Lakeview Golf Resort - Lakeview Course

Pin placement maximized difficulty.

But was a real challenge.

Always a great time.

Some were like putting on glass and other like putting on sand, lol, I’m not a super picky player but pick one LOL. Overall a very fun and well staffed course though!

The golf course has gone majorly down hill. Green absolutely suck

One of the best courses in the area. I really like the layout. The tree-lined fairways on the front offer a great challenge. The bunkers could be maintained a bit better, but overall a great course.

Course was laid out very nice! Back 9 is easier than front 9 but hole 18 is a monster of a hole! Great course and friendly staff

The staff was nice, the course was in good condition, but the cart paths are atrocious. They are worse than WV roads. Fix these immediately!!!

loohed like a long day behind a slow 4some. But they payed attention and let me play through on a day that the course was pretty busy.

Thanks for the courtesy !!!

Well played gentlemen!

Easily the best course in the Area and the price makes it even better. GPS in the carts is great and they have a beer cart person and snack shack at the turn. The two restaurants are good and the pro shop has a good selection. Would definitely recommend for a golf weekend.

It was raining, very windy & cold. Played 5 holes then left. Person at course said she couldn’t give us a rain check. Tried to call GolfNow - didn’t help. Tried to contact GolfNow online _ not successful. I think we deserve some money back or some type of rain check

First time playing out this year so it was fun to go out and just get to swinging the clubs again. I have played here before and always enjoy Lakeview.

Really only played it because it was the only course close by that was open on a nice warm day in the winter. The course has never been a very good value, but it used to be much nicer. These days I only play it if it's the only option or if I can get an unusually low price.

Due to the break in the weather, it was very busy. Many groups were going out around the time we arrived, many of them without tee times. Despite all this, when we're walking to the green on the 9th hole, a pair pulls up out of nowhere to start their round on the 10th hole. I asked them if they were told they could start on the back, and they said yes. It's hard to overstate how frustrating that is, but it seems pretty standard for Lakeview these days.

The course has a very interesting and difficult layout, but many holes have really fallen into disrepair. The first green is kind of a mess and the 14th green is an absolute disaster that you can't really putt on; there is some sort of grass disease issue that hasn't been addressed, and that's been the case for quite a while now. Those two holes are the worst, but other greens have problems as well. I know it's winter, but when there were "rakes" around bunkers, many of them didn't have any teeth; just kind of emblematic of the level of maintenance out there these days. The practice green being useless due to the grass issue also says a lot about the state of disrepair of the course. The greens fees are still set as if it's a particularly nice course, though.

The course staff posted on Facebook about people tearing up ground with carts that day, and that certainly happened; some people were being obnoxious with carts. We were very confused whether or not it was cart path only, though; I wasn't told when checking in, and the cart GPS unit was saying only certain holes were CPO. I typically play 90 degrees even when it's not CPO, but given than no one in front of or behind us was playing CPO anywhere, I gave up on that on a few holes while still being careful not to damage anything. I do hate to see people tearing up a course, but the Facebook post was kind of ironic given the general lack of oversight of anything going on on the course.

Playing in these latitudes in late December is a treat!

Always have a great time on this course

I’ll start with the positives. This is a beautiful course with a challenging and fun layout. Lots of elevation change. Several views of the lake (thus the name). Quite narrow in some places, but very fair. It’s a tough course but very enjoyable to play. Now to the negatives. The condition of the course has clearly declined over the years. Greens were very banged up and a few tee boxes had no grass whatsoever. Fairways seemed to be fine. The $23 hot deal was well worth the price, but I’m not sure I’d pay the $45+ they were asking to play in late November. All in all, I’ll be back, but I’d love to see the conditions improve because this is a fantastic layout.
