Sad

A great course 4 years back has now become one of the worst. The layout is still great but the fairways, tee boxes, and sand traps are garbage. No maintenance at all. Totally burned out. I can’t see this course making a turn. The only maintenance done is on the greens.

This is a shame and certainly not worth the 100 plus bucks..

great layout. tough to maintain

A very nice course in a pristine location. A great balance of hills and views. And multiple tee boxes to play up to my ability without getting too frustrated:)

Have heard the quality has dropped in the past two years

Almost every tee box needed clean up and mowed. Most fairways looked like someone drove a 4-wheeler through and tore them up. Everything else looked overgrown and poorly maintained. Greens were in good shape.

Course went severely downhill in the past year

Bunkers are unkept. Tees and fairways need major maintenance. Huge dead spots on several fairways. Greens used to be perfect, now they are below average.

Great course but average conditions

I’ve played the course numerous time but the quality of the course has gone down the past three or four years. The fairways and traps need work

Great Layout Let Down By Management

Lodestone is an absolutely wonderful course design, with a number of truly memorable holes and only one or two gimmicky setups.

Unfortunately, the course is very poorly maintained. Tee boxes are chopped up, bunkers are gravel pits, and virtually every fairway has at least some drainage problem that has led to ruts and mud. Greens are large, undulating, and covered with hallmarks that are repaired infrequently at best. Such a shame because this course could be great.

This is an ammendment to my previous review. There aren't any marshalls on this course (at least when I played). When I arrived to the 10th tee, there were 2 foursomes and a twosome that went straight to the 10th from the clubhouse that jumped in front of me. None of them would allow me to play through as a single. I know that's a risk you take playing by yourself but it's just frustrating to turn a 2.5 hour round into a 4.5 hour round. There were not any golfers ahead of me previous to this.

Beautiful course. Lots of potential.

Loved the design and nice views on most of the holes. Course condition was decent but drainage areas on fairways looked like they had just been unplugged and after the recent heavy rains made for some very soggy areas. Most sand traps were ratty looking with grass growing in them and erosion filling them in. Other than that I’d play this course as often as I could (or afford) if I lived closer. Basically this could be a tour level course with a bunch of work although I doubt most players could walk it because of the distance between holes and some of the grades.
