The most over priced course in Atlanta

This course could not be in any worse condition. Greens are absolutely abysmal. Fairways are spotty, patchy and lead to a lot of run-off/ runaway balls.

Next the layout. Played Lakemont. The silliest collection of holes. It’s wither tee off with a 7 iron with PW to a green on par fours followed by 200-225 par 3s. There are a few decent holes but most include extreme elevation changes from blind tee shots.

I paid the full price of 100$ for a morning tee time. Arriving at the gate of the park it required an additional 20$ entrance fee since I do not own the annual pass. All in close to 125$.

DO NOT WASTE YOU MONEY HERE. There are better course for half as much very close by in the area. Included at pic of the range which is basically painted concrete. The course is pretty much on the same level of condition.

Terrible, inconsistent greens. They had mold, burnt spots, just bad. Beautiful course, although; it looks like they let the geese cut the grass. Not worth 50$

Not for the Faint of Heart

Played front 9 of both the Lakemont and the Stonemont course.
Overall the course is in very good shape, would not expect less from a course in this price-range. The fairways grass was still dormit and yellow ( dry/dead) , making for a hard surface . I was suprised by that , which impact your overall iron shots and close-in chips. The sandtraps were the best I have experienced in any course over the last 3 or 4 years.
These two courses are not for hackers or beginners. Come ready to play and focused. Fast elevated multi-slopping greens, and fairways that are sloped to magnify all slices. ( There courses I think, would favor a lefty and their slice)
How I managed to only have one 3-putt is a question for the "Golf-Gods" ( two lucky 15ft and 22ft putts)
I am a 15 HCP and I didn't brake 100. I know the next time I will , because I will know how to tackle some of those holes that requires knowing the lay-of-the-land.
FYI: There was a Five-some group on the course. As sloooow as these 5-hackers were, we were able to navigate around them then loop back & play their hole and then go back to our normal hole playing.
Fun time.

Poor Value

Paid $158 for a round at Lakemont and the weather was amazing but the course was in poor shape. That was a $60 value at best.

Expensive for the course conditions

I don't really expect sand traps on the tee's and greens. Great day a bit early season, but should not have been paying this rate for this course.

First timer rating

I played right after the greens were aerated and it was still a great time. When the grass is prime go the fairways and greens, this place is a great place to play.

Good course, at times

Have played this course a few times. It is a fun course that on the right day will be in great shape. On the wrong day you will get course conditions that aren’t worth the money to play. The conditions are inconsistent overall.The pace of play is also hit or miss, but you can typically expect 4.5+ hours if it’s busy. The scenery is beautiful.

Shameful

The course itself is in a pretty location and the front 9 are very scenic. But the course was in terrible condition. Does not drain well at all. Half of the fairways are pretty much hitting out of mud. Tee boxes were mostly dirt. Greens were bumpy and had sections that are wetter and slower than other areas on the same green. And it’s clear that no one repairs divots or pitch marks. Layout is unique and challenging. But for being ~$80/person it is a terrible value.

Not Worth the Money

Staff was nice.. Course itself was in pretty bad condition. Bad fairways, greens were okay at best. The views of the mountain and the lake were gorgeous but that was the only perk. I wont be back.

It’s a shame this course is in the condition it is in.

Most of the tee boxes had more dirt than grass, the greens need to be shut down and regrown. They had a frost delay so the pace of place was pretty slow. They had one cart girl split between Stonemont and Lakemont. We had to go to the starter shack and ask them to call her over to hole 10. Luckily we had a hot deal and the round was right at $50 after taxes and fees. Unfortunately I won’t be going back to this or the Stonemont course for a long time if ever!
