About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7101 yards
Slope 135
Rating 74.8

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.

Pretty Good Considering

So for a course that just re-opened and was remodeled, it was pretty good. Greens were not perfect but rolled well. Fairways and rough were ok but could be better. Staff were super nice. There was a tournament ahead of me so I waited to tee off so I was not near them and I ended up playing in 3.5 hours.

Definitely going back.

Continual Disappointment

I was excited a couple years ago when SBW reopened. Right around the corner from where I live, and always heard what a fun layout it had. After over two year and several round trying to be patient, today was my last round there. No starter to be found, waited around while someone found a cart. Never saw a ranger on the course. Which usually wouldn’t be a big deal, except when a family from the neighborhood came out of a yard a just cut in front of us on a hole. (Only played one hole) but had a young child and we waited 15 minutes in a tee for them to clear the hole. Stopped playing after 16 as it was three groups on the 17th hole. Again where is the marshal. And then there are the conditions. Greens are good, but that’s where it ends. Fairways are horrible, weeds and mud everywhere, and bunkers are just dirt. It’s a shame, course does have a decent layout but someone needs to pay attention.

Best Bang for your Buck !

Greens were meticulously kept, FAIRWAYS mowed regularly no big tickets of grass pile up all over, no potholes! Kudos to Brent in the clubhouse, very friendly, funny guy , nice to have someone with a little personality in the clubhouse. The only con.: the GPS system on the carts need to be adjusted cause it’ll cut out on you when you’re in a Fairway pasture type grass and it will not let you go through. Even though I’ve played the course probably a dozen times or more I still get caught and the cart quits so this needs to be adjusted. People aren’t gonna drive too close to your green but when the grass it can tolerate a cart then it needs to be adjusted accordingly. This review sent out by the EGA.(emergency golf association.)

Restaurant staff great!

Pro shop staff could be more engaging!

Overall a great day even with the rain and crazy wind!

Poorly Managed!!!

Let me start with the positive…the greens are in great shape. That’s it!!! The rest of the course is in terrible shape. They are clearly not maintaining the course other than the greens. It’s obvious they invest all their maintenance budget on the greens. They’re simply “mowing the lawn” on all other areas of the course with absolutely no love and care. The bunkers were hard as concrete with compacted dirt versus sand. I’m a Stoneybrook West resident and play golf every week…I was embarrassed inviting my playing buddies to this course. What is going on?!!! The management company needs to be held accountable. This is sad!

Nice course

This course has a decent layout and is fun to play. It was extremely wet when we went but overall not that bad shape. Overall not bad for the amount paid at less than $40 per person.

Always a Pleasure to Play Here

First and foremost, the staff here is among the friendliness around. Everyone goes the little extra to make sure you have an enjoyable day. Even the workers who are out on the course make sure to stop what they are doing so that you can concentrate on your shots. Any review that says otherwise isn't telling you the whole story. There are two sides to every complaint. As for the course, the tee boxes are chewed up a little but I always found someplace to set my tee which was fine. The fairways have some rough spots but definitely fewer than most. Greens are beautiful. The only negative I can mention is that there is only one water fountain on the whole course and that is toward the back 9. I travel 1 1/2 hrs to play here and it's because of the A+ staff and a fun course. If you haven't tried it it comes highly recommended

Work in progress

Greens were in excellent shape. Most of the fairways had grass and decent shape. The rough area needs a lot of work. At a lower price point this is a decent course

Best Greens in Orlando?

I don’t usually write reviews, but the greens at Stoneybrook West are easily some of the best in Orlando. The fairways and tee boxes are fine, but for the money, these greens are top tier!

"Calling this a golf course is an insult to the sport.

t.

The grass was overgrown, there was mud everywhere, and we lost over 10 balls right in the middle of the fairway due to the terrible maintenance—which constantly delayed our group.

To make things worse, even with no one playing behind us, the course marshal repeatedly disrupted our game instead of allowing us to enjoy the round. At one point, I had to ask him to help find the balls we kept losing in plain sight.

And to top it all off, there isn't even a place to take a shower after the round.

I will never return."
