Breathing New Life into a Timeless Course
Sustainable Vision
Francis and Jennifer O'Donnell purchased Stone Dock in 2021 at the peak of the pandemic with a mission to care for the landscape and amenities in a healthier, more sustainable way than traditional golf courses. Since then, they have changed all turf practices, using organic fertilizers and refraining from the use of pesticides. Restorative and regenerative practices guide every decision.
In the golf world, sustainability is seen as a luxury, with only large-budget courses being able to afford green initiatives. At Stone Dock, we hope to lead the way towards sustainability for smaller public courses. We believe in the roots of golf as a sport in harmony with nature.
Restorative & Regenerative Practices Guide Every Decision
- We are committed to environmental stewardship for future generations.
- We have planted over 1,000 new trees and shrubs on the course to support biodiversity, stabilize and enrich soils, and prevent erosion in our floodplain.
- We proudly utilize organic methods and refrain from using pesticides, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for all.
- By embracing sustainable practices, we protect our watershed, preserve natural habitats, and contribute to a healthier planet.
