Stonemont at Stone Mountain Golf Course

I know that the greens at Stone Mountain have just went under aeration and should not be in great shape. But, the aeration alert still should be present on Golfnow. It was so bad that a one foot putt was not a sure thing. The greens are about two or three weeks away from putting without your ball bouncing from its intended line.

We were able to take advantage of a great GolfNow special to play this course, and we still paid too much. The fairways and tees have little if any grass and the greens are slow, bumpy, and inconsistent. The layout of the course if very interesting and would be fun to play if the conditions were better.

Great clubhouse. Stonemont has the same holes. NO VARIETY!

We went on a cold day after a week of rain. it was a little wet. we had the whole course to ourselves. The mountain will pull the ball. against a break.

Thats all you will do at this course. We quit going here a couple years ago, and thought I would try it again. Ended up waiting on every tee box and every fairway. No ambasssador ever came around. Not worth it to us, so we will not be going back.

It's an average course. Being that this was my first time playing in Atlanta, I had higher hopes that the course condition was going to be top notch. Green were really slow and inconsistent. Looking at them from first glance, you would have thought that they would run fast but nope. Fairway and tee box were fine. Clubhouse served good food. Didn't like the idea of paying additional $10 to enter the park. Good thing our family had planned additional activities at the park, otherwise just a waste of money. Don't know how the golf course maintains business like that. I don't know if i'll play there again in the future.

Enjoyed playing the course.I would go back.The staff was very friendly.

1. Five men group allowed to play, and of course, in front of me.
2. Young twosome also in front, slowed play, no idea of "Golf Etiquete"
3. The overall condiction of the fairway was not the best, "3 out of 10".
4. So disapponted (play only 12 holes in over 3 1?2 hours) that I left before it got too dark.
SERIOUSLY THINKING ABOUT PLAYING THERE EVER AGAIN OR EVEN USE GOLF NOW IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

The course challenges you to be able to make all the shots. Long irons, short par 4s, etc. very enjoyable track.

Stonemont is in acceptable, but not quite good condition for February. The fairway was fairly clean and in most locations only wet conditions prevented playing the ball down. The rough had not been cleared on leaf litter. I would rate the greens as near poor for slow speed, bare spots and high levels of inconsistency. The layout makes this a good track for a change of pace.
The practice facilities remain less than average. The practice green near the #1 tee is almost unusable and bears no resemblance to the course greens. The practice tee is limited to mats at this time of year. I do not object to the mats, but there is insufficient space to walk a safe and respectful distance behind those using the tee. I do object to the restricted flight balls.
The staff did not manage the pace of play or starting schedule. We were told that there could be a short frost delay and then were ask to start early. When we arrived at the first tee 10 minutes before our scheduled time, there was no starter, the fairway was occupied, and there was group who had missed their scheduled time expecting to started in front of us.

Challenging but fair test of your golf game. Lots of par 4s that test your ability to hit good "second shots". Fairways are treelined but not "too tight". Greens were in excellent shape (particularly for January).

The pace of play was very good. Not a fan of hole #2 and a lot of narrow fairways. I could see this being a great golf course during the early summer months. Enjoyable day !!!!!!!!

I enjoyed my round at the Stone Mountain Stonemont Course. The greens were in pretty good shape; tricky sometimes. The fairways are without color as is expected this time of year, but aside from that, it was a great play. Not too many folks out, so I actually had a pretty good pace going. I would play it again anytimg.

Shot placement off the T is needed here at Stonemount.
If you can't work the ball off the T box you will need to just get to the dog leg and shoot again a shot that will position your ball for the approach. Very easy for a stray drive to cost you a stroke penalty being that the fairways are lined with Lateral water hazards(red stakes). Very narrow fairways and the greens are small as well.
This course is a great test of Golf. Play smart and your score will be fine. If you want to play a Trent Jones Sr course play this one and don't be a chicken and make the reservation. Very neat course layout with tall trees and some great views.

Nice view with challengeable course. Green condition was not a excellent one.

Signage to course could be better, course is interesting, first time play made it play more difficult than it might be as landing areas are not readily visible.

Challenging course, lots of trees and water on the front 9. Back nine mostly trees and a bit narrower than the front. Some interesting holes, which I would play differently the second time. Not many flat lies, lots of rolling hills. Fun day and would definitely play again. On a busy day I would expect play to be slow as there are lots of opportunities to lose balls in the trees and water.

Stonemont (not Lakemont) is one of the best "driving" golf courses you'll find in metro Atlanta, especially from the back tees. You have to be in complete control of your tee ball to score on this course. The course has been in existence since late 60s or early 70s so the trees left by the designer are big and mature. This means tree lined fairways - yup - tree lined fairways, and to me this is why you want to play here; Straight long par4 holes that require you to hit controllable drives that find the fairway!!! A great test of golf.

Now, if you don't find the fairway, for the most part, your ball will have to be played around trees in order to find the green, or you'll have to take your medicine and punch out. But if you find all 14 fairways, your job is not over - the greens are fast and pretty undulating. You have to be on your toes to get down in two if you're GIR, and good luck with birdies here, because scoring requires fantastic iron shots!

Overall, this course is one of my favorites!!!

Played Stonement and the course was in excellent shape. Good pace of play. Friendly staff and excellent pro shop. Had not played the course in about 5 years. My mistake. We will be back soon.

I really enjoy playing Stonemont. You always have to know where stone mountain is. It will effect the break on your putt.
