Lakeview Golf Resort and Spa

The Resort and Its Setting

Lakeview Golf Resort and Spa is an independent timeshare property in Morgantown, West Virginia, built around the region's two defining features: water and golf. The resort sits in the rolling hills of North-Central Appalachia, a landscape that shifts from spring wildflowers to full autumn colour by October. As an independent property, Lakeview is run outside the big hotel-branded timeshare chains, but its RCI affiliation means owners aren't limited to just this one address — more on that below.

Specific unit layouts, in-room features and on-site facilities aren't something we can list here with certainty, so anyone weighing up a purchase, sale or booking should confirm current amenities directly with the resort before committing.

Morgantown and the Surrounding Area

Morgantown is a working college town, home to West Virginia University, and that gives the area a lived-in, year-round energy rather than a purely seasonal tourist feel. Downtown Morgantown is walkable, with local shops, breweries and restaurants reflecting the area's Appalachian roots, while a car is useful for reaching the wider region.

Outdoors, the Monongahela River runs through town and is popular for kayaking, fishing, and riverside walking and biking trails. A short drive away, Coopers Rock State Forest offers hiking trails and some of the best overlooks in the state, busy with hikers and leaf-peepers especially in autumn. Sports fans will know Mountaineer Field, home to WVU football, which can draw crowds and put pressure on local accommodation on game weekends — worth factoring in if you're renting out a week around the college football calendar.

Selling or Renting Out a Week Here

If you own a week at Lakeview Golf Resort and Spa and are thinking of selling or renting it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as a direct owner-to-owner marketplace: you set your own asking price, list the week yourself, and buyers or renters contact you through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of genuine buyers.

Because Lakeview is an independent resort, resale isn't processed through a large branded timeshare company with a published fee schedule. Instead, transfers typically go through the resort's own owners' association or management office. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, both sides should check directly with the resort: the transfer fee for changing the name on the deed or contract, the current annual maintenance fee, and whether the resort or association holds any right of first refusal on a resale. These details vary by property and aren't published figures we can quote here, so get them in writing before finalising a sale.

A resale buyer typically takes on the usage rights and annual fee obligations tied to the week itself, but reservation history, resort credits or loyalty perks (if any exist here) don't automatically carry over — confirm exactly what is and isn't included before the sale completes.

What Renters Typically Look For

Renters researching Morgantown are usually drawn by one of three things: a WVU football weekend, a golf trip, or a fall foliage getaway with Coopers Rock on the itinerary. Being upfront in your listing about proximity to campus, golf access and the general week-to-week feel of the resort will help renters understand what they're booking, especially given that detailed amenity information isn't widely published online.

Practical Notes for Owners and Buyers

Because Lakeview Golf Resort and Spa is RCI-affiliated, owners exchanging their week should confirm their membership status and available exchange options with RCI before travelling. Morgantown's weather shifts noticeably with the seasons, so pack for the time of year you're visiting, and keep an eye on the WVU sporting calendar if you're booking — or renting out — a week during the academic year.
