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.

This course has a lot to offer at a great price
I’m just moved to the area three weeks ago and have been early awaiting my first round of golf. There are a handful of courses in my zip code and this was one of them. With no expectations going into this round, I was delighted with the overall experience. Facilities are good, pro shop stocked with good material, sizable practice putting green and driving range. My favorite aspect is the course layout. Simply put, it’s just fun! Course design is unique, interesting, and a fun test of your skills. Bunkers on the back 9 need some work, actually a lot of work, but the front 9 bunkers are very playable. Greens are smooth and roll nicely. Tee boxes are in good shape. Through Golf Now my round was $34- for that I’ll come back as often as possible!
Stonewolf
Overall condition of course pretty good despite not having any significant rain for a while. Greens are in better condition than previous years. Course layout is challenging despite the changes to a Jack N signature course. Why?? I’m sure he’d be disappointed. Bunkers shameful except for 16 and 17. Why not finish fixing the rest?
Pevely in great condition
Course in fine shape. Greens in especially great shape , rough is manageable. Bunkers average. Overall course in fantastic shape. Zach said we will play again ASAP
Stone wolf
If I didn't have the hot deal price I would have been verydisappointed. This was the worst I've ever seen this course. And the concrete traps, thats right not sand. Stone Wolf use to be known for all the sand traps. This was a joke. You couldn't play out of them.
Very disappointed!!!
First Timer
First time playing at Stonewolf Golf Course and loved it! Early morning tee time and the club house was open and the young man working the counter was great. Asked him if there was any tips to playing the course and his reply was "Don't be afraid!" LOL The club house is nicely laid out and stocked. Beautiful building with a nice bar and dining area. The course was incredible and in great condition. Did not expect the elevation changes. Felt like I was playing in Northern Michigan again. Narrow fairways lots of trees & pines lining them. The fairways were in great condition as well as the greens. Nothing real flat about the greens. Had a few blind shots off the tee but that just made me think more about placing my shots. The only negative things I can think of would be some of the bunkers were not in the best of conditions and the golf cart was a little on the sluggish side. Specially when it came to climbing some of the hills I had to go up. Overall gorgeous course, great staff and would definitely go back again! This time would play two rounds in a day instead of just one. Thanks for a great time!
terrible Amenities
Course was in great condition. Trying to get food and beer after was a nightmare.
One of my area favorites
No coMplaints…enjoy every round when I get the chance to come out that way.
Not worth the money for its condition
This course used to be amazing! Sand was like concrete. Greens are average for the time Of the year. Range balls are extremely old.
Several old sand traps are just grass now for some reason.
Jack Nicklaus would remove his name if he saw it yesterday.
