At this excellent par-4, the third fairway curves around a large pond, a threat to both drive and approach shot. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 12/13/2022

The fifth is a long par-4 that plays downhill from a high tee, then on towards this sprawling green. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 12/13/2022

Seven, a long par-3, is easily one of the course’s hardest holes–partly because it is so well protected by greenside bunkers. Photo submitted by AptlyLinked on 12/13/2022

Improved
I have played here three times now. The first two times I wasn’t impressed, I even left a bad review after the second time after a frustrating round. However in the last few months, they have greatly improved the course. The greens, although on the slower side, were in great condition and were constant through all 18 holes. The bunkers have been improved upon greatly as well. They still need work, but are better than before. Some tee boxes need some work as well. Overall, they have done a nice job improving the conditions. If they keep this up, I’ll be playing here more often!
Recent storm(Isaias) reeked havoc!
Back nine was a mess. Front nine grass was high and the cut grass was left piled up w/o cleanup. The crew obviously can’t keep up the upkeep!
Hi, Bandog. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Laurel View Country Club. We hope to see you again in the future.
Classic course good value
A classic course. Some traps not maintained and rough and fairways are not in great shape, but greens are good, layout is challenging and price is good.
Thank you for your review, u413149109. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Laurel View Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
needs work
Some greens okay some not fairways okay tee boxes need help broken tees all over most tees not cleaned bunkers not playable no sand in them

Could be so much more
Great layout, brand new carts, good staff but, unfortunately LV is currently in a “rebuild” mode. A decade of poor management has left this track rough shape. Other than a few, most. bunkers are unplayable; rocks and dirt, rather than sand. Cart path is almost dangerously ragged. Would love to see a private firm buy, this course from the town of Hamden and bring it back to it’s full potential
Hi, u000006304748! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. Thanks for choosing Laurel View Country Club. We hope to see you back!
Once was a beautiful course
This course has such a great layout. It’s so disappointing how bad they let it get. Sand traps haven’t had sand in years, tee boxes beat up, and the greens need to be watered so bad, I honestly think they cover them when it rains. Such a shame how quickly this place went downhill and how it can’t climb out of the hole. It’s the Wild West, you can tee off whenever you feel like it, I’ve seen people not pay and jump in a cart, I’ve seen people not pay and just jump on the back. With that, anyone that’s foolish enough to pay to play there, they stick it.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing Laurel View Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Nice staff but really bad course conditions!!! I’d rather pay double the amount to play a decent course
Hello, and thanks for the review. We see you rated the course 1 star. We take single star feedback very seriously at our course, and we always appreciate the feedback. Please reach out to our team in the golf shop. Thank you for playing Laurel View Country Club.
Laurel View a fine layout
The biggest negative is the cart path quality. Probably the worst I have seen and felt. Bunkers are unsatisfactory and unplayable. The course is interesting and the layout is excellent, of course very hilly, but that adds to the challenge. Sot my age today, which is okay as I am 86 years old next Tuesday.
Hello and happy birthday! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make a note and we hope to see you back at Laurel View Country Club!

Save your money
The management at this place is atrocious. No sand in the bunkers (just dirt and rocks), the driving range hasn’t been operational in decades, and it says they offer pass perks, but when I asked the owner about them (he was on his phone while being the only employee in the pro shop), he had no idea what I was talking about. On top of it all, the cart was $25. So the $27 hot deal actually ends up being $52, for a course that is barely being taken care of at all. What a ripoff. The owner is clearly just making a quick buck while people will pay $60 for any golf course right now, instead of investing money back into the course.

Ct Pat
Bunkers were just dirt holes, no sand.
Hot deal was not so hot since to my surprise, did not include carts. Did not pay attention to this since in the past carts were always include. In this case turned out to be same price as the green fees. Too much.
Hello, Pat. Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the sand traps is important to us. We are working to get everything at the course up to par. We have a project to tile the bunkers and restore them. The current condition is not the standard we strive to achieve. We will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing Laurel View Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Great Course
When I played at Laurel View I could not believe my eyes it was my first time playing their this year and the improvements and changes they have made are spectacular. The greens and fairways are in amazing shape. The food from the 19th hole was outstanding and the service was even better.I ordered a burger and it was delivered to me on the course. The staff is very friendly. Overall I had a very good experience playing at Laure View and will definitely be returning.

Save your money and play somewhere else. Bunkers don’t even exist here and you wait on each tee box for ten minutes to tee off
