Not the best shape I've seen this course in

I played this course a couple of times about five years ago and was very impressed. This time most of the greens were in rough shape, which has been attributed to the harsh winter. Since this was my first round of the year, I can't compare it to other courses -- which may also be suffering from the same problem. But I got a discounted $36 (plus taxes) rate, so I was happy and will return.

Overrated and Over Priced

This course is in terrible condition and shouldn't be near the price they are normally asking. Not one green on the entire course was decent they were all covered in fertilizer or something and divots, bald spots and bumps everywhere. The fairways were decent at best and overall a big disappointment for what was at one time a really nice course years back when I last played. This place has gone downhill big time and won't likely play here again especially at the ridiculous price they are asking to play at regular rates and even at discount rates it is not enjoyable when you cant even make a putt.

The course is poorly manage and taken care of. Although we had a tough winter other nearby courses are in much better shape. An embarrassment to the city of mississauga.

Good value

It started raining so we only played 3 holes. We did get a full rain check for the amount paid. The greens are in need if repair after the terrible winter damage. The course's walking rate is very reasonable and reflects the current condition. Some courses are charging regular rates even though their course is in terrible condition. Lakeview will definitely get by business if they keep their rates reasonable.

Maybe the course should be playable before it is open to the public?!?

I was looking forward to the round as I have not played at Lakeview for about 3 years. By the time I walked off the second green I was thinking of just going back to the clubhouse and getting my money back. The greens were a complete mess, and frankly un-puttable. We established a two putt maximum per hole to account for the conditions. Tee boxes were spotty at best, and it was hard to find even footing. Fairways were also spotty, with lots of dead patches. Overall, I wish I had something nice to say, but I really don't.....

Winter has been extremely hard on this course. Unputtable greens. This course will not recover enough to make me return this year.

Poor condition

This is the worst golf course I play this season, all the greens are sick and terrible . I feel sorry for those golfer who pay full price to play. None of the green can putt, so embarrassed to brought my friends there. I would not recommend anybody to play there.

Poor Conditions

Haven't played here for a few years, often find better value in the GTA.

I wasn't expecting great conditions due to the winter we had but what I do expect is for them to let you know of temp greens, tarp on some greens etc. this was never mentioned by the people in the pro shop or with an icon on golfnow. It felt like they just took your money without any care. I doubt I'll be back.

Tough winter

The golf course took a beating this winter. Course is in poor shape but the rates reflect the conditions. As for the staff, they've always been great and I'm sure they will have the course back to normal in a couple weeks. Can't complain when you're playing golf. Always fun to play lake view golf course.

Hard winter

Winter was not very kind to this course. The greens were not very good and there were many dead spots. I'm glad I got the 50% off price. I've played it in the summer and its a much nicer course.

Damaged and in poor condition!

Lakeview has been negatively impacted by inclement weather last winter, so much so that greens are virtually unplayable. This is a tragedy for those of you who've played it before. It will take time and $$$ to bring this back to any level of acceptability. If you do play it, be forewarned!

A lot of winter damage

Greens and fairways have extensive winter damage and require a lot of rehab. The course is not up to its usual standards. The greens keeper has a lot of work to do.

Winter Kill

Should not be charging 40+ for seniors, at this time, with course in such poor disrepair. Both the greens and fairways will need major upgrading from the winter kill.

Serious Winter Damage

This course which historically held the Canadian Open in the 1920s and 30s has been a course I wanted to play for a number of years but could not due to the business of the course. I was looking forward to it but, this year but the course and many nearby courses have been hit very hard by the extreme winter the Toronto area experienced this year. The Poa greens were in awful shape. Fairways were below average, at best. According to the pro shop, any golf course with Poa greens were equally stressed. Very sad.

Worst conditions I've ever played - anywhere

I hadn't played this course in about 6 years, but decided to take advantage of a low spring rate on Golf Now. The harsh winter was not kind to Lakeview! Every single green and tee box is virtually dead , and top dressed with sand. I'll be interested to see if they actually come back to a playable condition later in the season. I'm no horticulturist, but it sure didn't look promising. I was told that it was because they are "Poa" grass rather than the more durable "bent grass". Again, it would seem to me that in a climate like this, why would you use that type of grass ?
If you're considering this course later in the season, I'd suggest calling ahead to inquire about conditions
