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.

Stone mtn present

Been a long time since I last played here(well over 5 yrs). Always a challenging layout but very scenic course on Lakemont and staff was friendly. But that’s where the positives end. $20 parking fee should not exist and back then it used to be comped. Also guy at gate would not take our $20 bill because it had a tear in it. Greens and fairways not really taken care of. Greens were actually a mess. No cart person on a full hot Saturday.

Seen much better

The entire course seems like it has taken a beating. Been much better than this. For the price seems like you could do much better.

Good course but could be better

Decent course. Staff was excellent, friendly and very helpful. They do have a driving range and chipping green but you have to get your balls at the clubhouse. The greens were un-manicured. For the price I feel like improvements could be made to make them better.

Much Potential. Looks like they are trying.

Lakemont has the views and the layout to be a great course. It once was.

Starting from the tees, they are wildly inconsistant, as is much of the course. Some are perfectly passable or good, but some are just awful. There is a mix of everything in between.

Greens are the same as the tees. Though I can't think of more than a few that I would say are perfectly passable. The majority are rough, with lots of unusable space and some where the horrible spots are smack in the middle.

Fairways/rough are nice and the bunkers for the most part have sand. There seem to be a few that are pretty barren. I personally did not feel like I got a bad break due to conditions between the tee and green.

I won't comment on staff unless someone was exceptionally rude or helpful. I have been here three times in three weeks and have seen mostly different faces.

Pace of play is fine. There can be some jams but even then it moves well. Played a Friday 3:45 round in 4 hours, which for most Atlanta area public courses is not awful. Have been a few times the past month and it has been pretty much the same each time.

I think we have been around 47 or something for the round. Apparently Stonemont is 37ish? Stonemont under 40 is a great play as of this past week. I would not play Lakemont again in this current state for over $40 on a weekday afternoon.

Good layout, views, value, some greens a little rough

As always a pretty and peaceful course. And fair value for what you get and versus other public courses around ATL.

Not overly crowded.

Pro shop guys were friendly.

Some of the greens were a little rough - in terms of jenky patches of grass and a few with slick parches. Same review for a few of the tee boxes. Fairways were good.

Greens are terrible

I have played both Stone Mountain courses for years and have seen them go from great to bad and back to good conditions. Currently the greens are in terrible condition. The fairways are ok but not as good as in the past.

The only reason I will play them now are the hot deals.

Terrible condition

Saturday 10:30 tee time. Took ~ 5 hours to complete round with group of 4. Greens were in terrible shape. Value of a 20-30 dollar course at best, but rates listed as high as 120 for weekend.

Don’t waste your money

Course is trash. Absolute shambles. Greens unputtable. 6 hour round. Charging $125 for this dirt track is unethical. Don’t waste your money
