I cannot begin to tell you how many events I attended or hosted at Starmount Forest Country Club ( affectionately known as Starmount) during my 27 year tenure at the Community Theatre of Greensboro. So many bar and bat-mitzvahs, sweet 16s, weddings, anniversaries, rotary club meetings, fundraisers for the community theater and on and on and on. I was shocked but flattered when I walked into Starmount last Sunday to attend a former Wizard of Oz cast member's baby shower, that the manager recognized me and started telling me about all his memories of the events I was part of in years gone by. So nice! I don't know that much about the club in that I am not a golfer and I was never a member so my visits were limited to attending or hosting an event. I will tell you that they have a fantastic swimming pool and pool area, and I know many families that have enjoyed that pool over the years. They also have a very popular golf course and tennis courts that their members love. I was invited many times over the years to join a member for golf, and as much as I wanted to say "yes" to the CTG supporter, I instinctively knew I would make a complete fool of myself and kindly declined! I even suck at miniature golf!!! I remember when Doris Tanger, may she rest in peace, was still alive and she invited me to dinner at Starmount because she wanted to meet her son, Steven. Little did I know at that dinner that a decade later Steven would make a lead gift to the Tanger Center that so many of us enjoy today. I was never a country club kind of guy but I can appreciate what it offers if you are wanting an outlet for your family or yourself during your off hours. I seem to remember that their meals are quite good, they used to have a buffet as well ( maybe they still do) and I always appreciated the warmth and professionalism whenever I attended something, including last Sunday. As I stood there and watched Costen celebrate the soon-to-be coming of his first baby, I remembered when he was 5 years old as a lollipop kid in The Wizard of Oz and I cannot help but wonder where did the years go? But it was a comforting feeling to know that no matter how much time goes by, The Wizard of Oz still captivates our community, and I will return again and again to Starmount Forest Country Club. This facility is a landmark in Greensboro and has served a segment of our community for decades. Conveniently accessed off Holden Road, there's plenty of parking and plenty to do and plenty to eat. I wonder if the new generations will want to be part of a country club like my generation or those before me? It holds a certain appeal to some, but for me, I'd rather get on a plane or in my car and get out of town. But, if you can afford it, there's nothing like heading to the Starmount Forest Country Club for golf, swimming, tennis and a delicious meal or a special event!

Words cannot express our appreciation for all the hard work that went into making our Happily After Ever Party such a beautiful and memorable occasion. There wasn’t anything that needed to be changed or altered. We walked in and the work had been done for us. Everyone was professional, kind, and accommodating. Thank you so much for helping us make memories that will last a lifetime.

Excellent wedding reception location for my daughter. The grounds and building are beautiful, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the food was fantastic. They were able to accommodate the multiple allergy/dietary needs of our guests, and the food was very fresh and well prepared. Highly recommend Starmount!

We had looked for a club for over a year and from the moment we toured we could tell that Starmount Forest was focused on providing the family environment we had been looking for. Between the resort style pool, expanding child care options, and social events there are countless options for family time. Bistro 59 is fantastic for a quick casual lunch and for a fantastic dinner. The golf course is a beautiful design and epitomizes a second shot golf course. Even at about 6800 yards the pure championship Bermuda greens protect the course and demand execution. We could not be more pleased to be a part of this club.
