Elevation changes are the name of the game here with swings from the tees that could make the most even-keeled soul feel Vertigo. The drop from tee to the fairways is as steep as 350 feet. The stretch of 12 through 15 is particularly height challenging. Designer Randy Heckenkemper likes to compare his course his course to a roller coaster. This for a high season $55 greens fee that wouldn't even be enough to get a ticket into some amusement parks.

Greens

Course was great, except hey just punched the greens. Nothing online said this. Because of that the greens were HORRIBLE as they were hokey and very sandy. Price should have reflected.

Remainder of he course was great and the staff was very friendly. I would go back again as it was a fun round, just wish that something has been said about the greens. Drove two hours for this. Would recommend the course

If you're in Prescott, check this course out.

Drove from Scottsdale to play this course. Forgot about elevation and temperature differences. At tad cool when starting out and had to buy a sweater at the pro shop (pretty good deal, by the way). Staff greeted us with such a friendly and engaging attitude I thought I was a movie star.

Golf was great, with a number of holes offering sloping fairways and tough little bunkers. Vistas on the course were stunning.

Overall, a pretty good day. Thanks guys.

Great course very fun. Nice views also.

Played this course 2 weeks ago and had a blast so I had to come back & play it again on Saturday. I must say the course is in very great condition for this time of the year. Greens rolled great. Very friendly staff and check in was a breeze. Cart path was fun to drive also haha you'll find out what I mean when you play this course. I drive out from Winslow, AZ which is 150 miles away and the trip is totally worth it. My favorite so far. Have fun and bring plenty of balls if you game isn't straight.

Unusual and challenging course

This course has changed over the last 5 years. There are plenty of homes now in sight. Every hole is a challenge and unique. If you like being in wide open spaces cracking the ball this is fantastic. The cart paths between holes are quite long and they go up and down elevations. There is a lot of out of bounds and you WILL lose a few balls that are unfindable. It is a unique and challenging course ~ so a must for the adventurous golfer. Have a great time.

not worth the time or drive

drove up from phoenix to play this course,not worth my time or effort pace of play very slow waited on every tee box after the 2nd hole,no marshall at all,no beverage cart, fairways and the areas around the greens had been punched and on some fairways the plugs still in laying there,otherwise course is very nice and the staff in the pro shop very friendly towards my group...we played in over 4 hours and 15 minutes but it seemed a lot longer due to the waiting on every tee box

All it needs is warm weather...

Stoneridge has long been my favorite in the Prescott area as it represents a very challenging layout that is reminiscent of many desert style courses you will find in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Every tee ball requires some kind of a forced carry over the desert and scrub brush, even if for only 50-100 yards, it is always there. This is very much a target course despite the yardages indicating it is open for bombers as many of the landing areas funnel towards trouble.

If you play the tips, you'll quickly realize that a lot of the yardage differential is made up on the Par 3's, however #9 & #13 stick out in my mind as having some of larger differences as well.

The staff has always been extremely friendly. Scott will generally meet you at the club drop off point before teeing off and is always a pleasure to speak with. The renovated grill area looks amazing and they have significantly upgraded their food menu and beer selection without putting the pinch on their customers.

My overall review would be higher, however I was very disappointed in the greens during our round today. The head greenskeeper seemed to cave to pressures around late season tournaments, which pushed the verification schedule into mid to late November. As Prescott sees snow and colder temps in the winter months, this means that even as of today the greens still splashed with sand when hit from about any distance. Once on the greens, they were EXTREMELY slow and it was hard to keep putts on line that didn't have more pace than necessary to get to the hole. The greens will get better as the weather warms, however they need a good 2-3 weeks with 70+ degree weather and a good cut/roll to get them back to their late season form from 2015.

I'll be back and will look to exact some revenge on the back nine after going 37-41 today.

An Amazing Course That Challenges

This gem of a course is simply stunning and awesome. If you have any weaknesses in your game, it will exploit it beyond belief. The entire course was near perfection. With that said, I found it too challenging and nearly unplayable for the bogie golfer. But the views and course would most certainly make your round a pleasant but humbling experience.

All I can say is WOW!WOW!WOWWOW!WOW!

I was compelled to write my first review because it just had to be done! I played by myself so it only took a few hours!..and it's the best kept golf course I have ever played! The fairways were amazing...I felt bad making divots on them. The greens were amazing and the views added a special bonus. I played from the black tees so there was a 247 par 3 downhill into the wind and a 230 par 3 going over a ravine with wind swirling...I could go on and on..it's got some tricky holes so it would help if you have a range finder and the elevation does affect your shots! It was worth the drive today from Tempe..

Awesome views, awesome layout and with 6 sets of tees. A hidden gem of a course.

Without a GPS on golf carts, it's very very difficult to determine distances, and planned landing zones.
Slopes, angles, constant elevation changes from tee to and including greens are spectacular, but for the average and even better than average golfer it' s very difficult to plan a safe management route. And the consequences of a poor shot choice from the tee or fairway can be (are) disastrous. Fortunately I brought my own GPS. It's too classy a golf facility not to have the GPS aid. Truly slows play. But I can't wait to return!!
