out to #10. Much to our surprise there was 1( maybe 2 ) foresomes who had decided to jump in and start on #10. It took 1 hour to play the next 3 holes, and another hour to play 4 more holes! The starter was not around when we made the turn at 3:00 PM. I don't believe Stoneybrook is aware this is going on.

Play only if special low price

The greens are full of goose grass, but fast. The fairways were soft and wet , even though it hadn't rained in weeks.

Skip this course for anything else.

Arrived for our 1:15 tee time only to find the course was massively over booked. They blamed Golf Now. There were no carts, so we had to wait for someone to bring one in. Finally, got on the 1st tee at 2:23 with a dirty cart that had someone else's trash in it and a battery that needed charging. Had to wait on every shot because the course was so packed. Due to drainage issues there was water and mud everywhere. The greens had bad spots. And, the traps have either shells, stones, or water in them. The mosquitos nearly ate us up on #7 and 8 on the Queen. So, after 9 miserable holes and a cart that would barely make it in...we quit! It could have been worse though. I met a guy at the bag rack that had a 10:20 tee time who didn't get out till 12:15 and had just finished 18 holes. He said he was never coming back.
The employees are friendly and the course layout is very nice. The surrounding homes are very nice. But the Members need a new Manager and a Course Superintendent to get this place to the level it belongs. For now, play elsewhere.

Good course for enjoyable round

Wide fairways. Little water. No forced carries over hazards. Excellent condition. Not a hard course and sets up well for it's intended guests from the Hyatt next door. My only objection is that it is pricey in comparison to other courses that are more challenging in the area. But, the Hyatt can probably get you a deal to play this one.... And you'll enjoy it.

Used cart

Warning! Under construction.

This course is being over seeded and is a swamp! The water sprinklers come on and soak you on the tees, fairways, and greens. The fairways are so wet, it's cart path only. Nice course, but I would skip playing here till mid January.

OK , not great.

Par 70, but good golf holes. Condition was average. Lot's of Sunday twosomes. It was OK for $27, but for another $10-$12 you could play a much better course.
