About
Stonewolf Golf Club is one of only four courses designed by Jack Nicklaus in Illinois and Missouri and it is also one of his only public access designs. Nicklaus created a shotmaker's layout with a variety of different holes. He also incorporated his signature style of bunkering, which you'll remember for their shape, design, and placement. This is not a golf course where you'll be able to just grip it and rip it. Thoughtful strategy and careful club selection off the tees are essential for doing well. Stonewolf Golf Club opens with a tough trio of holes, ending with a short par 4 that requires a forced carry to a severe green that features a tricky elevation change right in the middle of the surface. There is also a lateral hazard on the left, and five bunkers bordering the right side.

Beautiful course in great shape.
This course is in great shape. Greens roll fast and are soft enough to spin the ball. Easily the best public course in the metro east for the price.
Slow play and no marshals
There were no marshals on this course so pace of play was not good. My son and I played and it took a little over 5 hours, had to wait on every shot. People throwing down 2-3 balls, hitting extra balls constantly. I can’t recommend anyone to play a 5+ hour round of golf.
Great Bang for your buck
Had an early tee time. Pace of play was excellent and course was in pretty good condition except for a few bunkers. Will play again!
Undulations and Elevations
This is an interesting Jack Nicklaus design that gives several risk vs. reward opportunities on most holes. I enjoyed the greens which had undulations, swales, and were protected by large bunkers. I had to always be aware of the slopes on some of the fairways when launching my drives. The staff was very friendly, and the course is a must play for the St. Louis region.
One of the best...
One of the top courses in the greater St. Louis area. Tough course.
Stonewolf
Course is in great shape.
Some of the bunkers still need work.
Fairways in good shape.
On the way up
The last couple of years Stonewolf has had some greens keeping issues, but they now have the Head greens keeper Steve from Gateway and you can see the many new projects being addressed around the course. Including beautiful new white sand replacing the old (dirt sand) and continued aeration , seeding and sod placement around the course
Have always liked this course
Played as a single. Was not rushed and did not wait for the two-some in front of me. Course is in good condition. Couple of areas they are working on, so there is some ground under repair. Wish it was about $10 to $15 cheaper, then I would probably play it all the time.
Staff were very friendly. Pace of play was good. We played 9 in 2 hours. Great to have a drink cart, it was a hot day. Only negative was sand traps (yes, sadly, I was in one), were hard sand ). Fun course. We will be back. Thank you
- slowest round I have played in years. Too may slow players and no marshal. wont go back
