Frequently Asked Questions

Which 18-hole combination offers the best experience at Stanley Golf Course?

We've played all the combinations, and for a truly varied round, we recommend the Red-Blue pairing. The Red nine starts with some tighter, tree-lined holes, while the Blue opens up a bit more, offering a nice contrast in shot-making. If you're looking for a slightly more forgiving start, White-Red is a solid choice.

What's the best time of year to play Stanley Golf Course, and what should I expect from the conditions?

For the best conditions and most comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall - think May-June or September-October. The course is usually in fantastic shape then, with lush fairways and true-rolling greens. Summer can get quite busy and hot, so book an early tee time if you're visiting in July or August.

Is Stanley Golf Course a good option for golfers who are still honing their game?

Absolutely, Stanley is quite welcoming for all skill levels, which we appreciate. The White nine is generally the most forgiving, with wider fairways and fewer forced carries, making it a great starting point. If you're a higher handicapper, consider playing the White-Red combination for a more relaxed and enjoyable 18 holes.

What's the pace of play typically like at Stanley Golf Course, especially on weekends?

Stanley can get pretty busy, especially on weekend mornings, so expect a steady pace - usually around 4.5 hours for 18 holes. We always recommend booking the earliest tee time you can snag if you want to avoid any potential slowdowns. Weekday afternoons are often much quicker if your schedule allows.

Are there any specific holes or features at Stanley Golf Course that really stand out?

Each nine has its moments, but we particularly enjoy the challenge of the par-3 5th on the Red nine, which often plays longer than its yardage suggests with a tricky green. On the Blue nine, the finishing stretch offers some great risk-reward opportunities that can make or break your round. You'll find a good mix of elevation changes and strategic bunkering across all three nines.
