What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole? North Course - Hole # 8 Par 3 - 190 yds from the back tees is an intimidating tee shot. All carry over water that borders the right side of the green with OB left and long. If you don't want to take a penalty shot, you must hit the green.
What Is Your Favorite Hole? Any Tips to Play It? South Course - Hole # 18 Par 4 - 410 yards from the back tees. The only level part of this hole is the tee box! Narrow fairway that slopes left to right with drainage ditch and OB left combined with a prevailing right to left wind makes this one of the toughest tee shots at Lakeview Hills. Second shot is uphill to a small undulating green that takes precision to hit. Careful if you hit the second shot long as your chip coming back may roll all the way back down the hill.
