A day playing Lake Monticello

Great Course. Course was saturated with the amount of rain we have had in the last week. Other than being wet, it was still a great day to be out with friends playing. I would recommend this course to anyone passing through the area that may want to get out and play a round that won't hurt the wallet. Staff keeps the course in great shape.

Worth the Drive

This was the only Charlottesville area course listed on Tee Off, and the reviews were good, so I gave it a try. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the course on a beautiful fall day. Nice layout, and overall the course was in good condition. The greens had been aerated about two weeks before we played but were in decent shape. The clubhouse appeared to have been recently renovated and was very nice. The golf carts were also nearly new and in excellent condition. I would play there again despite the 30 minute drive from town.

Good course

The course was in good shape other than a few tee boxes. The greens were full of divots from people not repairing. They really need to get rangers out badly. The pace of play was excruciating. It took 6hr and 45min for us to get through 18. The group in front of us were making social media videos and posts, editing, and playing multiple balls for all 4 of them. They refused to let anyone play through because it would "ruin their videos". No one in the clubhouse would answer when called while on the course.

Hidden Gem

Had an awesome time at this course and can’t wait to bring some friends back to play again. A few narrow holes make it a challenge if you’re not hitting it straight off the tee so keep that in mind when selecting your club. Greens were in great shape and pace of play was very good.

Love the course

Not a long course but not an easy layout. Some very strategic holes requiring some thought and proper execution on your shots.

Excellent course, fun & challenging

One important note: it's a public course in a private gated community. Must call course to get code just to drive in. Other than that. Great course, has some uncomplicated holes, then some difficult holes, must cross water a few times. Lots dog left and right holes. Greens in excellent condition. Would definitely play it again if I'm in the area.

When you’re on this golf course it’s hard to believe you’re in Virginia

I absolutely love that it was very difficult. I love how they have the scorecard set up so you can play from a yardage that you’re comfortable with. The tea boxes were in good shape. The grays were perfect. I can’t really say enough good things about this golf course I think people that, don’t know what to look for in a good track. Well say this is an average track but I’m telling you this golf. Course is immaculate. I can’t wait to play it again. Just remember if you play this golf course you must ask for the code to get in the gate or the residence will call the sheriff lol other than that I couldn’t find much wrong to say love that 4.5 stars.

Lake Monticello Golf Club

Course was in great shape, Played the front 9 in 1.5 hours (1st player on the course) Back 9 in 2.75 hours (ladies tournament - shotgun). Very picturesque design and an enjoyable challenge to play! If I am in the area, I am definitely going to replay!

Great course

4th time playing here and it just gets better. It’s beautiful and challenging and in great condition. Not overly crowded on a Thursday morning. Tucked away in a large, gated, peaceful private community. Used a golf cart but .a push but a pushcart is doable if you’re up for the walk. Lots of hills and territory to cover.
