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.

Not the worst

My second time here, the course management has been poor both times, 6 minutes between tee times isn't working. Tee boxes are extremely hard, no grass and hard to get a tee in. Those are my gripes, besides that the course is beautiful and i would go back.

Beautiful day for a bad round

My score was horrible, but the morning was perfect. I saw a gaggle of turkeys on hole 4 or 5. That was cool. The greens were in much better condition then April 2 when the greens were aerated.
