Walking to the Pro Shop you can already see how bad 14 tee box is, it is a clear preview of the terrible course conditions at STO. This was a favorite course to play and now I doubt we will ever return. From tee to fairways greens and bunkers this course in the worst shape we have ever seen it. Tee boxes are beat up and need significant repair, fairways have excessive areas of ground under repair, and many greens have dead spots and several bunkers are submerged under water. I’ve always thought of STO as one of the top tier courses, but certainly not this year. Highly doubt they can fix all these issues this year hence my reason for no return this year and possibly ever. Arnie would be embarrassed to have his name on this course.

The Good- The staff and management were friendly and helpful. The course restaurant was a great option. The carts are great and are newer. The greens and cart paths were in excellent condition. There were some beautiful scenic holes.
Now the bad
Terrible course conditions: beat up tee boxes, terrible fairways / couldn’t even tell difference between rough and fairways on several holes. There were many dead patches on fairways and in the rough. The bunkers were unplayable (either submerged in water or covered in leaves and not maintained to be playable)
This course has potential to be great but lots of hard work and TLC is absolutely necessary to reach that potential

Everything from tee to green was in fantastic shape. Crescent Farms is a must play for serious golfers.

This course was a total disappointment. The fairways were bare it was like playing on a dirt path. The pictures they have posted must be 5 years old. It was so awful we only played the front 9. I would never recommend this course. It’s a complete waste of money

This course was in the worst condition I’ve ever soon on a course. It was playing on dirt there was no grass. The fairways were bare It was a horrible experience. I would never recommend this course. It was overpriced and not worth it. It was so bad we only played the front nine. The pictures they have posted must be 5 years old. If this is one of Arkansas’s top 3 courses it’s tragic.

This course ins in very poor shape. The greens are awful and most tee boxes torn up. Pace of play was horrible. A Wednesday afternoon tee time took 5 hours and the players were rude. Too top it off our cart died and no one in the pro shop answered so we had to walk back. Save your money. It was awful at Mo Bluffs

The staff at Pevely Farms were incredibly rude and snobbish. I was playing with my 2 brothers and none of us are golf experts. However we played the appropriate tees and let the only 4some waiting on us play through. Despite this the extremely rude starter approached us on the 9th hole and told us to pick up our balls and move on that we were too slow. Just for clarification all three of our balls were on the fairway. The club house no help at all. We were well within the expected time limit but were expected to skip our hole so others didn't have to wait. We will never play there again and all the snobs can play that course as they prepare for the PGA tour. Most definitely not a course that welcomes or treats novice golfers well.
