Mountain View Golf Course ☆ Follow

Located in Đồng Mô, Xã Đoài Phương, Hà Nội, the Mountain View course is an 18-hole, par-72 layout designed by the Australian firm Pacific Coast Designs and completed in 2004. The course spans 6,978 yards from the back tees and is set within a landscape defined by surrounding mountain ranges and the cultural village of Vietnam. The fairways are maintained with Novotec grass imported from Australia, a variety selected for its resilience against the local climate. The routing presents a mix of dogleg holes and straightaways that demand precision off the tee. The par-4 first hole features a left-side bunker and a water hazard positioned 40 yards from the green, while the par-4 ninth hole is guarded by a wide right fairway bunker and a water hazard running along the left side. The par-3 fourth hole offers a 210-yard carry over water to a green surrounded by sand traps, providing a significant early test for golfers. Water hazards and deep bunkers are recurring features throughout the round. The par-3 13th hole requires a shot over water to a green protected by sand, while the par-4 18th hole finishes with a dogleg left where the second shot must carry a small pond to a green fronted by bunkers on both sides. The course also features several par-5s, including the 12th and 15th, which offer scoring opportunities for long hitters but are constrained by fairway bunkers and tree lines. The design incorporates significant elevation changes and sloping greens that challenge approach shots. The par-3 6th hole is described as a scenic layout with water on the left and flower gardens on the right, while the par-4 8th hole requires a shot over water to a green that slopes from back-right to front-left. The 17th hole, a short par-3, features a narrow fairway and deep bunkers in front of a green that slopes from back to front.
