 #6 Hole Lakeview National Golf Course - Two Harbors, Minnesota |
Golf Course Rating
Located at the northeastern edge of Two Harbors, Minnesota, Lakeview National is a challenging golf course with, as the name suggests, a number of views of Lake Superior. Originally designed as a 9 hole course, the course was renovated in 1996-1997 with all new tees and the expansion to 18 holes.
The course is directly across Highway 61 from the Burlington Bay Campground and only a few blocks from the town's restaurant and tourist center.
We played the course in the second week of June 2009. We found the course reasonably challenging (slope rating 130) and we gave it a higher than average Lost Ball Index. Balls tended to roll more easily from the fairway into the rough and into the woods. The layout of a number of holes tended to more greatly penalize a slice than the Duluth and Superior courses. Adding to the challenge was the fact that their fairways were not in good condition (I presume they have yet to recover from the very severe drought the region experienced in 2008). As the area is experiencing adequate rain in June, I'd expect the fairway condition to improve over the summer. The greens were in good condition, in fact quite lush and still a bit moist from recent rains.
Lakeview National is a scenic course with some challenge and it is a good golfing value. In June of 2009, the midweek price of 18 holes of golf, including cart, was $30 - a price you'd find hard to beat at any other course with views of Lake Superior. The cart was an electric cart , a bit of a bonus. We had lunch at the club house grill and found the chicken breast sandwiches excellently prepared and served on a quality bun. The club house also has an outdoor deck with a good view of the course. The Pro Shop was well stocked and we received good service from the staff. Lakeview has a driving range, located somewhat distant from the clubhouse, but adjacent to the #1 hole. If you are looking for a modest priced round of golf, some golfing challenge, and decent course amenities, Lakeview National in Two Harbors, Minnesota should be at the top of your list.
