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!

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.

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.
