Stony Creek Golf Club

Nice, mildly challenging, well kept course efficiently run for a satisfying round. Pricing is reasonable and beer is available. Carts can use an upgrade to gps graphics to assist distances, hazards, etc.

The reason for my three stars is because of a time I played here in 2021. The manager on duty was very rude to me and my friends during a round that got rained out. We had to talk him into giving us a rain credit while only being on the 11th hole. However we are back today and while I'm hating the pin placement (on the edge of greens with hills) I was thrilled that they served breakfast sandwiches!! More courses need to serve breakfast items!

Friendly staff, great course - great hot dogs. Amazing condiment selection: horseradish, at least four relishes, and any sauce you need. Priced well and tasted better.

Really like the course, reasonably priced. Couple guys the work there are good dudes.. but a couple of the older guys that work there are just assholes. I don't think I have ever seen them in a good mood and just jerks. If they weren't there would just be better.

I guess reviewing a golf course (or anything else for that matter) depends where you are in life. In my case as an "every third weekend, middling handicapper", with an appreciation and eye for etiquette/dress/pace of play, this course fits the bill and is typically a good outing. Low handicappers or golfers who typically shell out $75 or more per round in the Indy area may be disappointed.I would probably be at 3.5 stars for the championship course and round up since there is a nice little par 3 and a good range facility.I would consider Stony Creek my home course and have probably played here 25 times or so over the years. The championship course plays right around 5800 from the whites and around 6300 to 6600 from blues and gold. There are also red and silver tees farther forward. As someone who can drive the ball OK (265-280), the white tees feel short and I usually play from the blues.The course is pretty well maintained; tee boxes, fairways, and greens are generally in good repair. Later into August things can dry up a bit and the tee boxes start to show wear. I find the greens to be slightly larger, roll slower, and are mostly vanilla in contouring. Some greens are very cool and I look forward to hitting into (1, 5, 12, 13, 18) but a lot are flat as a board (3, 4, 11, 14 thru 17). 15 thru 17 sit very low to the creek and if the course is wet it will be cart path only. Mosquitoes may carry you away on 16 thru 18 when in season - a can of bug spray is recommended during these times.The majority of holes are interesting...there are some good elevation changes and use of swails and hills. (My favorite on the course is 13 - a wooded uphill par 4 to a severely sloped back to front green). There are enough trees on the course to provide for a pretty good idea of where to hit if you've never played here. There are a few fairways which run in parallel and you may find people hitting out of yours (12, 13, and 14 specifically). There are some very short par 4s here as well (4, 5, 12, 14). 18 is a weird uphill par 5 finisher that requires a hybrid or long iron off the tee and you won't reach in 2.Sand never really comes into play (for me at least) at Stony Creek - most of the traps are far enough away from the green to not be in play unless your shot is errant. Water is present on the course, not plentiful...but you can easily find yourself in a creek (or the pond at 9).My son and I like playing the 9 hole par 3 together which goes around the range. It is not maintained with the same care as the 18 hole but is not neglected either. Some of the holes are very short (~80 yards) and most of the greens are pretty straightforward. It's a good place to work on the wedges and short irons and there are worse ways to spend an hour and a half with your kid.The range is nice with ample tee boxes, a self service outdoor ball machine (tokens inside), a smallish putting green and a decent chipping green with a bunker.Rates on the weekend are around $45 with a cart...maybe a bit much but there are twilight and weekday rates to bring that number down if that is too much. Have never really had an issue with pace of play. Overall this is a nice neighborhood facility and a good place to get a round in.

One of my favorite public courses. It is inexpensive, challenging enough to be fun and never uncomfortably crowded. They have a nice little executive course too, that way you can get a quick golf fix in and work on the short game.Stop by and hit a few balls on the driving range too! If you see me out there say hello!Love it!

This was one of my favorite courses but I just played it first time this season & the course is in terrible shape. Weeds everywhere & the greens & tee boxes were very bad. I'm speculating that maybe the course may be sold to a housing developer at the end of the year.

Played 18 on Tuesday at 10:00. Starter put us off as soon as we were ready. Never waited. Foursome under 4 hours. Fairways, tee boxes and greens were in great shape. We decided to move our Tuesday group from River Glen and Iron Wood to here. Definitely recommend

Conditions are not reliable, and layout is mostly mediocre, with the exception of a couple strong holes (9 and 11), and a couple absolutely terrible holes (10 and 18). Hole 18 has a very strong argument as the worst hole in Indiana. It's not that I would refuse to play here, but I would prefer to play almost anywhere else that you can think of.

Very fun course to play for middle of the road and beginners! Also exceptionally priced!
