Nice course, Great Location!

This course is great value for money and it's location is fantastic for getting to from downtown Toronto. Course is well maintained and is fun to get out to. This isn't a high end course but its a city course that is relatively inexpensive and does what it needs to well

Conditions Excellent 5.45 hrs to play 18 holes on cart!

Conditions were excellent, weather perfect, but they had no Marshall in sight, and two carting groups combined ahead of us to play as a 7-some and it took us 5 hrs and 45 mins to play the course due to them. We were carting as well.

Lakeview Golf Course

As this was first time at this City course, it was extremely tight and the designer should have consider this. Two holes, 10 & 11 are played over the driveway into the facility. We were almost hit 4 times by the group behind us, not there fault entirely, its the layout of the course.

I won't recommend this course.

The snack bar apparently closes at 3pm.

Great municipal vibe

Great conditions at this course. Really interesting layout, and very tight off the tee from the tips. No driving range, but there are cages below the starter house (wish I knew before seeing from the back 9).

Horrible Value For $$

the staff were ok, and course was great, marshals knew nothing about the pace of play or wait times. Also really overpriced on a Saturday for a city course.6 hour rounds should not exist!

Lakeview GC

Good course and staff are friendly. Some holes layout is very ackward and have to back track. Holes are too close to one another and can be very dangerous when you're in the line of fire. Would not be surpirse if someone gets seriously hurt on this course.

always enjoyable

I have played Lakeview for almost 50 years! It remains a fun place to play and is always in good shape.
Greens are not in prime condition yet, but are usually pretty good.

Treat in the city

If your looking to play and not waste 1 1/2hrs in the car getting to a coarse? Then consider Lakeview a classic old school coarse! Watch out for the 6th hole a tough par 4, always in to the wind, and the gimmicky 12th the bell hole.
Give it a try!

Good Fall Conditions

The greens on this course have been aerated, but still putted fairly well. The rest of the course is in great condition for fall. But, I learned something for fall golf. Check out the courses website before booking, as I discovered I could have booked through the course for the same price, but without the online booking fees. The discount shown online was off the full summer rate. Also, the starter was great, very courteous. If the starter/players assistant appears to be giving you a hard time (remember, they don't make the rules, but enforce them), it's because you're not following course guidelines.

Good Challenge

I found this course very tough as I was probably playing my worst golf ever. However, if you are a good golfer the challenges offer a good deal of risk and reward. Not very long, this course pays good dividends if you are accurate of the tee. Some holes though are unreasonable for the high handicapped amateur even off the forward tees like the 9th hole and the 16th hole. 200 plus yards to an uphill par 3 is just too much of a challenge. It is the end of the season so the greens are predictable and mostly devoid of grass.

This course has character

The pace is very slow and towards the end there was the marshall but he was more interested in finding balls than speed up the play.

great public course

I have played Lakeview many times in the last 30 years. This was my first time in 5 years. It was great to see the many new improvements that were made. There are still many challenging tee shots, but some new forward tees made it a little easier for my wife (a 22 handicap). The greens were still hard and fast, but much greener, and a little easier to put. The sand traps were all redone with white sand, and gave the course a beautiful look. I was very impressed with the makeover of the course......not so much with the hiked up fees, or over 5 hour round.

Sunday Afternoon Golf

Really Slow day - we didn't finish the course because it was going to take us over 5.5hrs as groups ahead of us were really really slow. Course Marshall would be a good idea on weekends at least to help speed things up.
