About the course
Coastal parkland golf framed by lakes, wind and abundant birdlife
Lakes View Golf Course is a daily-fee parkland course at Cunninghame in Victoria, Australia. Set in coastal surrounds, the layout brings water, wind, sand and natural vegetation into play, and the area is home to over 150 bird species including eagles, kites and other raptors, honeyeaters and parrots. The course has been ranked among the top 100 golf courses in Australia by Golf Australia Magazine. Facilities include a driving range, pro shop, restaurant/dining, and cart and club hire.
Players consistently describe this as a beautiful coastal-style course wrapped in lakes and natural scenery, with a peaceful setting that many find genuinely memorable. Reviewers note an enjoyable, playable layout that suits all levels while still offering enough challenge to stay interesting, and the front and back nines are often said to have their own distinct character. Conditioning earns regular praise, with comments about well-kept greens and a course frequently in excellent shape. The clubhouse and staff are repeatedly described as warm, friendly and welcoming. One recurring word of advice from visitors: pack extra balls for the days the wind is up, as it can be a real test alongside the water and vegetation.
