Mountain View Golf Course


About this course
Mountain View Golf Course sits in West Jordan, a suburban city in the Salt Lake Valley southwest of Salt Lake City. Designed by William Howard Neff and opened in the mid-twentieth century, the course occupies relatively flat terrain characteristic of the valley floor, with views toward the Wasatch Range to the east and the Oquirrh Mountains to the west that give the facility its name. The layout reflects the straightforward, accessible design principles common to municipal and daily-fee courses of its era, emphasizing playability for a broad range of golfers. The course serves as a public facility in Utah's Salt Lake County golf network, providing year-round play when weather permits in the region's semi-arid climate. The routing works within the constraints of its suburban setting, with mature trees lining many fairways and water features coming into play on several holes. Greens and fairways are maintained to standards typical of high-traffic public courses in the Intermountain West. Mountain View functions primarily as a neighborhood course for West Jordan and surrounding communities, offering an affordable option in a metropolitan area with limited public golf inventory relative to demand. The facility includes a driving range and practice areas, and the clubhouse provides basic amenities for daily-fee play. The course appeals to local golfers seeking convenient access and straightforward design rather than championship length or severe hazards.

Getting there
Mountain View Golf Course sits in the foothills south of Salt Lake City, most easily reached via Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC), approximately forty minutes north by car through the urban sprawl before the landscape opens into the Wasatch Front valleys. The drive south from the airport traces I-15 before peeling away onto local roads that climb gently into West Jordan's residential and recreational terrain, where the Oquirrh Mountains rise dramatically to the east. Private aviation options exist at nearby facilities, though SLC remains the primary gateway for most visitors. The final miles unfold through the quiet suburban foothills, where the course emerges as a verdant oasis against the high-desert backdrop - a striking contrast that defines the Utah golf experience.
