Stonemont, the original 18 hole layout, was designed and built in 1969 by the Father of Modern Golf Architecture, Robert Trent Jones Sr. With his passing in June of 2000, Stonemont will remain the only Jones Sr. designed course, open to the public, in the State of Georgia. His masterpiece was built in a setting “so magical that it truly seemed as though God, Himself, had created (it) with a golf course in mind,” as Jones noted in 1999, in a letter to Stone Mountain Golf Club commemorating the restoration of his layout. Stonemont is laid out over gently rolling and cantered fairways of premier Bermuda grass and greens of immaculate bent grass. The par 70 layout stretches 6845 yards making it not only long, but brutish at times with its narrow fairways, strategically placed bunkers and numerous stands of Georgia pines.
Additionally, on the front side there are several nearly-hidden creeks and drainways challenging even the straightest of drivers. Even more diabolical is the way Jones used the natural slope and contour of the land to increase the difficulty of shots not played to the correct areas. These subtle contours often play mind games with the golfer whether he stands on the tee or in the fairway, making the mental approach to playing Stonemont of utmost importance. The backside is a very scenic and well-paced 9 holes that test every facet of one’s game. Par is an excellent adversary on Stonemont as every hole presents a unique and calculated challenge sure to leave one thirsting for revenge.
