Stonebridge at Newport

Course is in a beautiful location that rites through the neighboring houses. A variety of hole and strategy required to complete. Course was in a bit of rough shape. Hard fairways and greens that aren’t getting the moisture they need to stay lush and healthy. I paid a discounted rate via GolfNow, so not upset about $36. The guy I caught up with and joined posted closer to $70. I would not spend $70.

Course is beautiful, a few water features, pace was moderate. Greens were in great shape, a couple spotty areas or some golfer whoopsies. Lots of houses as it runs through a neighborhood. Don’t trespass private property. Lots of beautiful white oaks and pines.

The course is very good for the price point. Will definitely be going back, friendly staff all around. Would recommend!

Played Newport’s Golf Course at Stonebridge and had a great time overall. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. The course conditions were a bit mixed ,the roughs were tough and definitely punished me lol, and a few greens could use some work, but it was still an enjoyable round. Would give it another go.

One of the worst courses I’ve ever played if not the worst besides the staff being friendly and understanding which they were, I can’t blame them on that the course itself is like playing a course Jed from the Beverly hillbillies put up Four rednecks, wanted to fight with us for not letting them play through our foursome After we went down range they hit their golf balls anyway, and we were ducking and dodging golf balls. Almost had a fight. Children running on the fairway while you’re hitting your ball off the fairway almost hit one of them. Fairways look like rough’s. greens look like fairways I’ve actually seen fairways in better shape. no Marshall. I walked off on hold number 10 I couldn’t take it anymore. Oh there was also people making bonfires on the side of the fairway burning trash besides the staff and management being totally cool and understanding they did refund our money back, but I wouldn’t waste your time.

Good course layout. Maybe 1 quirky hole #9. It's fun to play. Little out theway but im in range. Only issue is the greens need attention. Course needs a bit more grass on it.

The fairs were bare and the greens are litered with weeds! Any amount of rain makes this course unplayable.

Conditions very acceptable, with the exception of a number of greens which had sprouts that did not allow for true putting.

The course doesn’t open until 10 and the range was said to open at 1030..??… so a 1040 Tee time allows for lil to no warm up .. but the track is is fun .. greens well they have been the same for years … lil funky weeds…but still

Manageable …

As with many local courses Newport Golf Course is having issues with weeds populating the greens. So much so that the weeds impacting putts.

Fairways are in average condition. Pace of play was very favorable as the course was scarcely populated.

I hope to see green conditions improve. If so I could in good conscience recommend the course to friends.

Greens fees at Newport could be more competitive, Premium price for course conditions that are not meeting par.

Fun track . Just seems like they can’t get rid of that funky weed on the greens …Same conditions for years but still a fun track …

I paid only $26 after a hotel rate and using my Golfnow tee credit. I would only play again for the same rate on a weekend again when everything else is expensive. This is my second time to play the course and 2 times I have had a member jump in front of me at number 10, they need to monitor this as this created extra slow play on the back nine and made us wait on #10 for ten minutes extra.

Now about the course, the tee boxes were horrendous, many with no grass, many with major bumps and nothing level. Almost all of the fairways had no grass. I know we haven't had much rain but got to water fairways at some point and this was like a summer drought conditions. Greens were terrible, lots of weeds causing bumps. Inconsistent green speeds from hole to hole as well.
