So bad

You would think that if the course had been neglected this bad, they would at least come off their price a little bit. Seriously the worst greens I’ve ever saw. They are definitely going to lose some customers.

Greens and Tee boxes need serious work

For the price to play. The greens were horrible. Patchy with dirt. Not very “green”. Hard as a rock with no consistency. Most tee boxes were in rough shape or needed to be mowed. Fairways were nice though

Worst Greens This Year

I have been wanting to play this course all my life, a PGA stop 20 years ago. I Could not believe they completely lost the greens, most greens covered with Poiana, or so thin, like putting on dirt.

Every green had bunkers that were over 6 feet deep, and obviously have not been raked in days.

Poa Annua Galore

Love playing the Mtn View course. The greens have too much poa annua weeds for a resort course, however. Thank goodness for Hot Deal rates.

Waste of money!

Decided to play here on our way back from Grand National to the ATL airport. What a mistake. Tees were sparse fairways very marginal in many spots and greens were awful (no grass). And all this for $97. What a disappointment. Not recommended at all

Last Time !

Me and golfing buddy drove 55 minutes to play Mountain View. There were a lot of vacant tee times available, that should have been my sign. Got there right at tee time due to GPS taking us the scenic route, so no practice balls. Check in was quick, we were greeted at the bag drop off - then we were told the Lake View course was closed and everyone was playing the Mountain View course. Brutally slow….. Belive it or not, this was not our biggest disappointment. THE GREENS were horrible. Mosly dirt / mud because it had rained a few days before. Was not even worth the Hot Deal price. I will admit, most rest of the couse was satisfactory- mowed rough, fairways nice, bunkers ok. But the greens were as I said - HORRIBLE! Played this course last year and enjoyed it. I will never go back.

Not worth the rack money at full price.

We managed to get a hot deal so value suited the course. This "resort" course is anything but that. No range balls, no real putting green that we saw. We might have missed it since there was no real direction from the desk attendant as we seemed more of a distraction from watching golf than providing any info on the course. Course was in fair shape give the time of year. It's not a bad course but just a lackluster experience given the description of a former PGA TOUR resort course.

Great course, still some issues with the greens

Mountain View is a great course. The staff is very friendly and the inside restaurant is great. The only negative is that a few of the greens still have some issues with Poana grass, especially the 18th green. It's something they've been fighting for over a year now. The good news is that they cut the greens short and roll them, so they are still very quick. And with the exception of the 18th green (which is very bumpy because of the Poana), the rest of the greens roll smoothly. Other than that, the fairways and rough are in great shape for this time of year, as are the bunkers.

Course is improving

A new course superintendent was hired 2 months ago. Improvements are being made. Overall rating is because of the setting and surroundings. Weeds are being managed, rough mowed, green fringes are much better, and some new sand added. Greens are slow but in better shape than this spring. They need to work on the Poa annua It still is not a value at the rack rate. Competition in area has better value at rack rate. GolfNow special rate is of value. Food is great at Champions.

Mountain View

Mountain View was in terrible condition. It is a stretch to say it was worth the $35.00 I paid.

Terrible, and disappointing!

Great scenery

I love the views while playing my round. The greens need work. The bunkers need more sand. I enjoyed playing.

Poor condition!

Course has never been in this condition. Greens we’re basically unplayable. Over priced for the shape of the course. Hard to believe there was a PGA event there at one time. Great layout……..SAD!
