Rating 72.0

Situated just a few minutes from Muskegon, Stonegate Golf Club in Stone Lake sprawls across gently rolling hills that are surrounded by the beauty of the Manistee National Forest. The undulating terrain provides dramatic elevation changes that can give you a different round every time you play. Although there are residences bordering the golf course, it still feels completely secluded thanks to the sheltering trees and pristine natural setting that is accented with marshes and ponds. The golf course has a variety of greens, most are slightly raised and some are open in front while others have slopes and bunkers protecting them. The putting surfaces roll true with only a few mild undulations. Stonegate's fairways can be tricky since they’re lined with mature pines and hardwoods and more often than not you’ll find one or more bunkers guarding the most opportune landing areas.

First Time Playing

Great Course, beautiful lay-out, very fast greens, just aerated the greens.

Played on Wed Sep 18, they had just aerated the greens the day before , but had not over sanded the holes, that will take place in the next couple of days. The greens were a little more difficult when playing due to the aeration , but overall the greens were very fast. The rest of the course was in great shape. I noticed that some sites (Diamond Springs) had an aeration warning posted on the site) this did not. Also well maintained sand traps. This was my first time playing this course, and it presented challenges, but I would definitely play it again.

wonderful course

This a private country club style course. It is in a beautiful setting with many challenging holes. It is well maintained and run professionally. A little pricey in season but well worth the experience. Ted

Awesome

Best Public Course in West Michigan! The greens are difficult, approach shots are critical. My only negative comment would be, that the cart paths are paved the full length of each hole. So a missed fairway on your drive could possibly lead to hitting the cart path and losing it in the woods.

This course makes you feel like you are WAY up north-very quiet and is well maintained.

We got stuck behind some guys who wouldn't let us play through on the back nine-Other than that, we were smooth sailing.

Great Course To Play With 'Hot Deal'

First time playing Stonegate, and overall I liked the course. Very well maintained, with challenging greens. Super friendly staff--met me in the parking lot with a cart, and let me tee off early.

Reserved $15 'Hot Deal' on a Thursday afternoon, and would recommend this as the way to go. Played 18 solo in 2 hours and 50 minutes. I don't think I'd pay the full price for this course, but that's why I use GolfNow.

Score: 86
Par: 72

First Time Playing

Great course, quiet conditions, really enjoyed the course. Loved the layout and look forward to playing it again.

Overall, loved the course. The tee boxes were in great shape, the fairways lush and the greens rolled nicely. Other than a couple unfair pin placements the greens were for the most part fair and reasonable to read. We played mid-week, late afternoon just before the league started play and it was not busy at all, never had to wait for anyone and we were a twosome. There were a few pesky flies but not too bad that it bothered us. I'd say it is one of the "top 5 courses to play" along the lakeshore for around $50 a round.

Course was great - very rolling, several hazards, lots of sand.

Fairways were in great shape; greens were a bit chewed up. Many ball marks on greens never repaired, which is a shame since it is a nice course.

Staff met us at our car with a cart when we arrived.

Used a "hot deal" so the price was fabulous.

Out of the courses control...

The one big knock on the course, is the relentless attack of 'black flies!' Even with being soaked in insect spray, they never back off so focusing on making shots became very difficult.

Excellent course, lots of variety, one of the top 2 or 3 courses in W. Mi.

Greens are fast and undulating but fair. Fairways are well maintained and wide in the landing zones. Clientele are experienced and good golfers. Always a very positive experience.
