Scenic Course nice round

Lodestone was far superior to Fantasy Valley . When visiting Deep Creek would recommend. Course is challenging and scenic. Bunkers weren’t in the best condition. Gas carts put a damper on the day. Course is very wet til noon.

Don’t think I’d want to play it in the fall..

Better stay in the fairway!

Beautiful course and nice layout from tee to green. Not sure it’s worth $100 but it was definitely worth the $50 Hot Deal on GolfNow. The course was in great shape but it’s extremely penalizing if you don’t keep it in the fairway or green. Most of the course is surrounded by knee length fescue that basically eats balls. Bunkers were raked and greens were true. Putting/chipping green was well maintained but the driving range was more like something you’d find at a municipal course. It’s definitely the best course in the Oakland / Mchenry area and I would definitely play it again.

Fantastic views,great layout.

Two complaints: First-sand traps were lousy, grass growing, hard pack, not very well kept. Second- very poor food/snacks selection.

Loved Loadstone Golf Course

From tee boxes to greens the course was well cared for. The views from some of the fairways were incredible. Looking forward to another round tomorrow.

Decent Course, overpriced

This course is decent for a weekend golf trip to Deep Creek, but EXTREMELY over priced. The bunkers are not well maintained, the course itself was in fair enough shape, but not $120 worth shape. It is nice and open distinguishable fairways, however there are a lot of blind shots on this course which make for a first time round on the course extremely difficult to know where you’re target is. The pace of play was extremely slow. The starter told us a round for 4 people would be 4 1/2 hours regardless, but the slow/inexperienced vacation golfers in front of us made the round 5 1/2 hours long. Beware of missing fairways and immediately being in the woods. Fairways are big, but the rough is small leading directly into wood lines.

Challenging and fun

Always a great experience at Lodestone. Friendly and helpful staff. Course in great condition except the bunkers, which are in very poor shape.

Depends what matters

While pulling into the parking lot there was a small black bear knocking over the garbage can which was comical. The wildlife throughout the course is great and The views are spectacular.

The fairways and greens look good but they are wet and slow. The tee boxes are spongy with longer fairway like grass.

For $120/player I’d expect to have gps in carts or at least usb charger. A lot of bunkers in bad condition especially fairway bunkers which they let go growing grass and rocks throughout.
