Stumpy Lake Golf Course

Had an awesome experience at Stumpy Lake. Plenty of well maintained practice areas even though we arrived barely in time to make our tee time. Course wasn't too crowded but play still seemed to crawl along. Our interaction with the staff was overall great; particularly in reference to the starter. The woman who checked us in at the clubhouse simply printed our receipt and handed it to us with a cart key with literally no communication. We almost didn't see the signs for the #1 tee making us nearly miss our tee time. The course was beautiful though and nice layout. We did expect to have more water in play with a name like stumpy lake but weren't complaining as our skill level is only average. Stumpy lake is a pretty forgiving course; especially from the tees. I would recommend this course to anyone.

Nice course to play that winds through the woods with dog legs; long 3 pars; challenging 5 pars. Bring your all around game for a good score here. Just a fun place to play.

Great time nice weather good golf nothing else to say

I really enjoyed my round. The greens were true, fairways had nice roll, and even the rough well maintained and cut. I was surprised and impressed.

The greens rolled very good today.tee to green was well worth the money

Very enjoyable. Great place to play. Good condition.

Greens very good. Fairways good. Tees average. Layout traditional. Natural surroundings no houses! 3 inches rain, casual water, but still playable. Staff nice.

Excellent pace of play. Greens get much better after spring maintenance. We had great weather but be aware playing after heavy rain. Pick a good day and you won't regret it.

Golf course was in good shape. Greens were cut really short. Played in a three some that kept an average pace. Play ahead of us was very slow because of a foursome who hit their drive into the woods every hole, then took a while to look for their balls resulting in a big backup . because they would not let others play through
Having an employee to drive around to speed up play would have helped.

Well it was old home week as I visited my boys in town and one of my local favorites in VA Beach. Stumpy Lake has gone to through a lot of upgrades and it has paid off. The new club house and refurbished practice areas are a tribute to management. The course was in the best shape I have seen it in a long time. The greens were not that fast and the fairways and tee boxes were in good shape. I was impressed with the turn out on a work day but I was able to get in with no problems and the pace was OK. Keep up the good work.

Course was in good shape overall. Fairways could use a little more water. With plenty of trees throughout the course there is shade the entire way and a little breeze coming off the lake. With the trees and water there are a lot of bugs, so bring some spray. Fifteen to twenty deer along the course and a flock or two of geese it was like being in a park. We played around 4:30pm. Will be back a few more times this year.

This was my 1st time playing the course and I was very pleased with it. The course is moderately challenging with some long 500+ yds par 5's and some interesting water placement on some of the holes. The course plays well for the duffer and the more experienced golfer. The greens and fairways were in good condition. The course in located on the Stumpy Lake preserve which provides a very scenic and idyllic setting for this course. I will definitely play here again

Stumpy Lake is newly renovated in excellent condition. There are NO homes on the course only beautiful natural setting with Cyprus trees and knees with a pristine lake (water reservoir) and other natural settings. We frequently see deer on the course! Can't ask for a better round of golf in Tidewater area! The value can't be beat.

Course was in good shape. Greens were hard and very fast. Play was a bit slow, but expected that for a Sunday.

Always liked the course layout and scenery. Greens slow and bumpy.

The course was in overall good shape. The course is fairly hard throughout the playing surface and has some bare spots under trees. The greens and fairways are in good shape and play smooth.

Good course for the price. The greens were in good shape even after a turential downpour the night before.

I enjoyed this course and it presented some unusually easy challenges, but overall it was a good course to work on your game.

Had an excellent first experience and will return.

I got a great deal through golfnow.com to play during prime hours for 20 bucks with a cart. Course was in decent shape. Greens were very hard, particularly on the front 9. I'd play again but not for more than 30.
