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.

Very Very Sad

I remember when this was originally managed by the Stone Mountain Memorial Association and it was very nice. Now it is farmed out to contractors with the Southern Golf Company under contract.

Stonemont is in decent shape. Lakemont is NOT. They should not charge $50 much less $75 for this.

Sand directly on the greens where it is dead. The erosion is IMMENSE everywhere. I really cannot believe they are operating this in this manner.

Ripoff

The condition of this course is not good. They want $138 for a tee time on the weekends? It's a ripoff.

Not Worth the Money

At $120 or more per round on the weekends this course is now extremely overpriced. The company that took over management of the course last year is gouging their customers.

READ BEFORE BOOKING

The price they’re charging for this course is mind blowing! They’ve completely left this course to die. No part of this course is in even average condition. The carts are 5 years past their pull date and that’s coming from the starters mouth. We had to wait 35 minutes past our tee time for them to get a cart that had enough battery for us to take out. And they’re charging over $110 plus a $20 park entry fee!? It’s an absolute scam and should be illegal doing what they’re doing. I’ve played this course a lot over the past 10 years and it’s by far the worst it’s been. Somehow the price is the most it’s been too… make it make sense

Not what it use to be

Appeared that maintenance and clean up was needed. Used to be a gorgeous course and would recommend in a heartbeat. Will play again after spring kicks in. Now it is no more than an expensive public course with average appeal.

No longer up to par!

The course is in terrible shape. Not seasonally bad but endimcally. Such a good layout and facility, staff is very nice! But when you go out to play what should be a really nice course and find pocked greens, trashed tee boxes, and washed away fairways the rest of it goes no longer matters. They are having massive issues out there and not keeping up the course. The reason I know this is that we saw a rotting possum carcass in the first fairway. Not like recently dead. Like weeks old. No way that would be missed by groundskeepers. Yikes. I'm heading to Southland, where it's the opposite. Terrible facility and the staff is barely existant let alone nice. But man those greens are in GREAT shape. It's a topsy turvy world.

Played on a Saturday, took 6 hours to complete 18 holes. The greens near the lake were horrid and not worth putting on. For the price, it is so frustrating to play on such poor conditions and the time of play

Awful course

This course is a complete waste of money. It’s hands down the worst-maintained course I’ve played in the Atlanta area. The greens were not only aerated but had literal sand traps on them. The tee boxes were so poorly maintained, you’d be hard-pressed to find any grass at all. It’s outrageous that they charge $80 for such a disgrace of a course. I would never recommend this place to anyone, ever.

Missed opportunity

This course could be incredible but the condition of the course is not good. The layout is fun and views are gorgeous. Staff is friendly, but there’s clearly a lack of resources invested in the maintenance of the course. Price is pretty high considering the state of the course. Could be a gem if they’d put in the money needed to make it playable.
