Stony Creek Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Stony Creek is part of the Huron-Clinton Metroparks system and many locals consider it to be one of its gems. There aren't any residences near the golf course, giving it a secluded feel and providing unhindered views from the elevated tees. The course opened in 1976 but underwent a major renovation that included re-sculpting the bunkers and reconditioning the entire golf course. The layout features several doglegs and a surprising amount of elevation changes. The fairways are tightly lined with trees and bunkers are strategically placed along the greensides and landing zones. There are also lakes and ponds that come into play on six holes on the front nine and three on the back. Stony Creek's par-3 17th is the most memorable water hole and the 14th is also notable for its tiny "postage stamp" green.

Course review
Challenging course, polite helpful staff. It is now my wife’s favorite golf course!
Course in excellent condition. Obvious that work was done over the winter. New electric carts. Great way to start the season.
Greens
At 72 I find the senior tees is where I belong.
All the Metro Parks play long from the white tees but are way to short on a lot of holes from the Senior boxes. That's a different issue.
Tee boxes on some holes were in real need.
Number 17 boxes were sand. A lot more Hard pan areas then previous years. Greens were SLOW! Aeration scares from last year made them very bumpy and slow. Hope to follow up when conditions improve in summer.
Poor management
I brought a client out for a round and we had an awful time. The course looked great but the tee times were very mismanaged. There was a wait on tee times from frost, but the rangers just sent everyone out one after the other as soon as it cleared. We waited on every hole for more than 20 minutes all day until we finally just left the golf course on the 11th hole. I was very disappointed in the management on how they failed to get everyone out correctly and also to manage place of play. I expected more from this golf course.
Beautiful Day To Play
Great day to golf. Great course with many challenges. Fall golf in Michigan means leaves. The only downside was finding balls off the fairways in the leaves and some greens with leaves.
Decent course but abused and overrun with leaves
This course is usually very nice but once the fall hits golfers get sloppy and trash the course and leaves are hard to content with trying to find your ball. Had to wait over 45 minutes sure to frost so bear if golfing in the morning after frost.
Stoney Creek
Second time coming out here, was a nice layout with challenge and greens were nice. Will be back soon.
