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.

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.
Consistent course conditions.
Bothe Cypress and Oaks are kept in consistently good shape and the Hot Deals are good values.
great course
great coarse we will be back well laid out interesting holes only a few short par 3
Fabulous time
The staff & restaurant people were very professional & the food was great. The golf course reminded me of a spectacular facility back home, of which I highly recommend, With that being said, I highly recommend Stonegate CC!! Thank you for the fabulous experience!
golf with nature
Well kept facility.Course was in excellent condition.First three greens were slow,but the rest were fine.Some tight tee shots.Plenty of sand and water.Par three's on the back side have forced water carries.Look for gators and other wildlife during your round.
Played a second round three days later.The greens were much faster,so I made a few putts.
Sand and Water
If you cannot play out of the sand this course will eat you up. Almost every hole has fairway bunkers and if ball control is not your strength you will find them. Green conditions are excellent and run smooth and true. The community attached to the course is right out of a European village, quite nice.
Great discovery
First time there and was a treat to play. Course plays quite long, so if you decide to play from the back tees, make sure you can carry at least 265. Wide fairways and strategic bunker placements around the greens make it
more of a challenge. Geens were a bit unpredictable but hey, this time of year is to be expected. If I had one issue ( gotta have one) they should at least identify the centre/150 yard marker to the green. It would help set up the tee shot better.
Poor condition of greens
Not sure why, but the greens were in the worst condition that I played anywhere this year. Pace of play and staff were very good but if it wasn't for a Hot Deal, I would have felt ripped off.
poor greens
the overall course condition wasn't bad, however the greens were on putt-able. I had three buddies down for a week golfing and had played the course in the past and it was always in decent shape. The pro shop guy said course was in good shape before we went out..
good deal
For the money the course was and good challenging and in good shape.
First visit
Course was in good condition and was a fair challenge, pace of play was excellent for a Sunday
Rolling solo
Very nice facility in a 55+ community. The staff was very friendly and the course was in pretty good shape. I was playing alone and got stuck behind a foursome and twosome that wouldn't let me play through but it was a nice day and I was having a good scoring round so I just rolled with it. Would definitely play this course again
Beginning to show signs of poor maintenace
We have played this course many times over the past few years and it has been one of our favourites but sadly this year we can see decline in course maintenace standards. There were large clumps of weeds in many of the bunkers which was disappointing as they could have easily been removed by green keeping staff. The greens were slow and bumpy. However full marks to the catering staff as the food was excellent.
