Stone River Golf Club

I’ve been playing here for a quick golf fix for several years but today that ends. The care for the course is little to none. Nobody has any idea what they’re doing. This course is an embarrassment to the game of Golf. The audacity to charge what they do blows my mind. I don’t know who dumber the people who run the place or those that willingly give their money and time.

No mention of it I was playing with anyone so just had to figure that out on the first tee box with whoever was there around the same time. No starter to group 2 separate twosomes together to slightly help the pace of play. Marshal was non existent just riding around and not really doing much. Course was in horrendous condition. Fairways were covered in weeds and was basically just dirt most of the time. Greens were so hard and in such bad shape it was like you were putting on a ice rink. Honesty I can’t believe they charge people money to play.

The course was a lot of fun to play. The greens were extremely fast and even with a lot of spin nothing stuck to the green.

On the back 9, we had to skip a few holes due that there was a group of 7 playing together. They were
dragged their shoes all over green. We
never saw a Marshall. After the round, went to the clubhouse to report it. They said that the Marshall broke it up earlier that day. Again, we never saw a Marshall.

The recent winter freeze and rain has taken its toll on the course. Hole #14 is not playable. The course overall is not in good condition. The staff is very friendly. But for a round of golf, it’s going to take a while for the course conditions to improve. The course of play is also too slow. It was common to see groups of 5 and 6 players. They really need marshals to monitor the groups of players.

Always enjoy playing here… tee box/fairway grass is a little scarce but playable…. Good place to get in a quick round

I would love to see this course have a starter or enforce starting times. As soon as we Teed off the group behind us went causing them to be right behind us feeling rushed the entire time. There was a group in front of us so we did not have them play through as we were already waiting on them. We cleared 9 and got lunch so they could pass us, only to have a solo golfer on our butts the entire back 9 once again feeling rushed. My girlfriend picked up most of her swings because she felt rushed. Greens were in decent conditions, for the price the course it in good condition.

They double booked a bunch of tee times. They blamed it on golf now. Who knows.

Yes! They even have the goats to prove it!
You have to do more than paint the greens green. Now I have green golf balls!
You should water the course, even in the winter. You should put down a green winter grass on the tee boxes and fairways. Signage: More than once we just got lost trying to find out where the next hole was. Did I mention that they do not allow drivers on the driving range? Don't attempt to find it on your own, because you never will. Ask for directions and get your GPS fired up, because you will need it.

I hope this course survives, but I don't see how. These were the roughest conditions I have played in about ten years. That was when I played Los Rios in Plano and Oak Hollow in McKinney. Now I have a third course that has been scratched off my list.

Good course
