Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Stonehouse Golf Club's layout so distinctive?

This is a Mike Strantz design, and you'll immediately notice his signature dramatic bunkering and bold greens. The course flows beautifully through natural ravines and dense woods, demanding thoughtful shot placement on every hole. It's a true test of strategy, not just power.

When is the best time of year to play Stonehouse, and what are the course conditions typically like?

We recommend visiting in the spring or fall when the weather is ideal and the course truly shines. You'll find the bentgrass greens typically roll true and fast, and the fairways are usually well-maintained, offering excellent lies. Avoid mid-summer if you're sensitive to heat, as it can get quite warm.

Are there any particularly memorable or challenging holes at Stonehouse that I should prepare for?

Absolutely, the back nine really stands out, especially the par-5 13th with its dramatic downhill tee shot and the challenging par-4 17th. You'll need to navigate significant elevation changes and strategically placed hazards, so bring your A-game and maybe an extra sleeve of balls.

What kind of overall experience can I expect at Stonehouse Golf Club, and is it good value?

Stonehouse offers a fantastic golf experience, especially for those who appreciate a unique, challenging design. While it's not a budget course, we think the quality of the layout and the natural beauty make it excellent value for a Strantz design. You're paying for a memorable round, not just 18 holes.

How is the pace of play typically at Stonehouse, and should I plan for a long round?

Given the challenging layout and the course's popularity, pace of play can sometimes be a factor, especially on busy weekends. We recommend booking an early tee time if you prefer a quicker round. Be prepared for a thoughtful round that might take a bit longer than average, but it's worth savoring.
