South Mountain Golf Course Tee Times

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.

South Mountain is a golf course in the south side of Draper, tucked away in the mountains. It's got incredible views here from start to finish. Parking is fine here as the lot accommodates enough cars easily. The clubhouse is smaller and they have some food and drinks inside. Greens fees aren't too bad, but it's really worth it for the views. The fairways were in good condition and the greens weren't too bad, but some of the rough was burnt. The staff were nice here but there wasn't any beverage cart riding around. Overall a cool place to golf and would go again.

After seeing the condition of this course today, I can’t believe they’re charging full price to even golf here. They do have a sign stating drainage issues but apart from what are truly drainage issues, this course is in AWFUL condition. I have golfed here year after year and the fact it has gotten this bad is mind blowing. It’s not like this is a new issue, there have been signs something was going wrong here the past few years. There are basically ponds where there would be grass and they smell horrible, it’s like walking in a mini swamp in area, the dry spots are so dry they’re almost down to bare dirt or crispiest of the crisp, you’re constantly having to pick up and move your ball to hit, tee boxes with no grass at all, tee box markers are on wrong tee boxes and if they’re on the right tee box they aren’t even set up in the right direction, it’s like they drive by and toss them out of a cart and call it good. The yellow jackets are out of control, the amount of trash ALL OVER from hole 1 to hole 18, that should have nothing to do with drainage. The trash bin by the club house looked like a frat party just ended, trash cans at the tee boxes were full and it was the first tee times of the day. It is such a shame to see what was and could still be such a beautiful course, with one of the best views of the valley/mountains being so poorly managed and cared for. At least take pride in what is left and what can be manicured to make up for everything else.
