Golf is a wonderful sport that takes a lot of skill, a delicate touch, and a touch of luck. The Treasure Valley offers many exceptional golf courses for its residents to enjoy.
One perk of having a growing community like the Treasure Valley cities is that many of the golf courses are close to or in residential areas. This means that some lucky residents are able to purchase golf course-facing properties.
There are so many golf courses in the Treasure Valley that they won’t fit into one short blog. This entry will focus on the course in the very popular cities of Eagle and Meridian.
Lakeview Golf Club is nestled in the area between Ten Mile Road and Black Cat Road in Meridian. The course features more than 6,500 yards of playable area and has long, undulating fairways holes lined with mature trees.
