Rating 71.5

Stone Mountain Golf Club boasts 36 holes of championship golf that are a part of Stone Mountain Park, which is one of the Southeast's most popular attractions. The Lakemont Course winds around the beautiful Stone Mountain Lake through forests of Georgia pines and hardwoods. John LaFoy, a native of the state, designed the golf course. He incorporated his signature mounding and dramatic bunkering, which is enhanced even further by the wildly undulating terrain. The lake is more prominent on the front nine where water comes into play on six holes. The back nine still features water on four holes, but there are more rocky outcroppings, providing different but equally stunning scenery. Stunning mountain views can be enjoyed from every hole and golfers will also be able to glimpse the famous Confederate memorial carving featuring Robert E. Lee, Jefferson Davis, and Stonewall Jackson.

Terrible greens and no warning

75% of Stonemonts greens are mud and algae while you pay +$90. The course gave no disclosures nor discounts. Waste of money and time (5 hour rounds guaranteed here)

Stone Mountain Park Courses

Played Lakemont course front nine and Stonemont back nine with a member. Fairways of both tracks are well maintained. Because most Lakemont greens have been replaced over the last several years they’re very nice. But, they roll inconsistent and number 7 suffers from a drainage problem. The recent rains have damaged all the Stonemont bent grass greens. Stonemont course is not worth the money they charge to play it. Stay away from Stonemont. That is unless you’re just looking to enjoy the day practicing.

Good course, horrible pace

Course was in good shape, greens were hairy. Played at 10 am on a Saturday. Took 3.5 hours to play 11 holes and called it quits. There needs to be a marshal of some sorts to not let people search for balls all day

Scenic Lakemont

Lakemont was in great shape. The condition of the greens were good. Only a couple of greens were a little spotty . It’s layout is one of my favorites. Even though this course is not as long as Stonemont , it is still quite a challenge especially from the tips.

Beautiful course, conditions just ok

For the money, I would have expected better conditions. The place is gorgeous, but the greens had some bare spots, and every sand trap was hard as a rock and had canyons where water had run through it. For the money , the value just wasn’t there. Plus, you have to pay $20 just to get into Stone Mountain park just to get to the course.

Great staff

Incredible design with great views of Stone Mountain. Friendly and helpful staff. Pace of play can be slow. Rarely see a Marshall on the course. Worth the wait though.

Great design bad condition

Hit 11 greens in 14 holes and only made 1 put. Picked up after first putt each hole due to the green condition. Only played 14 holes because the group in front of me would not allow a single to play through. Got fed up and left. Beautiful surroundings interesting layout bad condition.

Could Use Some Work

Love the elevational changes of the course but the greens are super slow and some of the holes are just plain weird. This course is not nearly worth the price they charge.

God is Present Here!

God thank you for blessing me with my 1st 18-hole round of golf at Stone Mountain Lakemont! I love the Game of Golf and all the golf pros and staff and golfers welcomed me and my girlfriend and I enjoyed a lovely round of golf!
