Cypress Course at Stonegate Golf Club
About
The Cypress Course is one of two 18-hole, championship courses at Stonegate Golf Club at Solovita. The course has a player-friendly layout with ample fairways and bunkers that are large but generally low lipped. There are some challenges that should not be taken too casually though, including sloped, elevated greens that are heavily guarded and water hazards on fourteen holes. The golf course is known for having scenic par-3 holes that are particularly difficult from the back tees. In addition to the two golf courses, Stonegate Golf Club at Solovita offers practice facilities that include a targeted grass driving range, putting green, and practice bunkers.

don't waste your money
To be fair nice track but terrible conditions!!! Greens not worth it, Staff very friendly
Won't go back to play it again
Interesting Wild Life
With this course cut through the marsh, I was able to see and hear birds that I don't ever get to see at the courses that I routinely play.
Nice target golf layout with plenty of trouble.
Don't even think about walking. The distance between some greens and the next tee box is long.
Awful Experience How Does Give This Course More Than 1
This was an awful bad place to play. Will not go back. The morning started with us and 4 other groups following a guy through a neighborhood for about 8 minutes just to get to the course for a shotgun start on 13. We were paired with a husband and wife. They were very nice but there play was slow. There was no one in front of us and it took 4 hours. we usually play in 2-1/2 hours. The fairways looked like goats mowed them and the greens were all over the place. Some were slow and some fast and some slower. Many of the greens had bare spots and some had holes. The bunkers were not good. The layout was not very good. This was the old Poinciana course. I just can't say much else other than it was awful.
Course is average at best
Course was very wet. Traps where unplayable. Layout was good but I probably won't go back
OK but won't play there again
We hate.....HATE cart path only courses! This one was, possibly because of rain the day before, but two of our golfers had extreme difficulty even finishing our 18 because of so much walking. The course is in very good shape except for some spotty greens and it's located in a quaint community with a great little downtown next to the clubhouse, but is way, WAY, out in the sticks. Several fairways are relatively tight, there is lots of water, you do not come back to the clubhouse until you finish 18, and there was no cart girl....on a SATURDAY. Bottom line....we paid $35 but there are LOTS of courses WAY closer in to the metro Orlando area that are in just as good shape, more golfer friendly, and in the $25 dollar range. It was cool to play once but that will be our last time. Oh, and LOTS of gators!
First time
First time playing this course and it was awesome. Seemed like the fairways and greens got better every hole. Would definitely play again!
Great course!
Loved this course! Best course I've played in this price range so far (two weeks into my stay). Greens were in great shape and the fairways have green grass! Love the layout but bring lots of balls. Will definitely be back.
Some testing holes.
Nice greens, fast with subtle slopes. Tees and fairways were in good condition. The course is tighter than it looks, if you dont hit the centre of the fairway then you can bounce sideways into trouble. Although there had been a downpour the previous day, the course was fine. Some very strategic water resulting in a most enjoyable challenge.
good play
Interesting and challenging layout. Course is in good condition,I will definitely play it again.
Fun Course
The course was soft from the previous night's down pour as it was cart path only. thus if you don't hit the ball straight you can have a good deal of walking to do, as was the case. the greens were soft and speeds fairly consistent.
Cypress Course
The Cypress is a challenging but playable course. It was our first time playing here and thanks to the starter we were paired with a single member of the club. It would have been a challenge to find our way to some of the holes otherwise. Finished during happy hour and enjoyed a refreshing cold beverage. All staff were pleasant and extremely helpful.
review
For February the course and greens were good.
pace of play was slow just under five hours
cypress stonegate
Fairways are often sloped to the water or woods, making for tight conditions . Greens are nice. Some doglegs are confusing for first timers.
Great course
Very nice, would play it again, good challenge, must keep it straight, nice dog legs, keeps you thinking the entire round.
Excellent experience, unique course & development
I played as a single and the starter (Michael) went above and beyond to ensure I was paired with a compatible group. I've never had better service from a starter. Cart attendants were very helpful also. The Cypress Course has a mix of slightly tighter holes with good variety and also 4-5 holes with wider fairways. Greens putted nicely for this time of year. Most sand traps had washout from heavy rain a week or so ago. Fairways very tight. Some long cart rides between groups of holes but the routes were well signed. Note, this course does not come back to the clubhouse after 9 so take some drinks and snacks along. Most challenging part of the experience was finding my way out of this gated development. This might be my favorite course out of the dozen or so I've played in the Kissimmee area.
Over played
This is a good layout but these courses are over played. Don't know why they let outside play. The greens were beat up. It's a retirement community so the play is very slow.
Disappointed
The corse was great, the only problem we had was try to get seated on our arrival for a coffee. When we came in off the corse we were going to eat but again waited and was ignored to get seated so we left.
Very scenic layout
Course had 3 inches of rain a few days before we played that washed out the sand in most of the bunkers. Other than that, very nice course and a good value. Saw several alligators in the ponds.
No Carts
When we showed up for our tee time, there were no golf carts available. We had to wait for groups to come off of 18. The staff did what they could to get carts as quickly as possible. We teed off 40 minutes after our scheduled tee time.
Usually carts are not an issue.
