Stonemont at Stone Mountain Golf Course
About
Stone Mountain Golf Club sits at the base of one of the Southeast's most popular attractions, Stone Mountain. The club offers two 18-hole courses, Lakemont and Stonemont. The Stonemont Course is the club's original layout, designed by Robert Trent Jones. The gentle hills surrounding the mountain provide the golf course with rolling fairways and greens. The contours are subtle, but they can be deceiving. The classic but tricky layout requires careful strategy and course management in addition to accuracy. The course is routed around the mountain and its accompanying lake, weaving through dense forests of Georgia pine. The layout features narrow fairways, but one of the most challenging features are the numerous bunkers strategically placed throughout. Since opening in 1969, Stone Mountain's Stonemont Course has hosted numerous events, both local and national.

Golf at Stone Mountain Stonemont Course
This course is excellent for the golfer looking for a bit of a challenge. Scoring a par on one of the holes on this course is a real par. There are no 100 or 120 yard par 3’s if you catch my drift. The par 5’s are true par 5’s, and you need two perfect long shots to reach any of them. Lots of par4’s are 400 yard plus, so it is not like most golf courses... where you never use a mid or long iron. If there is a negative at all: I find it sad that one has to pay the park entrance fee, when all one does is playing golf. People playing golf should get the entry fee waved.
Very disappointed
Waited to play 3 days after rain and the course was mud. True it is winter conditions but there is poor drainage since it is built on rock. Course layout was not exciting and to add insult to injury you need to pay a $15 dollar entrance fee to Stone Mountain Park. Much better courses around for better value.
First time played
Enjoyed course even though conditions were wet due to heavy rains the night before. I didn’t appreciate getting charged $15 just to get through the gate to get to the course.
Winter play
Happened to catch a break in the winter weather and found a round for one player for $25 on a course that usually charges much more. The course co sit-up. Was in unusually good shape considering we just had sub-freezing temps the entire week before. The greens were nice and the staff was fantastic as usual.
Will definitely be back, maybe see how Lakemont is doing. Both courses should not be missed. The surrounding views of Stone Mountain and the lakes are beautiful.
Arctic Golf
Wind chill didn’t dissuade us from experiencing Stone Mountain Golf
$15 park "parking" fee
A nice layout with nice greens, but pace of play is sometimes can be very awful and the $15 park fee just to get inside the park gates on top of your greens fee, make this playing here not really a great value
Stonewall Jackson
This review has nothing to do with him other than it's one of the street names you drive in on.
The course is beautiful and very well kept. Don't play hybrids off the pine straw and be aware that Bermuda grass is VERY sticky and you should do just fine. A few of the greens had issues but it appears they are working on it. They are still entirely playable. Enjoy the views.
Game tester
I love this course, it's a nice barometer for your game. The whole course is right in front of you, you just have to hit your targets. There is no room for error on either side of the fairway, wayward shots are thoroughly punished and even when you find your ball doesn't men ypu can play it. Only two par 5s on the course, both with challenging tee shots, make scoring quite tough. Few of the greens are tricky, and down right brutal when they are fast. Maintenance has been a struggle in the past but they have cleared a bunch of trees and it seems to be helping. When the course is in good shape, shes a real beaut.
Stone Mountain (Stonemont)
Now, this review is not meant to turn business away from the 2 Courses at Stone Mountain but as much as I play golf I expect to receive a proper heads up when I check in on the Course Conditions, Pace of Play, and Facilities. Checking in was easy and the staff at the Pro Shop were very helpful. Being that this was my first time playing the course, I was given directions to the course and the Practice Facility. I purchased a small bucket of balls to warm up. We left the Pro shop and hopped on the Golf cart and headed to the range. The 1st Tee box was close to the Range which made things very convenient.
As we approached the 1st Tee Box, on first glance, the course looked to be in great shape and the course was until we reached the Greens on the 1st Hole. We noticed as we arrived at each Green on the Stonemont course it looked as if either fungus or something left big patches on the Green. It looks as if someone stripped parts of the Green and left bare spots. I took a couple of pics to add to the review. It would've been nice if someone from the Pro Shop gave us a heads up about the course conditions on the Greens.
We also noticed as we played on some holes, the grass was very soggy as if the sprinkler system was left on, to slow the ball down. I noticed this as you walked up to the green and couldn't really figure this out because on some holes there was no water nearby. We really didn't notice it on the first 3 holes but when we arrived at the 4th hole as we approached the Green our shoes were wet (the grass was really soft and mushy) and noticed some mud on our shoes as we walked onto the Greens.
We noticed this trend on the next 3 holes as well. Along with the additional Fungus or whatever you want to call the large bare spots on the Greens. And yes it did affect our play as I hit one shot that bounced on the large empty patch on the green and dug in the ground pretty deep. The way the ball played you would've thought it had rained the night before and made the Greens really soft.
Other than the wet soggy grass approaching the Greens, and the patches on the Greens, the course was in pretty good shape.
I have to admit that the Fairways looked really nice, as the balled traveled pretty smooth on well-hit shots that land in the Fairways. The pace of play was Excellent as there was no one in front of us and the group behind us, was 2 holes away. We did notice that someone left Beer cans and a little debris on the 10th and 11th holes on the Back 9.
Will I play Stone Mountain again, probably, but if there are additional options I'll gladly look to book elsewhere first. Again, this review is not intended to speak badly on the Stonemont course, it's just what I experienced playing a round yesterday on 10/1/17.
Equilizer3
The tee boxes, fairways, and greens were in great conditions. The greens were in excellent condition and very true.
Great Value
Beautiful piece of property with nice layout with the exception of #9 which is a goofy downhill 90 degree dogleg left. You cannot see ball land from tee which is very out of character from the rest of the course. For $30 with cart at twilight it was well worth the effort to play!
Blindsided by state park entrance fee
This course is located inside a national park which has a fee to enter. On top of that the green fees are much too expensive for the quality of golf the course offers. Definitely would not recommend this course to anyone.
Enjoyable round
I enjoy Stonemont overall. Part of it is military golf - left, right, left as some of the holes run parallel to each other on the front nine while the back nine is more diverse and scenic. The greens are generally small, but good although a few have bad sections that really need to be replaced. Tee boxes are OK and fairways are good. There is great variation in elevation and righ-to-left and left-to-right holes. Multiple tee boxes give you options to match your skill level.
Memorial Day Golf
We played early Monday morning before it got too busy. I was very impressed with the overall condition of the course. The fairways had just been cut and there was a lot of mulch, only a few greens had damage...other than that it was great. Thanks!
Beware of the $15 park entry fee
So ridiculous you have to pay $15 just to enter the park to get to the course. They should have some arrangement for people just golfing
Wonderful golf course
The weather was perfect !! paces of rounding was so good. I want to play several times this year. Thank you.
