Reviews

i am a golfer not a revieuwer
I would play this course again very nice to bad if you think my review is to short
Holes 9 & 18
Seventeen of the holes on this course are challenging but playable. However, holes 9 and 18 are along a steep hillside and it is virtually impossible to hit a shot that will stay up in or even near the fairway. Balls are hard to locate as they usually are nowhere close to where they initially land and the grass in the rough is tall.
Best value in town
The course is tucked away in a very nice gated community. The landscape is prime with a beautiful over look of the cheat river. The greens are challenging always keep you on your toes. The lay out of the coruse is fun as well. Over all this is my favorite coruse in the Morgantown area.
Course needs updating
Cons-
No yardage markers any where on course
No drinking water on course
All ball washers were dry
Greens were punched and all the dirt from the punching was just dumped all over the course
Pros
Inexpensive green fee
Mountainview course
This course is in pretty good shape for being so early in the season and with all the rain we had the week prior. They recently aerated and sanded the greens when I went so that threw off my putting a bit, but all things considered this is a pretty good spot
Lakeview, nice layout!
Our first time playing Lakeview resort and we selected the Lakeview course through GolfNow's hot deals. Tee times were spaced 10 minutes apart, but we still landed up waiting a couple minutes on a few holes, due to fall leaves and difficulty finding your ball if you stray off the fairways. Fairways and greens were in very good shape. The front nine is challenging with narrow fairways and several sand traps surrounding the greens. The back nine is more open. We had a very enjoyable round with absolutely beautiful scenery. It's a shame the facilities on the course were not replenished with soap and the express restaurant at the turn was closed even though the course was fairly busy. Will definitely return next year and try the Mountain view course!
Lakeview golf course
Very nice shape. treated very well. would play again
Mountainview
Course was fun, hard, aesthetically pleasing. Not as well maintained as lakeview, but better views and variety of holes. Can't beat the value here thru GN. Will definitely be coming back.
Challenging Course with Great Conditions
I used every Club in my bag--didn't see 150 yard markers, and afte askibng was told they were suppose to be the white/black poles stuck in Fairways, which I thought were for directions on shots, some of which are blind--the poles are not @ 150 yards., either, I was also told---tees, fairways, and greens were cut very shot, and were very green--had to watch where shots might take a side bounce, due to topography
The Old Girl Has Fallen
15 years ago this course was a gem, not to be missed if in the area. Not sure what has happened but the overall condition of the course has fallen dramatically. Unfortunately, the quality of the staff and their attitudes appear to have fallen along with the course. There are much better courses and far better values in the area. Skip it and hope for a rebound someday.
Nice course with lots of scenery
The course is a well maintained, visually impressive course. Very challenging layout with plenty of twists and turns. The staff was ok, but not very outgoing, except for one young man. He tried his best to correct a very bad situation with an eightsome in front of us. They were playing a personal scramble, and moved as two foursome from the tee, but not anywhere else. This create long delays for us. We played the first 3 holes before we encountered them, and then followed on 4-6, before returning to no. 4 to tried and put space between us. We played 4-9, and ran up on them again. The young man I mentioned tried to get them to move, or step aside with little success. Finally, after the 11th hole they stepped aside, and we skipped that hole. Once clear, our group completed the remaining holes in 1 1/2 hours. After driving four hours to play this course, I was a little more than frustrated. That is why I waited until the 1st of September to write my review. We also encountered issues with a grounds crew member that decided to mow the par 3 while we were teeing off over his head. If you plan on visiting this course, I suggest that you plan on six hours for the round.
Bees drilling holes in green?
This course is poorly designed. Too close to backyards all around the course, OB stakes 5 yards from fairway. Very unfair. Greens had nice pace but did not hold at all. My biggest pet peeve about this course is no one fixed their ball marks and there were these HUGE bees that were drilling holes in the green, pretty much ruining some holes greens. More course maitenence is needed for sure.
Do not waste your time or money at MOUNTAINVIEW
It was my first time to west virginia to golf. I was very eager to play one of the LakeView courses as I had heard nothing but good reviews of both of them. I decided to play the Mountainview course as it was a couple bucks cheaper and my time was limited.
Pros: Friendly Staff
Cons: Almost all greens were torn apart by these giant bee's.
Bunkers were cement with a thin layer of rocky sand.
use all your clubs on this course
Great little layout. Greens rolled true with good pace. Played after several days of storms but course was in great shape.
Nice Course
Very good course. I would definitely play again. Staff was great.
Hard course mountain view is!
Really hard course especially for playing for the first time!
Slow. Play.
In all honesty, you can't beat the deal that my wife and I had on Sunday. We drove down to the Golftoberfest at Lakeview Resort in Morgantown, WV on a beautiful autumn afternoon. The forecast was for showers, but we never had any. Other than losing balls in the rough and woods because of falling leaves (it is autumn, after all), the course was very well maintained. Our only real problem was the threesome of older gentlemen that we were following. Either they didn't have a clue about golf course etiquette, or they just didn't care. They played "golf by committee," where they all went to the ball being played, rather than getting ready to hit the next shot. By the end of the round, there were well over two holes between them and the group in front of them. We waited on almost every shot and our round took about 5 hours. The only reason that I bring this up is that Lakeview does not employ rangers......something they should consider.
But if you're in the neighborhood, you'll get a round of golf on a really nice course, a bowl of chili, any sandwich off of the menu and a glass of beer for just $39.95.
The course was in good condition. Very fast greens.
The course was in good condition. Very fast greens. Lots of blind shots.
Good course if not paying full price.
There does not appear to be much maintenance going on. Considering that, the course is in good shape.
It is not worth the full price of $80. We played with a GolfNow coupon and that made it worthwhile.
