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.

Always a treat to play

We love this course. It has the up north feel with tree lined generous fairways. A hidden gem of a course.

Premium public course

4 HC.

Course was in very good condition. Greens were undulated but manageable. Some good elevation changes taken advantage of well.

Not a particularly long course but some good holes layout to make the course require good technical play to score.

Was also forgiving and fun even for a higher handicap guy who may lose the occasional tee shot.

We played early on a weekday, prices seemed fair based on the quality. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Definitely recommend.

A great west Michigan vacation course.

Out of towner

Drove an hour to meet up with a buddy and it was worth the trip.

A few hidden ravines got us where the needed carry was more than you could tell from where we were hitting from. Would like to give it another shot know where to be and more importantly where not to be.

Horrible experience

Not necessarily the courses fault. But the actions of the foursome who thought they owned the place, and the ranger who made it perfectly clear to me that singles have no rights on the golf course, led to me leave the course after 12 holes. Something I've never done before in my life. That foursome skipped the 11th hole to get in front of me and leapfrogged at least 2 foursomes in the process. All without even going through the motions of asking for permission. As a single whose playing partners left after 9 holes, I caught back up to them immediately and let them know how displeased I was at their actions and lack of effort to try to stay well ahead of the people they passed. They and the ranger put the blame on me. Whatever. Enjoy your course. I'll never return.

A diamond in the rough

Excellent course conditions and an engaging playout. I think the 120 slope from the whites is a bit underrated. Several holes have challenging carrys over creeks and wetlands crossing the fairways. Bring your A game!
