Stoneybrook West Golf Course
About
Designed by Arthur Hills Stoneybrook West is a roaming blend of gutsy, penal holes, picturesque par threes over water, reachable par fives (527 and 522 yards from the tips, then 578 and 605), and several short, sporty par fours that cover all corners of the site. Dramatically rolling fairways salted with Hills' trademark grass-faced bunkers, subtle elevation changes and undulating greens were all artfully carved out of native orange groves, overlooking Black Lake. Water comes into play on 12 holes; you'll find all 18 are distinctly different, challenging and memorable.
For those visiting the Orlando area, particularly the Disney World complex, Stoneybrook West is just a matter of minutes up the road to the north. For those who frequent the Orlando golf circuit, Stoneybrook West is a course that must be seen to be measured against the other name courses.

Reviews
Stoneybrook West
Welcome back. Formerly, one of my go to courses. It fell on hard times. Kudos to the team for bringing it back. Enjoyed my round and will be booking a tee time in the future.
Great resurrection.
Played it 25-30 years ago and they have done a great job bringing course back to life greens were awesome rolled at 6 not sure but great condition.
Great time
Course was dead on a Friday morning. Fine with me as I was solo with a ride along. Fyi that costs $20 which kinda sucks. I teed off just before 8am and didn't see another golfer on the course the entire time. Layout is fairly challenging for me as someone that shoots about 100. Decent amount of water and sand. Conditions were nice, greens were in great shape but I found them to be inconsistent speed wise, however that's probably due to user error. Pricing was a bit more than expected for a weekday time and the ride along fee. Had a great time will definitely be back
Stoneybrook West
Significant improvement in course conditions. Kudos to the staff. Saw major improvements in tees, fairways and greens. Bunkers and some areas around the greens need work. Pleasantly surprised by conditions. Definitely will be back.
Great Course
Amazing course and hospitality, nice fairways and greens. People were super friendly, I even inquired about being a starter.
Great time continued improvement!
Had a great round playing this course for the first time. It was a busy day so I did get paired with a threesome. I’m a single player who enjoys bringing my wife so we can get away from our normal hustle and busy schedules so it’s our time to just be outside and enjoy. With that being said we do understand in busy days that we could get paired up and this was one of those days. Iam grateful for these courses that allow a single player/single ride along and this time around we were paired a fantastic threesome which was a lot of fun. The course from my understanding is continuing to get better and better each day. It shows and the course is a bit of a challenge with some decision making shots. The only thing I think I add are better notes as we came to the back gate and no one is there from certain hours so maybe make mention of that so I would have bypassed that and went straight to the front gate but it didn’t cause an issue at all just more of a note thing. Great course, great time! I will also add that there wasn’t much in the Proshop for women as the wife does like to spend a little money on outfits from time to time so having a bit more of a selection could garner additional dollars. Also one last thing I collect the metal quarter size ball markers even if I had to buy a divot took to get one I would like to see those, I settled for a poker chip style but really don’t have those and no where to display. All in all we will definitely be back it was great and people were friendly. Thanks for a great round!
Coming Back
Stoneybrook West is making a come back. Played there Aug 8th and the course is in good shape. The fairways are good and same with the tee boxes. The greens are very good. They putt true and rather fast. Only issue I had is to hold a green you had to hit a high shot in or you could roll to the back or off. There we some bare spots near some greens but not bad. All and all Stoneybrook is making a nice come back. Thank You to the grounds crew GREAT work!!!
Much Better Than Expected
This course has certainly risen from the dead but not to its current pricing point. Its status has changed from barely playable to serviceable but $60 brings increased expectations are far from being achieved.
Greens - soft and slow but fairly clean and consistent.
Fairways- decent shape and highly recommended for those interested in posting a solid score.
Traps - waste bunkers. Most not even raked. Almost as if they haven't gotten to the point where traps are a concern yet.
SBW like Metrowest are 2 courses that Orlando golf needs to return to glory. I'd play SBW again because I enjoyed the layout, but I'd avoid bringing guests to this course because it still fails to hit the marks.
Grade - C-
Had a cart but had to walk
Half of the par 4’s and several par 5’s wouldn’t allow our cart on the fairway.
What’s the point of having the cart?
Greens were in great shape. Fairways were okay. Rough was work in progress. Whole course is work in progress with the renovation and re-opening. Challenging tract that will continue to improve .
Pleasantly Surprised
I had heard mixed reviews about Stoneybrook West as given that the course had new ownership and there was much work to do to bring it back up to standards. The fairways and greens were above average and with time I think will be quite good. It is a fun and fair and a good value. I’ll be back in to play it again and look forward to its continued improvement.
Hidden gem
Great experience. Challenging but fair layout. Good shots rewarded. I would highly recommend.
Good course
Course in good condition. Greens in good shape and ball is rolling nicely
Huge Comeback
Wow, I was wildly impressed. First time playing since the course re-opened. Conditions from tee to green are quite incredible, I’d say better than pre-closing (last I played was about 5 years ago). Tee boxes were even better than Orange County National. Greens were a little slow but true and smooth. Probably around an 8.
One negative was pace of play. 8:28 tee time, got out at 8:36, waited a few minutes or more on every hole, and walked off the 18th green at 1:51. Never saw a ranger the full day. In fairness, I’m sure they are prioritizing the conditions of the course over things like a ranger, but 5.5 hours is pretty brutal in the Florida summer.
Recent discovery
I’ve known about this course for years but just never played it. I heard that it had reopened about a year and a half ago so we decided to check it out. The tee boxes and green were in good shape as well as most of the fairways but if you’re in the rough, you’re in the rough, lots of weeds!!!!. With all the rain they probably had it mowed in a while, so there was grass clippings in several of the fairways but not a dealbreaker. Staff was very friendly and concerned about the golf experience. Clubhouse is very nice, with a nice outdoor seating area, and they actually had a guy playing music.
