Fun but challenging

The course is in good condition. It has 6 difficult holes, 6 of medium difficulty and 6 that you had better make par or better. There is a lot of force carries. It has uphill, downhill, and side hill lies. Very scenic and certainly a good buy on the rate. Be ready to enjoy and be frustrated at the same time. A fun day.

Target golf at its best

Raven Rock is a relative short course that demands accurate shots, there is not much room for error. Most of the time you are in the fairway or you have a lost ball. Its fun to play. There are several upgrades happening such as a new restaurant coming, the sand bunkers are getting much needed attention, and probably within the next month, the course will be in great condition. The greens were very slow but we have had rain, however they were slow before the rain. Once the greens are in shape, the course in a good test for your golf game.

a good course in the mountains

Stonecrest has always been a favorite, people are nice and its always in good condition. The views are just wonderful and so fun to play. The course was wet, we have had a lot of rain in our region, but still playable. The bunkers were closed as they are most of the year. Greens not as fast as the will be in 2-3 weeks. No matter, it is fun to play and even when not in great condition, still better than most. A super buy for the cost of green fees.

Great views, fun to play, a good challenge

A fun course to play, all different shots and a lot of ups and downs. Great views all around. Definitely worth the effort to play, Tremendous condition for winter with the exception of the sand bunkers. Not an expensive course for one of the best in Kentucky.

Blind Shot haven.

The course is extremely challenging, you need to play 2-3 times to understand the blind shots. Good shots can lead to penalty shots unless you know the lay out. The course was in really good shape and it was fun to play. Course knowledge is so important, good tee selection. Very scenic. 6 difficult holes, 6 easy holes and 6 very fair holes. Makes for a great day of golf.

Golf Course on a mountain

The course is in excellent condition. It has a great driving range. The pace of play is usually fast and is never overcrowded. It is a difficult drive but such a great place to play. Greens are fast, rough is tough but playable and fairways are beautiful. Holes 9 and 18 share a large green built around a small pond.

A fun challenge

StoneCrest golf course is the best course in the Eastern Section of Kentucky. It is worth the drive, the scenery is great, several holes are very challenging yet playable. Course is always in good condition and greens are moderately fast.

First Time Playing

The course has several blind shots

The staff was great, the course had several blind shots and blind slopes and for the first time playing the course made it difficult. After playing a couple of times, it would be more fun. The condition was ok, several greens were a little burned. The course had very little rough or sand so pace of play was good.
