Stumpy Lake Golf Course is a Robert Trent Jones design that provides a unique golfing experience. This scenic layout is routed across a 1,400-acre nature preserve that is absent of any commercial or residential development for miles. The golf course wraps around its namesake lake, which has a canoe and kayak launch as well as a fishing pier. Deer, fox, and eagles are frequently seen on the course and there has even been the occasional bear sighting. Water has a prominent presence throughout and there are also several strategically placed bunkers. Stumpy Lake Golf Course is a layout that will force you to be creative with your shot making but it's still approachable enough for high handicappers to tackle with confidence. If you're looking to get in even more golf, sister club Honey Bee is located almost right next door.

Takes way too long to check in and pay for round at pro shop. I felt like I was with my account doing my taxes. Also need to take better care of the course and greens. Many of the fairways are still extremely dry and hard. Some greens still had marks from air rating. Need a good greens keepers to fix those greens.

It is a nice course with really good views

It is a nice course it has really nice views of The lake but I do not think this is a 45 to $50 course It has bear spots on the fairways and the ball does not set up on the grass like it does on $50 courses But I do like stumpy Lake and I will play there when I can get a deal

Fun coarse

Only thing I could complain about is the tee boxes. They were pretty hard. Could barely get my tee in the ground on some holes.

Course maintenance going on…

The greens were just done and there is so much sand, putting is a pain. Still a good course and not as wet as I thought it was going to be.

Still a local favorite!

Overpriced

54 dollars for aerated greens and sand. Pretty disrespectful to be honest, tee boxes are half grass half dirt, fairways are hit or miss , either giant puddles or weedy grass. It should be a crime to charge 54 dollars.

Greens issues

The last few years they just cant get these greens right. $45 felt steep with sand and hardened mud spots on about half of the greens. Nice new carts though

First Time Playing

Top notch course!

Went out for the first time to this course. Probably had the worst performance of my career but still a fun time. Course is forgiving and losing balls is not a issue if you was to spray and pray like I did that day. If you have your driver off the tee in order the day you visit this course, you’re money. Great course and will be returning.

Fun course but not worth the price

The course is definitely fun to play, but there aren’t any fairways…just weedy grass. They are full of dirt patches and divots. Some of the greens are alright while others need work. They are hard as a rock. The tee boxes definitely need work. Took 4.5 hours to get through 18 holes. Seems like they had groups going out every 4 minutes.

I do enjoy the staff and the uniqueness of some of the holes. I just wish the course was in better shape. For 31$ it’s ok, but 50$ on the weekend is definitely not worth it. Go to sewells point, VB National, or hells point.
