I’m only giving this place two stars because of the beautiful views — that’s really the highlight here. Unfortunately, the course itself is in poor condition and clearly not well maintained. The fairways and greens need serious attention, and overall it feels like the grounds management just isn’t keeping up with the potential this course has.
It’s disappointing because the layout and scenery are fantastic, and with proper care this could easily be one of the top courses around. I did enjoy my time golfing thanks to the company and the setting, but I won’t be back until there are noticeable improvements to course maintenance and overall upkeep.

This course has so much potential. It used to be great: good price, well maintained, and usually not too crowded. Then a few years ago it went to crap. We decided to try it again today and the course is in horrible shape. Please Salt Lake County, fix this course!!!

I wish I had read recent reviews before I played South Mountain today.
I play approximately 50 rounds of golf a year and it is the worst conditioned golf course I have played in maybe five years.
A third of the course is in fine shape. A third of the course is dead and the other third is soggy/standing water.
It is a well designed golf course that is fun and challenging when playable, but it Is embarrassing how bad playing conditions have deteriorated.
I worked on a groundscrew for 10 years and whoever is cutting cups needs some training.
Virtually every hole had sand scattered around the cup, which is simply a result of a lazy cup cutter. Most of the cups were cut too deep and the old cups were either sunken or raised above the putting surface.
It will be a very long time before I pay to play this course again.
Very disappointing.
