Course Highlights
Stoneybrook's broad, varied layout consistently earns high marks for its challenge and visual appeal across the course. Exceptionally friendly staff and solid overall conditions make this a well-regarded public access option in Southwest Florida.

Rating 75.6

Stonybrook Golf Club boasts seven sets of tees, making it a truly versatile course that any skill level can play. It has been certified by the National Golf Course Owners Association as being beginner friendly. The layout features wide fairways with generous landing areas leading to large, undulating greens that are bordered by intimidating bunkers and contoured mounding. The golf course is one of the longest in southwest Florida at 7,453 yards from the back tees, making it a long hitter's paradise. The difficult-to-read greens will challenge even the best players. The course wanders through a scenic landscape of pristine wildlife preserves. The sparkling lakes that are scattered throughout come into play, as do the abundant pines, oaks, and cypress trees.

New Pay Ahead Policy

They now make you pay when you make a tee time. That means I would have to put 4 greens fees on my cc and then figure out how the other 3 will pay me. That’s not gonna work especially when I can’t have a cup for water.

tom got paired

I got stuck with the slowest golfer on the planet. He was never ready to play and even when I gave him a put, he would continue to slow us down. People behind us played around us by skipping a hole. The whole group of old men would not move up, so every par 4 hole was a poor drive and a worst 3 wood. a 5-hour round that was pure agony.

Someone must make these guys play from the proper tees and pick the ball up on punched greens after the 3rd put.

A course ranger is badly needed

Next time I am walking off this beautiful course as there is not course etiquette required.

Pro shop didn’t tell us about construction on front 9

I should’ve known the cheap price meant there was construction all over the course nobody cared to tell us

Nice course

Enjoyed playing at this course.

Only the back nine was open and they told us to play it twice.

The course is maintained well. Staff is friendly. Pace of play for two of us was great.

Tom at Stoneybrook

The only drawback is that they put me with a threesome, grandma, father, 10 year old just learning. It was a family outing and although they were very polite I could tell I was intruding on a family outing.

Funny thing is there was a twosome of men behind us, would have been a better fit to put me with them.

The course should look at the type of group not just the number of players.

Disappointed

They do not provide water cups!!! No advance notice either on their website or on GolfNow. Big shock; big disappointment. In 10 years living in SW Florida, and playing many, many courses, this is the first course that did not provide water cups. Cheap move.

Second, the front nine was closed. Working on their bridges. Played back nine twice. Ok, because I have played the course many times before. But had to be a big negative for first-time players. Again, no notice on their website or on GolfNow.

Done with this course even though it is just a short distance from my home. Not going back and not recommending to anyone.

We were glad we didn’t pay in-season prices, the greens were under going maintenance and were a mess. No pre notification of this. The staff wasn’t very helpful.

StoneyBrook

Great people and a fun course. The greens were tough with ridges, excess sand/dirt, and ball marks. Changing the time to return carts to 730 vs. the usual 8 PM was a big downgrade for people playing after work.
