Mountain View Golf Course

Again I can say enough about this place. Great service, great ambience awesome fairways greens and tees!!! Awesome place GO VISIT!!!

I do not live in the area and have chosen mountain view golf course, as a mini vacation. Through out the year the entire staff is friendly, and accommodating. I can’t help but return multiple times a year. GREAT STAFF!!! Tony Elias

Still the same great customer service. Great grill & bar, locals are very friendly and have great rates! We keep coming back…

Reasonable fees. Poorly maintained course. Even worse management. Imagine no marshall monitoring players on holiday weekend to keep the pace going. We tried to skip a hole just to move things along and some pony-​tailed duffer got into a verbal altercation with my 68 year old husband and looked like he was going to hit him. We complained to management and though they «noted» our complaint, they could really care less. Lots of other great to excellent courses in Ventura County where management is very good and fellow golfers are polite. Save yourself the trouble and aggravation. My husband and I will never play that disgusting course again. In a word-​low-​class and trashy all the way around.

I’m from Ohio and while we only get to play golf for ½ the year, I’m from north central Ohio and some of the most beautiful courses around are within ½ hour of my house.
I’ve played a few times out here and always felt the courses were overpriced and not nearly as good as those in Ohio (think rain). But when I discovered Mountainview, I was thrilled. I’ve played 4 times since January and every time it has been great. I played last fall and again it was well kept, and the people are so friendly. Clubhouse is a little loose when trying to schedule tee times, but they always get us on so no complaints. It is so inexpensive for Ca and they let us play 9 when we want to. We’ve had a beer afterward almost every time and lunch several times and I really like the low key friendly atmosphere.

So long Saticoy Regional, hello Mountain View. SO affordable for a poor weed whacker like me. Course is made up of predominantly green grass (when there’s decent rainfall), not weeds. Few rough areas of course but well-​worth the $ 22 INCLUDING the cart! Not a bad bar either with good beer on tap to drown the flames of fury ignited on that last four-​putt. I’m definitely a fan.

I usually play Elkins in fillmore. On this particular Sunday they had a tournament so we needed to find another place to play. We heard there was a course in Santa Paula which was only another 10 minutes down the road. I called on Thursday and asked if I could make an early tee time for Sunday. I was told that there was no one there to take my request. I should just show up at sunrise on Sunday… which we did.
First off the bathrooms smell like the inside of a dead racoon. My friend flushed the urinal and literally all three overflowed onto the floor. That was probably the highlight of the day. We eventually made it to the first tee. It was impossible to tell where the fairway was located. Looking off in the direction of where one would assume would be the green was brown dead grass. This is what they call a fairway. It looks like they fired their greens keeper around the turn of the century and decided not to fill the position. My third shot eventually made the green and I was rewarded by putting over a 10 foot wide patch of mud. It appears that no one has ever repaired a ball mark. The green had more indentations than Kim Kardashians backside. After recording a six we were off to number 2. Once again, I had no idea where the fairway was located. There was just an open space with no change from tee box to fairway to rough to next apparent hole. After the theme repeated for nine holes we made it to the club house where we were greeted by smelly restrooms and the memory of dropping 40 dollars on an overrated cow pasture. The back 9 had more slope but was in the same condition. Make sure you are well rested since you may need to push the power cart over the last four holes. To say I will not be back is maybe the biggest understatement. If this is what I had to play I would take up ditch digging as a hobby. As I drove away from this sewer I literally felt violated.

First of all let me say that the signage out front is wrong, It says «Mountain View Golf Course’, when it actually should read „Vacant Land For Sale“. I had never played golf in this dirt before, but played there for my last time today. This place is a total joke.
When we tried to get a tee time the man on the phone said, „I can’t give you a time, because I have no idea when you’re going to get here.“ We were basically told to just show up and our start time would we be after the people that got there right before us. That should have been our first clue that this wasn’t REALLY a golf course. We lined up on the first hole and hit our balls in the direction you would expect the course to go, only to find two greens, side by side, in a dry patch of crab grass. There literally isn’t a fairway. It is mostly dirt that they water from time to time, to see what grows. Seriously, there isn’t anything that golfers would call „lawn“ anywhere. The course isn’t laid out well at all and isn’t properly marked. You have no idea where the next tee box is, because they are all placed right next to each other. We had to ask directions three or four different times. One time I had to ask a zombie girl in a prairie dress, that came walking out of the nearby brush. She actually pointed us in the wrong direction and we ended up in the middle of a paint ball game, on the neighboring property. At least over there we could see the flag.
The positive comments that are posted here should NOT be considered by those people that actually play golf, you know real golf, where there is grass, yardage markers and greens keepers. I knew it was a bad sign when we went to get our golf cart and two hillbillies were fighting over the cart with Dale Earnhardt’s number on it. Did I mention that the entrance road to the course drives you directly through 4 different holes. The parking lot was packed full of monster trucks and the course was littered with short guys in „Affliction“ t-​shirts, yelling back and forth „Nice shot bro“,“Thanks bro».
When we went into the clubhouse I was slightly impressed. As my friend pointed out, they must have remodeled the clubhouse within the last year or so, but haven’t spent a penny on the course. The staff are friendly and helpful, the bar is nice and the cocktails are pretty good. I was half expecting to find a tattoo parlor and vapor cigarette store inside, but there wasn’t. They have done a nice job inside. Now they need to dig deep into that budget and buy some grass seed, fertilizer and pay that water bill so they can have service turned back on.
While this rating might seem a little harsh, our experience was actually much worse than I have described it. This is by far the worst golf course I have ever played on in my life. I know by now you must be thinking, this guy sounds like a total golf snob, with striking good looks. Well, you are wrong, while I am very handsome, I’m a horrible golfer, seriously I’m terrible. I do however find it harder to play on a gravel road, so i’m sure real golfers would want to know the truth about this place. We paid $ 40 to play this rats nest of shrubs and soil. ANY other golf course in the area is better than this place, even courses charging in the $ 20 range. Anyone submitting a favorable review of this course has to be an employee or owner of the company. I would not play here ever again, even if they offered me a lifetime of free golf. My time is worth more than that. This course is perfect for someone like Hank Data and his buddy All.

Played here for the first time this Sunday. It was a gift from my son for my birthday. We played as a twosome, which was really cool since many places won’t do this, especially on a Sunday. There were a number of people playing, but pace was good, we never waited, and never felt rushed. Very laid back. Course was in good shape and the greens are some of the best I’ve played on. Very challenging. Staff was super friendly and so were everyone we talked to on the course that day. It’s a challenging layout with some narrow fairways and plenty of trees. Water comes into play on a few holes. It’s still forgiving enough for newer players though. Beautiful views, no house lined fairways, and a fun course. Will definately be back.

Once again, our group of 20 golfers were treated like kings. Dan, the Director of Golf, is the most accommodating, generous, and friendly head pro you will ever encounter. He gave our group a great deal. We hung around afterwards. He greeted each of us and kept us laughing. The course is great fun and quite a challenge. It’s not real long but don’t let that fool you. The fairways are tight, tree lined. Some of the longest par 4s play back into a prevailing ocean breeze. The saucer shaped greens are tough to putt with plenty of subtle breaks.
The new signature hole is one with a heart shaped green and bunker. It was created by the long time superintendent as a tribute to his wife who passed away from breast cancer. There is a memorial plaque and tree. It’s a beautiful tribute.
You can’t go wrong playing this course. It’s fun, challenging, and friendly. You will want to play it again and again.

My favorite place to play in So Cal.
One word to describe this place, laid back. I discovered them when I called around trying to find a course that would accommodate a special request. No one would until I called Mountain View. The GM said, «no problem» so I drove on out here from the SCV.
I liked the place right away. First off, it was about 20 degrees cooler than the 100 degree+ Santa Clarita Valley. The clubhouse had just been refurbished and was nice and welcoming. The GM was warm and inviting when I arrived, like I was the only golfer. I had my two kids with me, one did not play and the other did. Children playing were free as was my other child that was watching. My regular course had charged me full price for my one son and a ‘spectator fee’ for the other one. Here, the whopping total for two of us to play golf with super twilight rate on a weekday was $ 22, including cart rental. Serious? It would have cost us the same to play mini golf back home.
The course itself is actually well kept up and nicer than the public courses I have played. Their greens are exceptional for a public course. All sand traps had been freshly raked.
The laid back spirit carries on through the course, the other golfers were equally nice. There are a couple holes where it’s easy to get mixed up on which green belongs to which hole, so be careful. Other golfers were quick to help and laugh about the mixup.
The grill they have is awesome. Legend has it that they stole the fry cook away from the Fillmore golf course and he was the one that made the legendary burgers there. So now, these burgers are available at Mountain View. The burgers are good and represent about the best one can do on a small grill. Once, the GM made them for us. He told me he did not like how they came out so he did not charge us. Really, they tasted great to us.
One time I came here to golf and there was leftover food from a banquet. They were quick to hand us a full tri tip meal when we walked in the door, we never asked for this and they would not let us pay for it. The bar is equally impressive and they have premium beer on tap, I think it was Fat Tire and some others.
So, you get the great ocean air blowing throughout the course. Just north of the course there is a private airport and sometimes there are old bi-​planes taking off and landing, really neat. Topping this all off, the course is sandwiched in between two mountain ranges. Spectacular. Best of all, it’s a 30 minute drive from Santa Clarita.
Gosh, I wish I had found this place years ago.

Great place to hang and get a quick round in

My man and I went to this lovely course on a whim. We were staying in Ventura and I wanted an affordable, yet quality course for his first 18 holes of golf. I’m a rather novice golfer myself, but having played in Southern Orange County, Southern Utah, Dominican Republic, and Hawaii, I have seen several good courses. Usually you pay for what you get. But this course gave us so much more.
The tees were clean and well marked. The greens were fast, unpredictable, and challenging. The fairways were wide enough for a consistent slicer to find her way. And the surrounding area foliage was beautiful and not so thick that you lose your balls in the rough.
A good course for all sorts of golfers. I am definately a fan!
