Lakemont at Stone Mountain Golf Course

We had a great time at the course on May 30th 2015. I wish you all would bring back the 6 inch putting holes! Had a great time.

This course was average. The layout could be much better. There are a few good holes. I liked most of the par-3's. The only decent par-5 is the 18th. The rest of par-5's you really don't have an opportunity for risk/reward. I hate hitting irons and hybrids off tee boxes all day long. I felt like this course made us do so all day. I like to grip/rip it. Also, greens are pretty slow.

Lakemont for sure is worth the $15 mandatory park entrance fee (so be aware to have cash in your wallet) that Parks and Recreation is not willing to waive when you're just going to play golf. The views are incredible even though some faiways need some TLC in certain spots. Staff is friendly and rental clubs are top notch. Definitely will be back.

When booking online, I was not advised that there was an additional $15.00 to get into Stone Mountain.
Very disappointed.

Nice views of the lake and mountain on Lakemont but the conditions were terrible. There were bare and unlevel tee boxes, bare and water soaked, muddy fairways and some greens had bare spots too. I don't know if it is sun exposure or how they cut them but the back 9 greens were much faster than the front 9, dramatically different. Not worth the price at all! Also the parking permit is $15 for the day so that made the round a terrible value. Worth $20, not $60.

I had high expectations for both of these courses. Each was awful. The sand bases of the greens and tees were consistently exposed. It was a beautiful layout wasted. The clubhouse is nice and the food is actually very good, but Marriott has not exactly lent a helping hand to the upkeep of the courses. The starters are extremely friendly but did not do a great job of tee time management which resulted in backups. It's also a challenging layout requiring accurate tee shots so there are high handicappers searching for balls non-stop. Do not waste your time.

The staff in the clubhouse was Great! The bar NEEDS WORK!!! I always have to wait for someone to come out. When they do, they act like they are doing you a favor by being there!! The beverage cart person is always nice, service with a smile every time. Lakemont course seems to be in better shape than Stonemont. The views for the first 9 are GREAT! The greens were in good shape.

I know it's early in the season but overall the course itself was in terrible shape. The greens had lots of bare spots and even big patches of hard packed sand. The tee boxes were mostly barren and chewed up. The place itself is a lovely setting with great views but the conditions of the course we're poor at best

This course is terrible, especially a course managed by Marriott. Tee boxes were nothing but sand and the greens were pretty much indescribably bad. One green had 2 bare sand circles in the middle. I've never played a green with a bunker in the middle of the green (satire). That I actually had to putt through.
In a word, the course is horrible! Bright side, the scenery was good.

- Course was in fair shape.
- Greens have some issues with diseased patches, but ultimately in good shape for early in the season.
- Tee boxes need to be looked after more. ( leveling issues)
- Management needs to be more "transparent" with the $15 you need for access into Stone Mountain just to play the course.
- Need to express (for new players) that you don't round though the back nine for drinks, food, etc...

Took my Dad here from out of town. He enjoyed the views and the front 9. However the back 9 greens and overall course conditions were a little sub-par. Greens were beaten up a bit, and some fairways lacked turf, making good shots still run off into trouble because of hard pan and rocky turf.

The course was fun to play however the tee boxes and greens were not in good shape. Would like to replay it if the improve. With that said considering the conditions not sure I would replay. The service in the bar was horrible. Tried to get a drink before the round and was basically ignored. They need to work on customer service

The greens had been recently aerified and the greens made it really difficult to enjoy our round.

The course website said that they greens had been aerated 10 days ago. Upon arrival, we found out they actually were aerated 3 days ago. The area had received some rain on Thursday and we played on Saturday. The course was a completed mud pit. Multiple fairways were unplayable due to the amount of moisture and mud.

Also, multiple tee boxes had no grass on them. Even though the greens were aerated and sanded, multiple spots on the greens had no grass.

I have played Stone Mountain many times in the past, but it will be a while before I go back due to the overall terrible shape the course was in. It wasn't worth the $40 i paid to play.

The first sign of a great day is when you pull up to play golf and you have to pay a $15.00 fee to park. This was not mentioned when we where purchasing our round for 7 people($105.00 extra). The course was in horrible condition and should not of even had golfers on the course. The best thing about the outing was the hotdog I had and the club house.

Not to mention after we paid for our round, the guy at the counter said "you guys picked a great course to play on today" and yes he was being very sarcastic.

I've played this course multiple times in the past with satisfaction but unfortunately this course has been ignored and run into the ground. Absolutely awful playing conditions. The greens, fairways and tee boxes were in unplayable shape. It's unacceptable that its even open for playing. Very dissapointed. With so much incredible natural landscape around, it's ashame more needed attention isn't given to this golf course.

First off I would like to start by saying this staff may be the best I have ever encountered.They are super friendly and helpful. Mention that it is your first time playing here and you will receive a complementary yardage book. I played the lakemont course which is the less popular of the two but has better scenery. The course is challenging by way of the narrowest fairways you will ever play. The Par 3s are long, ranging from 155 - 218yards and there are 5 of them. As for the greens they were miserable. There is no such thing as putting straight. Very patchy, you better hit the ball close to the hole or you are never putting it in. Fairways need work but I will give them the benefit of the doubt as winter is just ending and we have seen much rain. Overall the experience was good but the course needs some serious maintenance considering its a Marriott course. If you can get on the course for a decent price go play, but remember you must pay to enter the park as well.

After winter it's tough to have good greens, And aeration starts for them next week or so. Was bumpy on each green.
despite that, really fun. Beautiful course.

This time the bells didn't play all day so was much better. That can be really annoying.

The course was in bad shape and was cart path only for all 18 holes. Also the park charged 15.00 dollars to get into the course, this amount use to be refunded... However, it is not anymore, so expect to pay 15.00 dollars more for your rate. They do give you a bucket of range balls, in order to try and make up for the additional park fee, but I was the first tee time of the morning and had no time to get practice in. Let's no mention how far the range is from the course I played...

you have to pay $15. to get in park and bad green.
