Beautiful Day on The Lake

The setting was absolutely beautiful • sunny and 67
- The course is in great shape the Front Nine on Lakemont is one of the prettiest stretch of holes in the area.

Shot a 44 but would have gone lower if I was focused and wasn't taking so many pictures

Lakemont 1/6/23

Course is in pretty good shape for mid-winter season. Bill in the pro shop is a super good guy. Outside guys were helpful without hovering. I had to try 4 carts though before I got one with a functional USB. Good value at $60. Amazing views of the mountain.

Slow Play

Slow Play and no marshall made for a tough day. Really need to have someone to tell others to let people play through. Nowhere should slow play be condoned.

Unacceptable Rates

I read through some of the other reviews and they are clearly fake accounts. I’ve played this course 8 times but Saturday was the first time in a couple years. I’ve enjoyed it in the past and had no issue with paying the near $100 this weekend because of that. Unfortunately the greens could not be worse. They are completely brutal along with the bunkers and made that price a complete rip off. Save your money for now and hopefully it’s just a seasonal thing. Don’t allow them to take advantage of you like they did me with those awful conditions based on the price they ask for.

6-7 hour pace of play - on a Thursday….

Waited on every hole and groups were double stacked on tee boxes starting on tee #2. Called Marshal a few holes in and no action taken. After 4+ hours and triple stacked on 12th tee we called it and headed in. The group causing the back up(4 elderly women playing every shot when they hit it about 20 feet per shot) was 2 holes ahead and driving in there was not a single group on 15,16,17 or 18.

Marshal should be regulating pace of play.

Way over priced, greens are a disaster

I can’t believe they charge $104 when majority of the greens are severely damaged and multiple tee boxes need work.

It’s crazy that Stonemount is in phenomenal shape but Lakemount is in need of a makeover.

Nice RTJ layout

Course layout was challenging and fun. Greens were good speed but several need repair. For the second weekend in a row I was frustrated by the beverage cart service who only showed up at the very beginning of the back nine and were never seen again (last week it was that they showed up finally on 17). For someone in the industry it’s lost revenue. In the end, it’s a good value in a challenging market. I will definitely return.

OVERPRICED

This course is NOT worth even close to what they're charging!!
There are bare patches all over the place; the tee boxes & greens are pretty rough. Also be aware that you have to pay an extra $20 just to get in the park, making your $100 tee time actually $120. If you're going to pay this much go to Bears Best, Lanier or play twice somewhere else. This used to be nice for say $60 but nowhere near $100.

Not Worth the Money

I visited Stone Mountain a few years back and thought it would be great to play golf there. After we booked a lake house for the week at Lake Lenier I decided this would be the perfect opportunity to play there. The round cost almost $100/person, which we were all ok with until we got there. First we had to pay $20 just to enter the park. The clubhouse and the pro shop staff and cart attendants were very nice and welcoming. We were informed by the starter that there was no beverage cart service. There were no water coolers on the course either and Lakemont’s layout does not take you by the clubhouse after 9. Again, no water coolers on the course. After our round we went to the clubhouse bar to get a drink, I personally didn’t have an issue, but others in the group did. They ordered drinks with Buffalo Trace, but the bartender used a different liquor and said “that’s how I make it”. When this was brought to her attention she said “are y’all going to make me pour all these drinks out?”. I guess I am spoiled, I live in the Myrtle Beach area, when I spend $90-100 for a round of golf I expect more. Simple things like a beverage cart, water coolers, GPS on the cart, and good service at the bar. I would never recommend this course to anyone.
