Lakeview Golf Club
Lakeview Golf Club in Harrisonburg, Virginia, offers three distinct nine-hole courses weaving through gentle hills and open fairways. Known for immaculate greens and approachable design, it suits a wide spectrum of golfers seeking a well-conditioned, scenic round in the Shenandoah Valley.
Course Overview
Lakeview Golf Club, located in Harrisonburg, Virginia, offers a flexible 27-hole layout that invites golfers of all skill levels to engage with its inviting blend of natural terrain and thoughtful course design. Divided into three distinctive nine-hole courses known as Lake, Mountain, and Peak, Lakeview presents a variety of challenges and sights that reflect the Shenandoah Valley’s gentle hills and open spaces. While the property weaves through a residential area, the housing is set back enough to maintain a strong sense of open fairways and green expanses.
The course style combines parkland characteristics with subtle elevation changes, particularly noticeable on the Mountain nine, where rolling terrain shapes strategic play around well-maintained bunkers and undulating greens. Fairways tend to be generous, offering an approachable journey for higher handicappers but with enough complexity in green contours and tee placement to keep lower handicappers engaged. Immaculate greens stand out as a signature feature throughout all 27 holes, rewarding precise approach shots and thoughtful putting.
Lakeview’s condition consistently earns praise, with green speeds and turf health noted as excellent. The staff enhances the experience through attentive service, whether assisting with club rentals or providing cold refreshments during warmer days. Players looking for a full round can tailor their approach - the course is thoughtfully arranged to allow comfortable nines or seamless 18-hole rotations.
Visitors should consider that pace of play can vary, especially during busier periods, though the ability to shift between three different nines offers flexibility to maintain a smooth rhythm. Walking is encouraged and manageable; the course’s moderate elevation changes are best enjoyed with sturdy footwear suited for varied ground underfoot. The friendly atmosphere combined with solid course conditioning establishes Lakeview Golf Club as a valuable destination for golfers seeking a well-kept, diverse round in central Virginia’s scenic setting.
Course Highlights
The Mountain nine stands out with its rolling elevations and challenging green complexes that test shot-making and putting skills. Immaculate greens and well-placed bunkers across all three nines contribute to a rewarding play experience. The club’s modern simulator offers an additional way to practice and enjoy golf year-round.

Best condition course I've played in the area. The fairways, tees, and greens were in great shape. It plays through a housing development but the houses are not right on top of the couse. The cost for playing 9 was a bit higher than I'm used to paying. But I'll definitely be playing again.

Greens are immaculate right now. Some patches in the fairways but overall Lake and Mountain are playing great! Staff was awesome and check in was a breeze, starter was extremely friendly. I hope to play Peak soon! Thanks for a great experience LGC team!

Had a very positive experience at the Golf Club. I had to use a rental set of clubs, the club shop attendant, Ben, helped me put together a set of clubs that worked best for me. He was professional and positive. The course is in excellent condition, the Mountain 9 the best of the 27 holes. Also, I used the golf simulator at the club to test a 3wood and it is one of the nicest simulators I have played on! Excellent staff!

Nice course to play. Staff were very friendly and provided ice and water at no charge to help endure the heat wave. Would definitely return if we're back in the area.
