Stumpy Lake Golf Course
About
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.

overbooked
Tee time 11:13am
Tee off 11:32am
finished 4:25pm
Just can't get into any rhythm when you wait 3-5 minutes almost every stroke. I would rather pay $25 more for a round pace of play golf, than this nonsense.
disappointing
DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE!
The absolute worst golf course I’ve ever played. Do not waste your time and money playing here. Most of the tee boxes didn’t have grass on them and almost every green was missing grass and was half black. The course was totally unplayable. The fairways were like playing in a swamp. We left after 9 because we literally couldn’t play golf. Only good part was the starter Dicky, he was the man. Do not play here!
Swamped
Yeah, it rained a ton over the week, but seen that before playing elsewhere. Course was well laid out and scenic. Conditions were literally swampy. Standing water all around and the ground like stepping on a soaked sponge. Puddles stopped any roll and the ball hit and stuck in place or made 2" divots and stopped anther foot away. Maybe will try another time after a long dry spell. Skeeters were enough to make it just that level worse. Pace of play....nobody to push those who were at a sloth's pace...ladies in front had zero etiquette on not standing around at the cart, the only going out to swing after others all took turns being the turtle who never swung a club. Carts were pretty good Yamaha. Basic but good.
Hot Golf Day
Even though it was hot we played early and did okay. The course was in relatively good condition. We had a good time.
Hidden Gem in Virginia Beach
This is a must play course in Virginia Beach. You can’t imagine the beauty and the value until you play this course.
In could go on and on but I’ll just challenge you to visit Stumpy Lake Golf Course !!! You’ll be glad you did .
Surprised
I haven’t play there in many years. To our surprise the course was in very good shape, pace of play was great and the staff was friendly (especially the starter)
Tee boxes need some TLC, fairways good+, greens for the most part are green+, soft, slowish but for a resort course just what expected. (players ~ please fix your balls marks) Was a little apprehensive after reading last years reviews, but looks like efforts to rekindle are really paying off. Had lots of fun with son-in-law and 20 year old grandsons.
