Valley View at Valley View Golf Course

Valley View Golf Course sits in Layton, a city along the Wasatch Front in northern Utah, roughly midway between Salt Lake City and Ogden. The course occupies terrain characteristic of the region, where the valley floor meets the foothills of the Wasatch Range. Designed by William Hull, the layout reflects the practical municipal golf architecture common to Utah's growing suburban communities in the mid-to-late twentieth century. The routing takes advantage of the natural grade and open spaces available in this part of Davis County, with views extending toward the mountains to the east and across the valley to the west.

The course serves as an accessible public facility for residents of Layton and the surrounding Wasatch Front corridor. Its design emphasizes playability for a broad range of golfers while incorporating the native topography and vegetation of the high-desert valley environment. Water features and mature trees frame several holes, and elevation changes add variety to the shot-making demands. The layout provides a straightforward test of golf without excessive length or severe hazards, consistent with the municipal model that prioritizes steady play and community access.

Valley View operates within the network of public courses that support golf in northern Utah, a region where the sport benefits from a long playing season and a strong recreational culture. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that serve both daily-fee players and local leagues, contributing to the area's golf infrastructure alongside other municipal and semi-private options along the Wasatch Front.
