First Time Playing

Course has been neglected but is improving. Pace of play, however, was terrible.

Course itself was nice for the most part. Greens had a few slight imperfections and rolled very fast but you could tell they were growing in well. Would appreciate the opportunity to play the course again if pace of play is managed correctly. Bunkers were hard as concrete and had rocks in them.

The two-star review comes from the terrible pace of play with no correction to be given by course staff. We were warned that it was their busiest day to date by course staff, who was very nice and apologetic, but even after receiving multiple complaints, the ranger(s) did nothing about play pace and left the course and went home before anyone finished their round. We were stuck behind 3 foursomes that were essentially playing altogether as one group of 12.

Great staff, challenging course

Played in a foursome on Mother's Day with my wife and kids. The clubhouse staff couldn't have been more accommodating. It was a cold and wet day with the course being affected by rain and the surrounding geographic attributes affecting a mountainous course. We were rained on several times on the front nine and while waiting on the turn. We asked for a nine-hole rain check and were pleasantly surprised by an 18-hole raincheck/replay. We will definitely go back and try it later in the season when it is hopefully drier. The course just opened for the season ten days earlier, so we will give the course another shot in the season.

Best Golf Course

This is my favorite course to play. The challenge it gives, but the scenery is beautiful. It was cold and the pro shop had beanies to purchase to keep warm. I’m a Florida girl and I get cold easy.

I try to play it every year.

Tough But Fun

This course is not for the weak. Be prepared to lose some golf balls if you have never played here. Scenic course with a TON of elevation change. Pars feel rewarding here if you are competing against the scorecard.

Conditions are improving

Work is being done to improve overall playing conditions.

Tee boxes and greens are in good shape. Some fairways still need sand leveling to renovate the lost turf from precision grass freight but that does t really impact overall playing conditions

Value for the fall is some of the best in the state

Beautiful mountain course

Lodestone Golf Course is absolutely beautiful! The mountain views are amazing, and the homes around the course have stunning architecture that adds to the experience. A perfect place for a round of golf in a gorgeous setting.

Better Days Ahead?

I have not played the course in a number of years because of conditions. Recent reviews said that there were improvements so I decided to play. The reviews on the conditions of the greens were spot on. The greens have improved substantially and were very good. As for the rest of the course, I hope there will be improvements. The fairways on the front nine were decent, but this changed on the back nine. Swamp areas next to drains? Move tee markers to save tees. Keep up the improvements.

Turning the corner

The time that they're putting in to the course is coming around, but more importantly, the staff were really solid (younger guys).

only complaint was a 32 man bachelor party that was ahead of us; that slowed the pace so much we went home after the 12th hole.

Worth it

This place has come a long way. Driving range to warm up. Nice practice green. Tree boxes were taken care of. Greens were in great condition. Green side bunkers were fine. Take some free drops out of the fairway bunkers for now. They’ll get it fixed. Great track with great views. Will play again

A great course, in need of some loving care

Long time player at the course, having been there at the open. Greens and traps need some work but still a fun round.

Lodestone

Overall Lodestone is an excellent course.

Beautiful layout through the woods.

The greens were in excellent shape but the fairways had areas where the drainage needed to be improved. Certain areas were either dug up by carts in wet spots or dead.

Could benefit from a beverage cart as well.

Lodestone 7/20/25

Very nice well maintained course. The area had seen a lot of rain prior so it was cart path only. Which is fine with me.. Fairways were wet throughout but overall in great condition. Greens were as close to perfect as you can get. Nicest cart path I have seen. Scenery is awesome.
