Course Highlights
Elevated greens and water hazards create a genuinely challenging layout that rewards precise approach shots on standout holes like the 17th. Friendly staff, strong value, and a consistently smooth pace of play make this course easy to recommend.

Rating 70.5

Ron Garl came to Lancaster, Texas in 1989 to build Country View G.C., a truly unique course. No. 7 is the most difficult hole -- a long dogleg right with water in play off the tee and in the fairway. Also, get ready for no. 15, a unique par 3 that features a green completely surrounded by huge trees. Most of Country View's tee boxes are elevated and there is water in on over half of the holes.

There Are Some Tough Holes

While I rated Country View as moderate in difficulty, there are a few difficult holes - #2 for example. Better be VERY ACCURATE with first shot off the tee, or you get to pitch back into fairway to line up shot through the slot in the trees. #8 can be tough if you don't hit first shot far enough to make the 90* turn.

On the back, 12 is narrow. 17 is a very difficult shot into the elevated green with a long iron - not so bad if you lay up and come in with a 9 or PW.

Lot's of fun to be had out here.

Prepare lots of beat-up balls and GPS.

Need to practice iron and wedge shots because of very small greens with altitude and much of water hazards. I would like to recommend this course only to above intermediate level. No GPS on golf carts.

South Dallas Gem

First time playing Country View and had just a great time. I have played all over DFW, and Country View is one of the best courses I have played for the money. Staff was polite and helpful, pace of play was excellent, the layout was challenging, and the greens were perfect. Worth the drive for sure. So relaxing as the course winds through the forest-Not a house in site.

Perfect for practice

Not my first time reviewing this course because I play here regularly. Nothing has really changed. I promised to include pictures of carts on the tee box. Will do greens next time. Literally. Happens all day - every day on my observation. . Only the occasional marshal.

Excellent Course Elevated Greens

This is our go to course in this area. We as a family love playing County View. Most tee boxes and greens are elevated. Fairways are pretty wide open. At the same time you can find yourself in trouble alot if you don't watch out.

Staff has always been kind and courteous. I lost a wingman(left it on cart) and the button there and I called the next morning the clubhouse(don't know his name )attendant and cart attendant found the speaker and a patron found the button on the course and turned it in. I immediately bought a gift card and gave it to the guy first turned it in.

Great course

For the intermediate player this course will test your knowledge and skills, from Up and downs, to a wide verity of left to right Plato’s on green. The fair ways are as normal as it gets but with a difficult hole 17 on an Island green elevated 20 ft high. Cart service was great, and club house was put together. The only down side at the time I played was, there was no sand In the bunkers which would have been really nice to practice Tahiti out the bunkers. Over all amazing course will definitely return.
