Great afternoon golfing

Mt View has upgraded their course the last few years from when it was the Elks CC. Well done.

Early Oct round. Great weather. Greens were in fabulous shape. Went out in afternoon. Played front as a single and matched up with 3 retirees on back. Great afternoon of getting out to play golf.
The newer 12th hole is very nice and challenging!!

Course still needs to do something about #11 where total fairway is sloped on hill. You can hit straight down middle and it will roll off fairway to the left. Must hit right of the fairway for it to roll back down into fairway.

Early October afternoon

I got a great rate online! I have played this course a few times. The conditions were great, especially for October! The greens were still very fast.It is a tough course, with a lot of uphill and downhill lies. They are making some changes, but make it very playable.

Saturday play

Play on front 9 went well. Back 9 went slow because of slower players. Greens were rough from previous airrating at some point. The overall course was a nice layout and had some challenging shot placements. Had a fun time for the most part. Will play this course again as it is closer than some courses I play.

Great value

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.

Probably the nicest course in state college pa

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.

Great Value for HOT DEAL tee time

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.

Well maintained and surprisingly challenging course

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.
