Type Public
Par 72
Length 7117 yards
Slope 135
Rating 74.4

Long and susceptible to the wind, White Stone Golf Club rolls through an impressive Hill Country-like setting with huge oak trees, lots of rocks, and loads of native oaks, cacti, yucca, and wildflowers.

Bunkers are everywhere on this 7,100-yard Jeff Brauer design, and water comes into play on about seven holes. The key to scoring well is keeping the ball below the hole, avoiding nasty downhill putts on the extremely fast greens. White Stone's par 5s are tough, and average golfers should probably play them conservatively and be happy just getting there in three, since three out of four are fronted by hazards and require carries.

On the front nine, no. 1 tests you early -- it’s a 555-yarder with a creek that crosses the fairway and forces a layup on the second shot. No. 9 is nice as well, a 360-yarder that should be played with a short iron to lay up in front of the creek. This hole features a nice dip in the center of the green that requires knowing the correct pin placement.

White Stone Golf Club's back starts strong like the front, opening with a 580-yard par 5 with a sloping fairway that is cut by the creek on two occasions. No. 11 is the best par 3 on the golf course -- a 200-yarder that plays dow hill over a creek and into a creek surrounded by bunkers.

Quit due to pace of play

this course needs to improve on multiple levels. first off, the pace of play was terrible. I quit after 3.25 hours of play which only got me to the 11th tee box. I understand it was a Saturday, but a 6 plus hour round of golf is not enjoyable for anyone. the course needs some work as well, the bunkers were unplayable. some even had grass growing through them. I will not play here again in the near future until I hear things have changed.

Not a Great Experience

We were disappointed that the greens had just been sanded and we were neither told about it nor offered a discount. Also, there were no coolers on the carts. We like to keep our drinks cold and keep our towels cold and wet. They did have soft side coolers in the bar but they only held 4 drinks. The course is set in a sort of a valley so there is no breeze and it was about 95 degrees that day. For what we paid, I don' think it was much of a value. There are other courses closer to us which offer better value.

Give it a try, but do NOT get into the bunkers.

The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Tee boxes, fairways, greens are in excellent condition, the rough is challenging.

Bunkers are awful: there are more rocks in them than sand.

Not Right Now

They've punched the greens. Long way from recovered. I wouldn't return for at least a month. Not enough sand applied to fill holes. Putts jump. Impossible scoring. Punched in mid June? We should have waited till end of July

Good experience

Course is improving. A bit to go, but better. While I am not a fan of being in a sand trap, I feel they should be in good shape. While at any course there are times when they must be pristine, I am also a realist and know the traps have another level. FYI. I want to get a club membership, but the receivership status concerns me. Anyway it was a good day!

Rate Increased

Made reservations to play and was given a tee time and price quote. When arriving at the course they said the rate would be $15 more per player. No thanks. Tried to talk with someone in charge but to no avail. This is not how you run a golf course.

Response from on 08/22/2017:
We apologize for the misunderstanding at the course today, if this ever happens again we urge you to speak with the head professional or general manager so that there is no discrepancy next time. Thank you for coming out and we hope to see you again in the near future.

The course layout is nice and challenging. It's a pretty course. But... the sand traps are not sand, they're dirt traps and the greens are super slow and in rough condition.

There are a number of hidden shots yo landing areas. There could be better signage in a number of areas for next tee etc. I think second visit would be a much better experience than first

For a Memorial Day weekend there wasn't "a good atmosphere of a good time" shall I say. Need to have someone selling beverages on the course. Maybe some music playing outside on the patio. Called next day about playing in there tournament and the lady had no info on it besides the tournament started at 1:00. Great layout,easy course, granite I didn't play well for the first time out there. Sand traps needed good sand in the bunkers. Looked like they were getting them ready for sand. I hope. Easy off the tee. Tough to play after that. Which I like. But it had great views. Nice homes around the course. Could be a really fun place to go monthly and take guest to

Good course for the money

Good course for the money. Greens were in decent shape, there were a few bare/rough areas but the pins were positioned in areas that mostly avoided them. The bunkers are a different story, almost all of them have absolutely no sand and were in terrible condition- highly suggest just playing it as ground under repair and going on about your day.

No martial monitoring tee times or on course pace of play. I had a 2:45 tee time and didn't tee off until almost 3 because a group of 9 high schoolers pushed everything back. Played 9 holes in just under 3 hours, at the turn was able to speak with a manager to get permission to go around the 9-some and come back and play the holes that I skipped. Once we were clear of them the round really picked up.

Pace of play

I'm not going to go in depth...but I went home after the turn when I saw 4 carts piled up on 10. Up to that point it had taken me a little over 2.5 hrs and I shot a 38...so quite a bit of time waiting around. No one enforcing rate of play, just driving around chit chatting with friends.

Course is not in good shape

I have played WhiteStone over 10 times and this is the worse shape I have ever seen it. The Bunkers were terrible, the greens and tees were struggling for grass. The fairways were really good. I am hoping it turns around in the next couple months. The pace of play was fair. For the price I can't complain to much I just am writing this to let other golfers know WS is not the same as it used to be. I will go play again.
