Way over priced for conditions and service
Was in Scottsdale for a boys golf trip and since the first three rounds were a tie, we had to pick a course for a tie breaker. We chose this place and regretted it about 5 holes in when we saw most tee boxes were torn up and anything except the center of fairway was dirt instead of grass. The bunkers were medium to poor and the staff member at pro shop wasn’t too friendly or helpful. The snack cart and restaurant/cafe staff were very friendly.
Definitely not worth $140/player with tax and fees. This course is worth about $70/player.
Has potential and neat layouts but course conditions were very poor.
Course a Bit Odd
Found the course to not have a straight up hole. A lot of odd turns in the layout and cart parking far from the holes. Not overly challenging per se, because no long holes even from the tips and with some wind. Not in bad condition though, so that was good. More water and ditches than most courses I've played around Phoenix, which was frustrating. Sand was in good condition and not hard to get out of overall.
Thank you for your rating, chefbigjon. We appreciate your support and are always looking for ways to enhance our offerings. Your input is valuable to us, and we hope to provide you with a better experience next time.
Thank you for your 3-star review. We look forward to seeing you back out at Stonecreek again soon!
Great challenging course
I thought the course was a perfect blend of wide fairways but bunkers and obstacles to make it a challenge
One recommendation. Is to have the hole layout on the scorecard so golfers know how the hole layout is set up. All in all. A great experience ce.
Thank you for your fantastic review, edge9094! We're thrilled you enjoyed the course's design. Your suggestion for including hole layouts on the scorecard is appreciated and will be considered for future improvements. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great round!
This may have been my worst experience on a golf course.
We quit after 10 holes. There was a wait on every shot after the 3rd hole. It took 31/2 hours to that point. We were told they had two bachelorette parties and many of golfers first time. It would have taken at least 6 plus hours if we finished.
Greens were in poor shape!
Never will play here again…wasted a beautiful day on this crap!
Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating that must have been.
Pace of play is a major focus for us, and what you described is not the standard we aim to deliver. There are times where a high number of newer golfers or group play can impact flow, but our team is responsible for managing that and keeping the course moving. We will be addressing this with our staff to ensure better control and consistency.
I also appreciate your comments on the greens. We are actively working to improve conditions, including continued focus on maintenance practices and player awareness around ball mark repair.
We take your feedback seriously and will use it to improve the overall experience.

Thank you for you 5-star review. We look forward to seeing you out here again soon!

Management Absent
Sadly, a great day was impaired by poor course management. The stacking was oversold and the ranger failed to manage the pace of play extending a full round to nearly 6 hours. Easily fixable by being more engaged.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that pace of play impacted your experience.
Pace of play is a major focus for us, and we have Player Assistants on the course specifically to help manage flow and keep groups moving. I apologize that you did not see that level of engagement during your round. We will be reviewing this with our team to ensure better consistency and visibility moving forward.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to provide a better experience on your next visit.
Tricky course. Challenging but fun.
Great course if you’re renting clubs. Clubs were quality calaway and very complete set. Staff is superb. Try the smoked wings!!
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the experience, especially the quality of the rental clubs and the service from our team. It’s also great to hear you had a chance to try the smoked wings that’s a favorite for many of our guests. Next time you are out give the crushburger a try
We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you back at Stonecreek soon.
Pro shop staff needs an attitude adjustment
I reserved through golf now for 12:48 two days prior. It showed on their sheet at 12:57. The short dark haired guy in the pro shop said, “it was my problem and take it up with Golf Now”. He really had a sour attitude and was not grateful for my business.
The starter, who moved to AZ from NJ was friendly and seems to love his job. He almost made up for the jerk in the pro shop. The Marshalls were very friendly and helpful. The greenside bunkers need sand.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
I’m very sorry to hear about your experience in the golf shop that’s not the level of service we expect, and I apologize for how that was handled. We’ll be addressing this with our team. While tee times booked through GolfNow can occasionally differ on our end, we should always work to assist you, not pass the issue along.
I’m glad to hear the starter and Player Assistants made a positive impression, and I’ll be sure to share that with them.
Thank you as well for the note on bunker conditions we are continuing to work on improving sand levels.
We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide a better overall experience on your next visit.
Staff unfriendly
The course itself is in rough shape overall, but pretty much met expectations for the price. We had an early morning tee time and teed off on the back nine. We were the first ones out and there was nobody behind us the entire time. What I didn’t appreciate at all were the groundskeepers racing in front of us for the first 5 holes to do their work. I understand needing to keep the grounds nice, but why not just let us play through instead of racing to the greens, only to have us on top of you 2 minutes later? I’ve been playing golf for 30 years and have never had this experience.
We finished the round and headed to the clubhouse for breakfast. The staff there were just as impatient as on the course. It was to the point of being rude, and again, the place was deserted.
Idk, overall a disappointing experience and unlikely worthy of another try
Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry your experience fell short.
I apologize for the disruption from our grounds crew. We understand how frustrating that can be, and we’ll be addressing it with our team to ensure better awareness and coordination moving forward.
I’m also sorry to hear about your experience in the clubhouse. That’s not the level of service we expect to provide, and we’ll be following up internally.
We appreciate you sharing your perspective and will use it to improve.
Good for the price in March
Most courses are overpriced in March. The the price this was a good value.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that the value we provide matched you expectations. We hope to see you back out at Stonecreek another time.
Thank you for your 4-star review!
Scary course
After hole #8 there's a walking trail that actually goes onto the course. Dozens of people walking, walking dogs or pushing strollers. I asked a few if they were aware of the danger of walking on a golf course. Some said they've seen people hit. One said "lots of people have dogs". I guess that makes it okay??
This course is a safety hazard. I just don't want anyone bleeding on my ball.
They have a nine and dine that we were told dropped players on hole 10 slowing down play for the golfers making the turn.
We contemplated staying at the Embassy Suites so we could play the course when we weren't at spring training games. Not gonna happen now that we won't be playing the course again.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
First and foremost, safety is extremely important to us, and we take any situation involving potential risk on the course very seriously. We are aware of the walking path in that area, and while it is outside of our control as a shared public space, we continuously work to improve awareness and signage to help educate both golfers and pedestrians about staying clear of playing areas. Your comments are taken seriously, and we will review additional ways to reinforce safety and communication in that location.
Regarding your comments on pace of play and the Nine & Dine format, our goal is always to create a smooth and enjoyable experience for all golfers. We recognize how different programs can impact flow, and we actively manage tee sheet spacing and Player Assistant oversight to help maintain pace throughout the day.
I’m also sorry to hear that your experience has impacted your decision to return. That is certainly not the outcome we want for any of our guests. Your feedback is valuable, and we will use it to continue evaluating both our operations and communication efforts.
Thank you again for sharing your feedback.
Lots of hills!
Challenging course that was in real good shape. The greens were fast. Friendly cart girl, check in man and cart guy were great!
Thank you for the great feedback we really appreciate it!
We’re glad you enjoyed the challenge of the course and that the conditions and green speeds stood out. It’s also great to hear our cart staff, check-in team, and beverage service made such a positive impression. I’ll be sure to share your comments with the team.
Thanks again for playing Stonecreek, and we look forward to seeing you back out again soon!
Thank you for the 3-star review. We hope to see you back at the course soon!
Dry as rock
Starting out, over half the water stations had no water. But that more or less matched the course. Dry, hard pan most places.
Greens were pock-marked excessively and dry, as well.
Will not play this course again.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations.
The water stations should absolutely be stocked, especially given the importance of staying hydrated while playing in Arizona. I will address this with our team so we can ensure they are being checked and refilled more consistently throughout the day.
Regarding the greens and course conditions, we do our best to maintain healthy playing surfaces, but excessive ball marks can unfortunately impact the quality of the greens. Our maintenance team and our Player Assistants help repair ball marks as they circulate the course, while also encouraging players to fix their own.
We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention, as feedback like this helps us improve the overall experience. We hope that you will give us another chance in the future!
Wonderful links-type course in the middle of town
We played a late tee time ( 2:18) on a Wednesday and finished 18 just before it got too dark to see the ball! ( around 6:45). Slow play due to some foursomes a couple holes ahead. I wish there had been a Marshall to speed them up. The course is great- a real hidden treasure just 10 minutes from our house.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re glad to hear you enjoy the course and consider it a hidden treasure so close to home.
It’s great to know you appreciate the layout and were able to get your full round in before dark. We recently put in to effect a pace of play of 4 hours and 23 minutes with that said, I’m sorry to hear the pace slowed down later in the round. Our Player Assistant team is out on the course helping manage pace, especially when the tee sheet is full, and we will certainly continue focusing on maintaining consistent visibility to help keep groups moving.
We appreciate the kind comments about the course and are happy to have you as a local player. We look forward to seeing you back out at Stonecreek again soon.
Lots of character!
The course was super fun. It has a lot of character and each hole has a personality of its own. Whether it's dry creeks, water, doglegs, or undulating fairways, it will make you think about each shot. Starter was a bit unfriendly and I heard someone else mention that he was in a bad mood. However, the cart guys were super nice.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the course and its layout. Stonecreek does have a lot of character, and it’s great to know the variety of holes and shot options made the round fun and engaging.
I’m also happy to hear our cart staff made a positive impression and took good care of you. At the same time, I’m sorry to hear that your interaction with the starter didn’t reflect the same level of friendliness. That’s not the experience we want guests to have when beginning their round, and I will be addressing that with our team.
We appreciate you playing at Stonecreek and hope to see you back out again soon.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate the detail you provided.
I understand your comments regarding the layout. Stonecreek does have a more unique routing with a number of turns.
I’m glad to hear the course conditions and bunkers met your expectations. We also understand that the water features and wash areas can present challenges, particularly with the wind, but they are part of the course’s design and character.
Thank you again for the honest feedback. It’s always helpful as we continue to evaluate the overall experience.
