AWFUL CONDITIONS

Played here back in the day when it was a hidden gem. Was expecting the same but wow, not the case. Greens were horrendous. Burned out patches on first couple of greens and still not fully recovered from an earlier aerification. Too many courses in the tri-state area are in awesome condition this time of the year. Avoid this course. What a shame. Quit after two holes that’s how bad the course condition was, particularly the greens. Sad thing is, I had to eat the cost of the greens fee as the golf pro claimed the course conditions were “amazing” and “fantastic.”

A shame

This course and mountainview used to be great.... they are now awful. Lakeview is the premier course with mountainview being less nice sister course. If you want to play lakeview on a weekend it will cost about $75. I wouldn’t pay $20 to play a course in this condition. The employees act like it’s in great shape and a hidden gem, 15 years ago that was true now it’s complete trash. I was terribly disappointed they let a beautiful course fall into unplayable shambles. The next day I tried out mountainview and the person working the counter recognized me. He wouldn’t even accept my money, let me play for free because of how terrible it was. In the back to back days I spent on the courses I didn’t see a single person working on anything, not a single lawn mower running. It’s a shame but find somewhere else.

Not what it used to be

Course is not among the better courses in Western PA & Notthern WV. Tee boxes were sand, rough was not cut nor groomed, bunkers were not good and several greens were recently plugged. Last played this course About 10 years ago and today I was disappointed to find the course in this kind of shape. I understand there is new ownership and hopefully they can restore the Lakeside Course to its original condition. The course has a nice layout and great views with some holes overlooking Cheat Lake and the mountain valleys.

Course in rough shape

The course seems to have a lot of potential but in its current state, the course is in very poor condition. I would highly recommend playing elsewhere. Hopefully next summer will be better; but it needs A LOT of work.

Let the staff take care of you!

What a beautiful course! The staff are really helpful and easy to work with. Cassidy, the supervisor was knowledgeable and great to work with. I traveled from Ohio and wanted to play while I was out of town. Setting up a tee time over the phone was simple and easy. Even though I arrived a few minutes late they were chill and let me get out right away. I even forgot a jacket a cigar clip holder and they went to look for each on my behalf.

While I love this course and its layout, the course was not in the condition I expect from a resort course. The green were in poor shape and the sand traps have less sand than my car mats when I come home from vacation. I sincerely hope that this course returns to its normal standards next year.

Goodish

Nice course layout. Fun to play. Rough on some tees and greens. But it is 2020. And they just aerated the greens. So I'm not going to beat them up to hard. It was a fun day. And the carts dont suck.

Bad Greens & No Drink Service

This is a very pretty and challenging course but the greens and sand traps are in rough shape. We played 18 holes on a holiday weekend Saturday and never once saw a beverage cart. It would have very much enhanced the experience to have been offered on-course service. Decent value for the money but I’ll go somewhere a little more accommodating next time.

Wet weather

Not aerated........glad I called before driving 60 miles

With lots of rain in the forecast, I called a few days in advance to see if the course might be closed. The helpful guy in the pro shop told me we wouldn't be playing anyway as they were closing the course for fall aeration. When I asked if he had any suggestions about how to handle my situation having already paid Golf Now he suggested I call their customer service. I did and was treated fairly by the rep. who "refunded" my previous expenses with "promos". Hope to get out to the course another time.

Not a bad day.

Staff was pretty much just there to take your money. Not overly helpful but not rude or anything either. Had to find my own way around a new place to me. But I managed. Its not rocket science. The course was wet and haf some bare spots. But it was good in the important spots. We do need rain. So the selective watering is understandable. Pace of play was great. But it wasnt a busy day due to incliment weather. Course was narrow in places but not frustratingly difficult. I would say. Yes, worth the money. But understand the year we are in.

Perfect weather
Used cart

Very disappointed

We played this course on 8/10/2020. It was completely dried out and the greens were cracked open. The entire course was in poor condition- tee boxes were exremely patchy. Save your money and go to another course.

Double Booked Us

Our tee time was at 10:20, in the middle of a group of 20+ people. No mention was every mentioned to us about this. We waited 30+ minutes for a cart. When we asked to starter for a cart, he accused us of being at the wrong course. We were not. It poured rain in the middle of our round and they didn’t want to give us a rain check despite having lightning and thunder and pouring rain. Very disappointing day.
