Stonewolf Golf Club

Nice course, well kept. Enjoyed playing there. It can be priced too high at times.

Preface this review with the fact it was 35* and overcast with a slight breeze the day after New Year's. There was a group teeing off right before us and another starting 20 min later so the staff (very friendly btw) let us start on 10, so we didn't run into anyone all day! Obviously since it is winter it was cart path only, but that was the only thing that slowed pace. Also, since it was winter I won't focus on course condition, though it was very much playable. Now, the best part for last...what an absolute gem of a design...drastic elevation changes, forced carries, undulating greens, strategically placed/deep bunkers, water challenges all in a magnificently beautiful setting! I can't wait to play it again in season!!

I wasn't sure which tees to play, so I picked the middle (blue). I will move back a set when I play there again, but it was nice not feeling beat up when I was finished. The course was in good shape despite recent heavy rain. The greens were slower than I expected, but with the multiple levels that was probably a good thing. Lots of elevation change throughout made the club selection on the tee very important. I really enjoyed the variety of holes. The short par 4's make for a fun round. I play very fast when I'm alone. Two groups let me play through with no trouble, and was able to play in 2 1/2 hours before it got dark. I will definitely play it again.

The layout and routing are really interesting and often challenging. Greens where very good to excellent; fairways were good, but I have played better zoysia. Some of the traps were horrible; hard packed; bottomed out next to french drains. Signs that indicated to me that staffing of maintenance might be less than needed.
Would probably play again because of how interesting the layout is, but certainly would expect better conditions in traps (since there are so many).

We love this coarse. You will want to stay out of the many deep bunkers that weren't taken care of. Greens need attention.

I can never turn down playing this course for less than $40. This is one of my favorite courses to play in the St. Louis area. Challenging holes but not impossible. I would highly recommend checking this place out.

Upity help for a public course. Layout not bad, had help from a local veteran named Allen. Greens were horrid. Ball would leave putting surface 6 to 8 times in a 6ft putt. Hairy and horribly taken care of. Ball marks poorly fixed. Little to no sand in pot bunkers, though landed in only in a couple. Would have been enjoyable if better taken care of. The company of someone familiar with the course, was the only thing that kept me and my wife from leaving short.

This summer has been good for golf. This course is still green and in great shape. Stonewolf has the friendliest staff around. Go play it today.

It was too hot to play, which, when coupled with a wet course that meant carts had to stay on the paths and a lack of drinking water on the course, made it a bad overall experience. The course is a fun course and moderately challenging during better conditions, but the staff could have provided more watering holes on the course. We never even saw a refreshment cart until we drove off the course.

The course, tee boxes and greens were in perfrect shape. We played on a rainey day and it had rained hard the previous two days so the bunkers were in poor shape. But looking at the course I doubt that is the case normally.

This course was one of the most beautiful and fun courses I've ever played. Cliff shots, accessible par 5s, and fun course to ride in the cart up and down hills. But when it comes to the staff, they need a reality check. The pace of play was awful. It took us 5+ hours to play on a Friday afternoon. They sent groups of 6 off in front of us on hole 10 while making the turn. They had no rangers making sure the pace of play was maintained. Waited 10 minutes at least per shot. 3 to 4 groups on every hole. The head pro told us right before we teed of the pace would get moving after the first tee. He eneded up playing behind us the whole time and if be thought that pace was normal he must not know how to run a golf course. The staff was incompetent and things need to be run differently there. I would go back strictly for the course design and views. But if I had to wait that long on each hole, I'd complain and demand my money back.

Really enjoyed this course and it was a really great deal. However, there was a foursome in front of is with an extra two people watching them that took forever. We waited a minimum of 5 minutes every hole. The rangers yelled at them, but they did not speed up. They had a 12 year old with them who was not playing but would just drive the cart around. The watchers would hang back so we couldn't hit even if the golfers were on the green. The little kid would play in the sand and not rake anything. If it wasn't for the group in front of us, everything would be 5 stars. Staff is very friendly and cart girl comes by every 3 holes.

I love the golf course and continue to give the course a chance at getting the greens at least close to the level of the numerous surrounding courses where the greens are truly excellent but once again bad experience. The greens once again were rough, slow and just plain awful. The Head Pro was very courteous and yet when I asked how are the greens he said 'they are excellent'. I can only come to the conclusion he unfortunately does not get a chance to play at Spencer Olin, Far Oaks, Annbriar to name a few in the area that truly do have 'excellent' greens. While the price is good, there are simply too many other courses in the area where the greens are in great condition. Disappointed yet again.

Went out just expecting a decent time and was amazed with the beauty and overall play of the course. I am definitely going back here very soon!

Great course, excellent condition and challenging all for a great price! If in the area a must play.

The course overall was set up very nice. I could only use my driver on a couple holes which was fine by me, precise golfing is usually fun. The bad part of the day was waiting 5-10 minutes on the tee box and sometimes out in the fairway. The greens were by far the worst I have played in a long time, it looked like they hadn't been mowed in a week. The bunkers were absolutely atrocious.

Alot of blind shots. Patchy greens on a few but overall greens in great shape. Play was slow because of people making the turn off 10 and starting before last tee time of day, ours, gets started. Beautiful course. Very challenging.

This course offers positional play, let it rip driving holes and short and long par 3's. The Illinois soil makes for near perfect fairway and rough conditions. The only negative is the greens curently have a surface that is not very predictableball speed wise.

Play the twilight at 30.00 and have a great round.

Second time playing the course but I have to say the condition was outstanding! The fairways were just about perfect. The greens hold beautifully. Very much worth your time to play Stonewolf!

Weather was great. Greens still had sand pebbles from aeration. Short putts didn't roll accurately
