Streamsong Resort

I rarely take the time to write reviews, but I just wanted to shout out Streamsong for the fantastic weekend I had (8/1-8/3). The grounds and hotel were great. The shuttles were always circling so you had super quick access to all three locations. Food was fantastic (at least better than I had expected based on seeing some other reviews). I found prices to be at least reasonable. The golf was exactly as advertised. I think what sets Streamsong apart from other places I have visited is the staff. Literally every single person we encountered seemed happy to engage with us. From the hotel front desk, the pro shops, down to the shuttle drivers and bag drop guys. Everyone was ready to help and attempted to provide the best service possible and actually seemed legitimately interested in our experience. You do not get that everywhere. It would be difficult to have a truly bad time at this property. If you do, you may need to take a quick glance in the mirror.

Tremendous experience at Streamsong. The resort is built for golf. The courses all have unique characteristics that separate themselves while all capturing a wasteland feel that is unique. The Chain is a fun side course that can fill time late in afternoons. At the three premium courses, the marshals prioritize pace of play, which can be a little unsettling sometimes when they ask you to speed up even though it seems no other groups are around you. The restaurants have a good mix of variety. Would recommend the tuna nachos at Bone Valley Tavern. Would recommend 10/10 and will return.

The rooms were very nice (8.5/10), and the food very good (8/10), but be ready to pay more than is reasonable for basically everything. Value is certainly not the name of the game here. One of the caddies was telling us how much money the resort makes, almost bragging about it, and it became clear they prioritize profit over value for their customers. Maybe because it’s a destination and they’re truly not trying to get repeat customers? The service was OK, but varied widely by employee. For some reason, our group could not be served for over 30 minutes in a half empty restaurant during dinner time. Lack of staff was given as the reason, but they certainly had enough staff to serve us if they had cared to. The courses are nice (7/10), and we played them all, but not nearly nice enough to charge what they do for a greens fee and then require you to take a caddy on top of that. Have played many courses that are nicer courses at half the price, in more accessible locations. For quality of the actual courses (layout, condition, fun holes, etc.), I would rate Blue 8/10, Red 7/10, black 6.5/10, and the Chain 8/10 (mostly for being such a unique concept and there are some cool holes). From a value standpoint, all of them are well below 5/10. I’m glad I gave it a try, but won’t be back and would not recommend Streamsong unless you just want to say you tried it (while paying double what is reasonable for what you get).
