Stone River Golf Club

About
Previously known as Aaki Ranch International Golf Course, Stone River Golf Club is a basic, homemade 18-hole track that opened in 1997, featuring rolling Bermuda pastures, manmade lakes, and young trees. Playing only 6,487 yards from the tips with minimal trees lining the fairways, you’ll be able to swing hard and let it rip.
Getting there : From Dallas, head east on I-30 for about 25 miles to exit 77B (FM35). Turn right at the stop onto FM 35, then continue about 1 mile. Turn right onto FM 2453 and drive another .5 miles. The golf course is on your right

Much improved
This course had been very neglected. It was very refreshing to see the difference with a new management group.
not worth the price for the quality of course
the ground is extremely hard on parts of the fairway and there are a lot of dirt spots throughout the course. also there are no bunkers, so it’s decent for beginners. but for $50 per person not really worth it, there are far better courses that are way cheaper and for not much more you could get access to a far greater course
Much improved
Course is much improved, greens are in bear shape I have seen. They are making improvements daily, course plays great.
Hard tee boxes and tall grass
The tee boxes were very hard. I broke many tees trying to set them.
The fairways were not cut properly. The grass was a bit high which made finding the ball that much more difficult.
Fun track could be better with more work
My normal group wasn't playing so I played as a single. Staff added me to a threesome and off we went. Range is short. Short irons only. No issues with that. At least I got to warm up. Based on the reviews I wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised.
Course layouts was fun with plenty of open space but challenging tee shots on bseveral holes. Greens we generally good but very slow. Chips tenderd to rollout 2-3x further than expected so I had a lot of long putts that I generally left short. Part of the game I supposed. I chalked that up to never playing there before.
There were two holes that had temp tee boxes as they tried to fix the fairways. Some tee boxes were very torn up and super hard to sink a tee but at least they were mostly level. No gps on carts so it was good I had my GPS with me. Def helped
All in all I liked it and will go back again. If they had a dedicated maintenance program to soften up the greens, make them more receptive and grow the fairway and tee boxes back, it would be a hidden gem.
Staff was friendly and helpful. This is not some high end course. As long you know that going in, you will have a good time. It's a small muni that wasn't expensive. Def worth the green fee today. Will go back for sure.
Much improved
The course is coming along nicely! They had crews out laying sod and making other improvements while I was there which was great to see. Course conditions are much better than what they’ve been the last year or so.
Much better
They are working their butt off to make this course nice. The staff is GREAT, except for the middle aged lady that works the desk (Not Miss T). Everyone is so nice except her. She is rude no matter the day or time.
Has Potential
Convenient and affordable, course conditions are very bad due to a staff member that oversprayed.
Very beginner friendly and enjoyable course other than poor conditions and greens that were inconsistent due to lack of watering.
Repairs in Progress
I am happy to announce that the new Superintendent is repairing the damage caused by last summer's drought and neglect. The fairway grass will be back and things will be green again. The greens are already recovering and looking better every day. Excess rains caused a slow down in the plans but they are back at it again. New seed and sod will fix the worst of it but these things take time to grow. They were not able to mow due to the rain and are caught up again on the mowing. The fertilizer certainly did it's job. Please be patient, they are working hard to get Stone River back into the shape it needs to be in and the quality the members and guests have come to expect.
Good shape
This is the 3rd time I've played here and it was in the best shape of those visits. The only problem was long grass or clumps of recently mowed grass in fairways -- we lost 2 or 3 balls that had clearly landed in the fairway, but were unable to spot them. Otherwise, enjoyed it.
Horrible condition
Apparently they do not have a greens keeper or course maintenance staff. Fairways appeared to have not been maintained or mowed in months. Course (fairways included) full of muddy low spots, damage and ruts, grass was patched here and there on several holes, but grass was 6-8 inches high because of not mowing. One hole was 80% mud and not grass. Would not recommend.
Laid back place
Came a couple days after it rained so tough to grade conditions fairly. However, hit or miss conditions. Pace of play was good, over solid, nothing spectacular. Good people and good experience, I was able to teach my younger brother golf and had a great time.
Like playing in a pasture
In rough, overgrown state. Course wasn’t even fun. Lost 3 balls in the middle of the fairway!!! Like what the heck
Cloudy Day
Greens had been aerated and sanded recently - so no problem there. I knew what to expect - even though it was not what i had hoped for. But, I know the greens need it during the year. It had rained that week, so it was cart path only - extremely muddy!! Some of the fairways seemed to have as much mud (bald spots) as grass, which is what I think was most disappointing.
On the first hole I thought I just saw wet piles of grass in the "fairway, but when I got down there, it was just dirt and the fairways had not been mown (10:30 am). I really hoped I was going to see fairways, but I was wrong. I would definitely say the pictures are deceiving (a perfect day on one of the holes that had been freshly mown). The driving range there is not worth the money. Irons only and $10 for about 60 balls. It was good enough to get loosened up before the round. All in all, I don't expect I'll be driving back over there for another round.
