Wet mountain course

The course look beautiful driving up to it. Was cart path only never play this course if it's cart path only cuz the car pass or way away from where you would normally hit the ball. After roughly a week of dry weather this course was still wet and not draining. The rough was so thick you could hardly find your ball if you hit into it. The dry grass that they had mowed the rough was still in the rough almost impossible to find your ball. The pizza place on the front nine was absolutely about the worst I've ever had. Finally a few people didn't play 18 holes we had about five holes that was fairly decent. Trying to find your ball even though you know where to hit it was almost impossible. I think I came out just about even on balls found in balls lost because I found other people's balls in the rough. Other than getting a decent rate on golf now I don't know if I will ever go back to the course.

Nice course

This course is always in good shape. Only issue was that the starter was behind the counter and really had no idea about Golf Now. Luckily I play there a lot and he let us out. If it was my first time there it may have been an issue. We got right out without to much waiting and had a pleasant time.

Beautiful day paired up with two nice gentlemen

A beautiful day my girl and I decided to pair up with two nice gentlemen. We had a great time. After reading the reviews and knowing the course wasn't great shape it was better than expected. Both the fairways and rough were very patchy. The greens are very slow and bumpy. The course was fairly wide open and somewhat easy of a layout. I think there was one gentleman running the whole show. For the price we paid we had a great time on a beautiful day didn't expect a whole lot. If we found we're in a patch we just moved it on better grass.

Slow round even with ranger on

Thank God I got put with very nice gentlemen. Had two foursomes in front of us one left after nine holes we thought that would be the end of slow play. Ranger had talked to them on the first nine to speed up then at least two to three times on the back nine. Seems like every time the ranger talk to them they actually slowed down more. Four young people that I do believe was drinking and talking way too much. The course was in okay condition for Stony Ford. Greens slow as normal but ran true. Luckily all four of us were very patient and enjoyed each other's company.

Nice 9 hole track for the money.

Yardage way off. First hole is suppose to be par 5 but tee box was moved 150 yards forward from last year. No sand in traps but was told by the very nice couple we were paired with that they had the sand it would be put in later this year. Otherwise courses fun to play 9th hole is extremely difficult. For the price for nine holes you can't beat it with golf now.

Course in great shape

I was worried about playing this golf course after reading some negative reviews. They are definitely doing construction around the course but the course was in terrific shape. For the amount of rain we got the day before and cart path only we all enjoyed our round. Green had great speed and were very smooth. Not sure why there were so many bad reviews. I would recommend.

Extremely friendly and accommodating pro shop

Got there a little bit early and they had a small tournament going on. Checked in and the gentleman in the pro shop came out and said just jump ahead of these guys going to the first tee and you should be good. Worked out to be great never waited and my girlfriend and I had a great time. For the price we paid have to grade it as excellent. If I wanted to be picky tee boxes could have been a little bit better and fairways could have been a bit shorter. Greens for about medium speed but true. For $10 for a cart and green fees what can you complain about. Have to say they wanted to make sure we had a good time and they did and we will be back again. Thank you.

Perfect Day

Beautiful Day!!! Staff was friendly. Starter was very good, Had Spotters out on the course helping with blind shots not only when to hit but help locate your ball to help speed of play. Some holes were cart path only but front 9 had beautiful water holes! Looking to playing there again. Was helpful playing with 2 guys that knew the course well. Would not recommend walking this course if you have never played it before. Good to take cart and check on where to hit because 5 or 6 holes have blind shots.

Beautiful Course

Beautiful course let me and my girlfriend go out by ourselves. But foursome in front of us was extremely fast and had nobody in back of us was just very very pleasant. I've played this course about five or six times and always in great condition. Will be back probably on my way down to Ocean City Maryland or Atlantic City.

Nice little layout

Nice 9 hole course, because of that pace of play is a bit slow. Should have a bell on second and 5th hole to let know when clear. Greens were cut nice and very challenging. Not sure of the food but they did have beer. Lol

Worse cart gps

Did not play well myself. Could not download GPS on my phone. Course has change names Plus switch front and back nine but could never register anything to come close to the right yardage. GPS on the cart was better at pushing advertisements then giving the correct yardage. Absolutely terrible cart GPS. Most greens are very fast but had a lot of bad spots on them. Very tight. I would love to come back another time if I could download proper yardage on my phone or if the cart GPS was updated. Absolutely beautiful day, but other than the GPS and the carts being terrible there was no printout of the golf course on the golf score card. Very frustrated especially when I was not hitting well. Hit a beautiful drive on the 18th hole but did not realize the pond came out further than what you could see from the tea box. Even the gentleman that was playing with me at knew the course that that was a excellent shot. I saw it found three times but must have gone right into the pond. Would have been much better if I could have actually got yardage from the GPS on the cart without so many freaking advertisements.

Nice Course needs clubhouse

Course is always in good Conditions except maybe after the rain and the sand traps need work. I wish they had a clubhouse or at least a locker room with a shower.

Late Start Slow Play

Started Late way backed up and a 5 hour plus round to boot.. Now I know why I don't play on the weekends but figured a tee time of 1:30 on a Sunday during football season would be uncrowded,,, I was wrong. I would suggest to play earlier on any day. When the sun is setting last few holes are hard to see with the sun directly in your face.

Everything Plugged

All but 6 or 7 holes were plugged. Both Fairways and greens. Gentleman at register could not find the Golf Now tee time. I was lucky I was playing with former members they let us go off the back other wise it would of been a 5 hour round. Will not be going back.

Response from on 09/10/2018:
We appreciate your honest review. Every course unfortunately has to go through a aerification process in order for new grass to grow in for the fall. We appreciate your patience and hope you understand that the greens are only plugged for a short period of time. Thank you for coming out and we hope to see you again soon.
