About
Carved from acres of rolling countryside, The View Golf Club (formerly known as Valley View Golf Club) blends seamlessly into its surroundings. The scenic setting has led to the club being known simply as "The View" amongst locals. It has been a standby for the area's golfers for more than 55 years. The hilly terrain provides some interesting slopes throughout the golf course. The watered, fairways are generously sized, but they are lined with mature trees so they still demand a fair amount of accuracy. The medium-sized greens are undulating and vary in speed from medium to fast. The golf course has an ideal combination of challenges balanced with more forgiving features that appeals to a variety of different skill levels. Both beginners and more experienced players looking for a casual round will enjoy The View Golf Club.

This course had good greens
I liked playing this course
Nice course
Group in front was wexcessively slow, otherwise great morning of golf
The course is challenging with hills
Enjoyed the course and challenge
Wonderfully manicured
Been to this course about a dozen times and they make me feel like a trusted regular. Super-friendly staff, hot food, cold beverages, and for it being almost two months into fall, the greens, tee boxes, and fairways are in IMMACULATE condition! Always meet a new friend every time I'm there. Love it! Thanks to GolfNow, I can afford to play there whenever I can find the time. THANK YOU, GOLFNOW!!
Nice course
Nice challenging course. Greens in great shape. Very nice course layout.
Good price for golf in 2015
Some previous hole locations on the greens had turned brown in a 18" circle. Lot of dying out of green approaches in the fairways which resulted in some interesting bounces.
Great Find
Beautiful course. Rolling hills and awesome scenery. Course was in great shape and people were very friendly. Other players were courteous and allowed our twosome to play thru. Good value for the price, would definitely play here again
Nice course for the right price
Love playing valley view golf course. I have played this course many times over the past six years. If you can play 18 with a cart for around $25 bucks it's s great deal. The course offer some challenges but not to many and greens are usually in excellent shape. Now that I have moved back this my home course.
Very Scenic
Course was in great shape and the views are pretty.
Great Course
Always enjoy playing at Valley View throughout the year. The course isn't extremely challenging which allows you to work on your game. The staff is always friendly and the course always hold outings and events throughout the golf season.
This course was terrific
This is the best course I have played this year some water and sand. Course was in excellent shape
Staff is excellent
Course is starting to take shape but its still early in the year. Fairways and greens have been mowed a couple of times already. Course was not letting carts out because of all the rain the last 3 days and there was college tournament being played and we playing behind them so it was kinda slow. Be back next week.
Course is in very good shape!
This course has some of the nicest grass of any around our area...The greens are large and are fast. My husband and I played two days straight and enjoyed each round very much. The weather was nice for Fall . The leaves were a problem the first day we played but the second day they were pretty much cleaned up. I would tell anyone to try this course....very enjoyable.
Decent course...great people
I play in our league at Valley View and have always enjoyed the course And the people running the place...friendly & accommodating. I don't usually play weekends because of price & pace of play. However, I got a great rate via GN and decided to go out. As suspected, it was really slow which is difficult to take when you're used to sub-4 hr rounds.
Nice Course, Slow Play
Outside of the not so friendly staff and the slowest round of golf I've ever played, the course is pretty nice.
The conditions of the fairways, greens, and tee boxes were fantastic.
The cart paths were pretty much nonexistent and rough when they did exist.
Too many golfers walking the course. It took right around 3.5 hours to play the front 9 in a two-some. The 8th hole in particular took in the ballpark of a half an hour because of the walking group in front of us looking for lost balls and playing provisional shots.
Course is in excellent condition and greens are fast.
Challenging but fair course. Excellent scenery! Course well maintained and cut.
Not bad for 10 bucks
The only reason I played this course was the fact that it was only 10 dollars with the golfnow app. I was pleasantly surprised to find a course in very good condition, true rolling greens, and a nice level of difficulty. Only complaint was how crowded it was for a weekday afternoon.
VV is a tough challenge for any golfer right now
I have played Valley View for 10+ years and it has helped improve my game a lot. The course plays challenging this time of year with the ground starting to harden up a bit. Greens roll true and are pretty quick. Very fair course that you can score on if you hit the ball well. I would highly recommend giving the course a try if you have not already.
Great place to spend a Saturday
Excellent value , greens in good shape. Lots of nice scenery and elevation changes. Will be back !!
