Mountain View Country Club

Mountain View is a challenging course. There are long par 3's and 5's. Many elevated greens that make the course play longer than its yardage. Course was in great condition. the greens putt true and fast.

Great course. Great conditions. Tee boxes, greens, and fairways all in very good condition.
Will play again soon.

This course is well kept. I'd say it's easy to medium difficulty. Fairways are wide. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I only play here when I can get a good rate from GolfNow.com because it's a little out of my normal price range, but I always enjoy it thoroughly.

A good course to play. The personnel are friendly.

I've played this course many times. Its a challenging course and a good test of skill.

I was paired with two other singles. We all had a great time enjoying each others company.

However, it seems as many courses in the area were stricken with greens damage this past winter. Many of the greens were damaged and they are aerating to help fix the greens.

Great value for a HOT DEAL time. I played for $15 plus tax.

Played Mountain View course on short notice and found an incredible Hot Deal to top off a glorious fall round.

The staff and management here really puts an incredible amount of effort into updating and maintaining this course. The greens roll perfectly true, and are more difficult than they look. They recently updated the layout of a few holes to get rid of the awkward doglegs and super short holes that used to exist. There are several scoring holes on each 9, but also several survival holes including some long par 3s to balance out the course. This is one of the best courses in Central PA.

Staff was very accomodating and although there wasn't a starter on this Monday I got paired by accident with two pros, Jeb and Dustin. Man, could they play and they were very friendly and tolerant of my weak mis-hits. I found the greens on this course very difficult but the rough around the fairways survivable. I really enjoyed playing alongside these two very good players. Oh yea, the course was in great shape.

While the course has lots of challnges and in good condition. we were disappointed that at check-in we learned we only had 45 minutest to play seven holes before a golf event would shotgun start off holes 1-7. No solution was offered (have us start on the back nine? delay the shotgun until other patrons cleared 1-7?). They blamed the problem on Golfnow! This is the second time something like this has occurred at this course.

I had been told by others that this was a course I had to play. I played it and it was OK. Nothing overly special. I had to drive approximately 65 mile each way and won't be in any hurry to drive that distance to play this course again.

Greens are very challenging for beginners as they are very fast and tilted front to back or side to side but great practice

I really enjoyed playing the course and watching my son score well on a really beautiful sunny day - can't ask for much more than thatt

Course came under new ownership recently. Front nine has been re-routed and is undergoing landscaping. Turning #7 into a par 5 is a welcome change -- it was really too long and uphill to be a reasonable par 4, and it makes a much better par 5 than the old "birdhouse hole" (which has been shortened to a par 4). Converting the old #6 par 3 into a driveable par 4 (new #5) may be a problem -- there were several foursomes backed up on the tee when we played. Overall, the greens were in great shape, and much less slick than in past years (though that was partly due to the damp weather).

Great value for the money using a Golf Now tee time -- would consider it average value based on the regular greens fee.

Somehow seems more "welcoming" than when it was the Elks Club.

I played when it was the Elks and some of the greens are quite a challenge. The course is well maintained. They have recently change hole 4,5 & 6 and so there is a temporary t-box on one hole. The changes help keep people from slicing into traffic and remove a bit of a gimmicky dogleg around a bird house. The greens keeper told me the goal was the make the course more fun. I think it's a little easier now. Hole 11 is not great since it's all on a slope, but the is variety and we enjoy it.

Conditions not as pristine as past but still very good. Too many change on front 9 which plays like an executive course.

The staff was extremely friendly. A huge storm came up as my group was finishing the first nine holes. The folks in the pro shop immediately offered us a credit for nine holes at a future time. This has not always been my experience at other courses.

would recomend replay,good challenge but is playable for high handicapper,greens and tee's are well maitained and staff is friendly, the layout is open and play should move along i give this course 9 on scale of ten for a public course

... and then hit 'em straight. If you're in the fairway, scores are out there to be had. Even the rough is fair, so plenty of shots are salvageable, but the greens are very challenging and there are plenty of opportunities to get into trouble left and right on nearly every hole. Of the courses in the area, this is my favorite, though a much more reasonably-priced twilight or walking special is needed.

glad I played but probably will not play it again, course was in great shape

Enjoyed a great afternoon with friends -- will definitely be back !!
