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.

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.

The fairways need a little work, some bare spots and areas need to be reseeded.

It’s getting better

The course continues to improve, but the pace of play continues to slow due to tee times being to close together.

There was still no sand to fix divots. Golfers will try to do the right thing if you provide the tools.
