Unhappy

The best part of this experience was booking through GOLFNOW. Had I paid full price to play this course I would have been very upset. The conditions were horrible, greens were tore up and browned. The pace of play was RIDICULOUS. We ended up only playing 12 holes and that took us 5 hours. So I can't speak to the last 6 holes, but the first 12 weren't anyhing to brag about. Food at the Legends Express? Couldn't tell you, they were out of everything except candy. I got a drink that was frozen solid. Overall my experience was horrible, my first and last time at Lakeview.

Nice Views but a tight course

Lakeview is a great setting for a golf course. It has interesting holes with lots of elevation changes. The course is in pretty good shape. There are a number of very tight holes, especially when played from the tips, as overhanging trees make several of the holes very difficult to hit a safe tee shot.
There are nicer course, but if you can play it for less than $30, it's worth the drive. Be sure to look for Nicklaus' plaque to the left of the 18th fairway (about 275 yards out).

great personel

This course is nice....no doubt. But it is the kind and considerate people that work...and play there that make this course worth my while to drive to from Pittsburgh. I will continue to play this course as long as they operate in the fashion they do at this time. Thank you for keep golf classy.

Tough course

Lots and up and down hills. Very narrow drive lanes with a lot of trees. You will loose a lot of balls if your driver isn't straight. Greens were average but I played late in the season.

Excellent challenge

Played both the lake view course and the mountain course. Greens were in excellent condition and true . Fairways also excellent although some were slanted and difficult to play as roll would turn a great shot into a find and seek exercise in the rough. The mountain view course was not long but most shots were blind and if you have an issue with heights - this may not be the course for you. I thoroughly enjoyed both courses and would return in a second. But I would not expect to have a great score on either course

Narrow, Mature Fairways and questionable rates

I went to school at WVU which is were I learned the game of golf. Lakeview was always a course i wanted to play but on a College budget knew it was too expensive to play.

Well 20 years later I returned to knock this course off of my bucket list and I was a bit disappointed.

The typical summer rate for 18 is $80. Luckily I was able to use the Golf Now rate of $29. I will say for $29 it's a great course and worth the $ but I would have been upset had I paid full price of $80.

The front 9 needed some maintenance. The greens were spotty and the rough was full of crabgrass and dandelions and the fairways were pretty beat up. The course layout itself is fun and scenic and challenging. It can be a bit to narrow at times, and keeping your driver in the bad is probably the best option.

The back 9 was in better condition but even more narrow and at times overgrown with mature HUGE trees.

I would play there again at the lower $29 but would find it hard to recommend a buddy play at full price.

BRING YOUR A- GAME TO LAKEVIEW

COURSE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. PLAY WAS VERY SLOW. 5 1/2 HOURS. PROBABLY CAUSED BY COURSE DIFFICULTY (TIGHT TREE LINED FAIRWAYS) AND INEXPERIENCED GOLFERS LOOKING FOR LOST BALLS IN THE TREES. #18 IS A BEAR- OVER 600 YARDS UPHILL TREE LINED FAIRWAY- PLAYS LIKE 700 YARDS. TOO TUFF FOR TYPICAL RESORT GOLFERS WHO PLAY OCCASIONALLY.

What happened?

This used to be a favorite - but what happened to the maintenance team? The conditions are not what it used to be. The cart paths are the worst in the world and they have forgotten the little things that used to make this place really special. At the right rate, play on.

30 minute drive down 43

The course was typical for what you would see in this part of the country, thick rough, tight fairway, a lot of ball above/ball below feet shots. The greens were in excellent shape and the course layout was challenging. I will play this course again in the future. I'm not sure of the full price green fees w/ cart b/c I booked a hot deal t-time. If you're in Westmorland or Fayette county and want to try something other that ceaderbook/duck hollow/nemicolin hop on 43 drive 30 mins and get your money's worth on this course.

Great course.

Great course to play with good golf holes and scenic views all over the course. It's a resort so get ready for slow play but if you can get past the 5 hour round it's a great place to play.

great course

first time playing this course and I loved it. The coursewas very well maintained and the staff was very friendly. Something to keep in mind is that they do not have a driving range, only a putting green which was not a huge issue but something to know before you go.this is one of my new favorite courses in the Midwest
