Bella Vista Golf Course

Drove an hour to play here because of the reviews I read about it on GolfNow. It was well worth the drive. Multiple tee boxes, yardages everywhere, sprinkler heads, etc. Very nice layout with lots of elevation changes. An overall great golfing experience!!!

.Great course for the money. Very enjoyable layout. Keep it in the fairway and you can score well

5:20 minutes is a long time - in fact the longest that I have ever played in 30 years of golfing - 3:03 tee time was on schedule but finished at 8:23. Great course but something has to be done to keep play on track.

Bella Vista is a great modern layout and design. It was fairly long from the white tees, generously wide fairways, and large green complexes with some of the best putting surfaces I've played on. The course if very well maintained (including sand bunkers) and has some beautiful views!

enjoyed the variety of holes, topography, conditions were excellent, good drainage, as it has been wet lately, and course was in great shape, 90 degrees when many courses were cartpath only, greens nice, not fast but not slow, my putting was off, but in general I played well, will definitely be back soon

Beautiful course. Great place to play and worth every penny.

If your looking for a beautiful place to play in the heart of Lancaster county, look no farther. The course is pleasurably difficult, but is very fair to all levels of golfers. I highly recommend this course and would play here every day if time allowed.

I went out as a walking single. Was paired up w couple in mid-60s riding. We got along great and finished 9 long holes in under 2 hours. That's 2 oldeR golfears and a w.alker. Finished 18 in 3 hrs 50 mins. Included a snack bar stop at the turn. 6400 + from the tips. A par 3 island green. 2 of us parred it. Big fairways. I still missed most of em. Lotta walking but plenty of drinking water available. Starter was very friendly. Pro shop cashier also
I am coming back soon, hopefully when my driver is working so I can hit some fairways. I like the layout. A few too many surrounding houses but you can't have it all. top 5 locally. Honey rook. Broad run. Lederach. Ravens claw. Turtle creek. Pilgrims oak. Why cote. 5 ponds

Course was very nice and was maintained great. Most fairways are straight away and greens are predictable. Incredible island green on 16. Very nice course

The course was in great condition and there was very little waiting to take shots. Houses line many of the holes but they were not really a factor or in jeapardy of being hit through the entire round.

The island green is the big drawing card. It's terraced which shrinks the green down to half size if your'e trying to set up for a 1 or 2 putt so it's a very challenging par.

Course was in great shape. Greens rolled very true. Not a course for straying off line. Does not require length off the tee. Felt like it lacked some character and price for a Friday noon time was a bit much at $42.

I've played this course many times, and it is typically one of the better maintained courses in the area. On 5/29 half of the rough was super thick and looked like it had just been mowed after a week of growing (lots of clumped, dead mower clippings). The other half of the rough was already looking brown, crispy, and thin. I'm worried what is going to happen to it later in the year since summer hasn't even started yet. The greens, fairways, and tee boxes are still in excellent condition though.

Great layout with some interesting holes, and fast/undulating greens make this a fun course to play.

I enjoyed this course just don't get to play it often but everytime I play; I love it. I like the fact that although busy the staff was able to get us out promptly. The only mark or downside against the course is that they don't have a hitting range. You need to warm up before playing this course.

5/26/2013 - The course is in great shape. The staff was friendly and helpful. The course is challenging and fun for both beginners and the obsessed.

Beautifully maintained course - pace of play was a little slower than I'd prefer, but other than that it was a great experience - definitely going to head back out there in the near future!

Nice course but I found it to be a little dangerous due to the tee boxes in the opposing holes. Got hit into 3 times. It was the first time I've played here and not sure I would return. You really have to be aware of the group teeing off in front of you. Makes it hard to focus.

Ive played 7-10 courses in the area and Bella Vista is easily my favorite. The course is challenging yet fun at the same time. The greens were true, the fairways were well groomed, and the thick rough made it imperative to hit fairways. Highly recommend this course if you are in the area. Got a great rate for an afternoon tee time. Friendly staff.

Beautiful course with friendly staff. Hole 14 (island green) is a def highlight of the day.

although greens were aerated a few weeks back, greens are in great shape, fairways are in great shape for this time of year and bunkers have been worked and are pretty good shape also.

Bella Vista is the best public course in Montgomery County, period.
