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
Course under renovation. Staff doing outstanding job bringing course back. Some of the challenge has been reduced due to the removal and redesign of bunkers. Worth playing.
WANT TO LOVE SBW!
I feel like Jimmy Neutron's dad ( from the cartoon) every time I play here. "CRABGRAAAASSSS!!!" Seriously, the crabgrass and clover patches are OUT OF CONTROL here. If you don't play pick and place here, you just like crashing out and throwing a club in the pond. You will want to. The greens are surprisingly good, even looking like the surface of the moon. I think the starter, and cart girls need to just literally THROW Divot tools at every player they see. That's how many unfixed green divots are on these otherwise fantastic greens. The layout is great. The course is challenging, but it would honestly be my favorite course if I wasn't having to move my ball off a giant weed root once a hole. There's also a big issues with either drainage, or the grounds team not deactivating sprinklers when it's raining alot. The grass will either look dry, or be dry on the top, and you take a divot that looks like WW1 trench mud, eating half your swing before you come to the ball. The staff is friendly. Prices are good. But PLEASE fix the turf issues. I would rather be told "hole XX is closed for a MONTH, skip it" and eventually be able to play a fantastic course in a year.
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.)

Greens were smooth.
Course in much better condition than last year! Still some rougher areas but much improved.
Restaurant staff great!
Pro shop staff could be more engaging!
Overall a great day even with the rain and crazy wind!
Thank You.....
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!
New ownership has failed this once nice course
The course is in terrible condition except for the greens which were ok. New ownership has not made this what it once was.
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
Great value course !
Probably the best course around for your money. Very good condition overall, friendly people inside, will be back for sure !!
