Stonecreek Golf Club

The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. The course conditions were good - some bare spots and soggy spots on fairways but greens were perfect. We played the round in 4 1/2 hours in 100 degree temperatures. This course gets a tremendous amount of play and is in good condition for the wear and tear. We thoroughly enjoyed the layout and found it challenging. We would definitely play this course again and not hesitate to recommend it to others.

The issue is pace of play. Way too slow. We waited on EVERY hole EVERY time. The group in front of us, and the one in front of them were ovbiously playing from the wrong tees. This slowed everybody down to a crawl. One of our guys bailed after 9 holes. The ranger to his credit asked us if we wanted to pass the group in front of us. The only problem was that the group ahead of them was just as slow. The Ranger needs to keep the groups at the front moving. I would suggest that if he sees players on the wrong tees to suggest that they move up. These guys had to have shot 110 or more. You might have the starters tell players if you are not a single digit handicap (currently - not what you used to be) then DO NOT PLAY THE BACK TEES. If you cannot consistantly hit 250 yards with your driver, DO NOT PLAY THE BACK TEES.

Personal note: Keep an eye on your bag here. I had a sleeve of Pro V1's taken from my bag during this round. Not the first time either. I don't mind loosing balls, but I'd prefer to loose them myself, thank you. .....and yes I had them before I arrived. I put in a fresh sleeve which I did not use before going to the course.

Greens were in nice shape, not too fast. Everything else was average, at best. I don't recall this course having such a slow pace of play. The 10th tee box had THREE groups waiting, plus the groups playing the hole. Never seen that in AZ.

This used to be worth it during high season. I could drive an hour away (instead of 15 minutes), and I'd still make it home before someone playing Stonecreek.

I knew I was making a mistake booking this course for a Saturday afternoon. 3 hours to play the front and 245 hours to play the back. Couldn't really see anybody holding up the course, they just jam in the golfers. Many upset groups at the turn and in the parking lot, many of whom didn't get in 18. Its not an easy course and really not suited for casual golfers and seniors in my opinion. I enjoy playing this course, but will stick with playing early in the morning. Slow play seems to be a constant complaint for this course.

This is a pretty challenging track. Conditions were pretty good but quite damp and muddy in a lot of areas.

A good round of golf during a busy part of the day but the pace kept up for the most part. A tough course with plenty of water and sand that comes into play.

Teed off just before7, course was still a bit wet from the watering. really soppy on a couple of holes, looked like a sprinkler malfunction. Challenging course, use every club in the bag. I play this course several times when visiting. Have been doing so for the past 8 years. Look forward to playing it again before I leave. Bruce in the pro shop was very helpfull, a pleasure to deal with him. thanks Bruce.

Water water and more water. Second time playing this course and shot mid eighties cause of water. Still a great course. Will play again

The fairways were green and the greens were well maintained

I t think this course has a great design. What the need to do is improve the pace of play, and clean up the garbage in the creek.

The layout of the course was nice but t the pace of play overshadowed the course. After 5 hours we had to come in due to the sun setting. The foursome ahead of the group ahead of us were just teeing off on almost every hole. There were two Marshalls on the course but no help was found from them. The only peep we heard from them was that there were a few groups in a tournament earlier in the day. If the greens weren’t chewed up and the tee boxes not filled with broken tees, cigarette, and cigar butts this would be a fun course to play. With the abundance of courses in town it’s not very likely I would return for a round.

I don't usually write a negative review, but the staff didn't have enough carts so we waited, they said a 30 minute delay due to a frost delay, but the temp was only 42 that morning. We teed off one hour past our tee time, took 2hours and 50 minutes to play 9 holes. Needless to say we didn't finish.they said they couldn't do anything as far as a rain check since we booked on line.

Great course, great layout, great staff but extremely slow play

The public is all over this course - walking dogs, jogging, bike riding. They were oblivious, for the most part, that they were in danger of being struck by a golf ball!!!

Our 2:28 tee time meant that it would be challenging to complete 18 holes. When we arrived we were told that they were running at least 20 minutes late because of an early morning frost delay. They gave us free range balls to compensate. No carts were available so we had to carry our clubs to the driving range.

We only managed to play 14 holes. The putting & chipping greens and the driving range were packed. I’ve never seen so many people on a golf course.

The course itself was interesting & challenging but the greens were filled with ball marks. Pace of play was really slow; 2.5 hours for the 1st 9 holes. We had to wait for the groups ahead of us at every tee and almost every other shot. I will not be playing that course again.

Played on Friday 2/16. Teed off around 2:45pm Love the course layout but only got 16 holes in. Course was wet in areas and muddy. Lots of geese and their stuff on the course! Biggest aesthetic issue was the trash that had drained onto the course during the rains last week. Just filthy in some areas. No Marshall out on the course to do their jobs and move the pace of play forward.
