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.

Place to work on your game

Weather was perfect and minor traffic for the day. I am trying to understand the comment on 10/17/2021 regarding calling the police on a patron. CV where is your response? For another that was allegedly harassed by a marshal, I seldom see a marshal - maybe a starter and one on-course person once in a blue moon. I do like to get my work/practice in here because it is not crowded during the week. This is a target golf course with elevated crown green and plenty of undulation to get your attention. The grass is dormant and the greens are fast. Will also agree with another review regarding the are around the holes. Patron need to pick up their feed when on the green as there was an abundance of scuff marks around the holes. Also golf carts are driven on the first cut off the green as patrons are too lazy to walk up to the elevated greens and some tee boxes and I am not talking about the handicapped! There are plenty of rope barriers but not nearly enough to deter these patrons. Again no marshals. My next review I will load images.

Ball eating design

Despite not having a single sand trap this is a tough course.. it’s design requires good shot control. There’s enough water, thick woods, narrow chutes, and tight landing areas for even < bogey golfers to lose a few balls. With that said I love it and have played my last 5 rounds there.

Decent track

I have played this course many times, although it had been many years since I last teed one up there. The layout is still unique and does make you plan and choose your level of chance. It isn't a long course but all the elevated greens can make you pay for missed approaches. Greens were in good condition but people need to learn how to walk as so many of the greens were really bumpy within a 10 ft radius around the hole as people drag their feet. No GPS on the carts so make sure you have a rangefinder or GPS of your own.

Marshall's Harassing Players

Marshalls are harassing. We weren't being slow, skipped a few holes to please the Marshall's and they still harass. Maybe he just didn't like us but I'm definitely never returning.

Stay away from this course

I have played golf all of my life and have NEVER been treated so poorly. Against CDC guidelines and city policy, the course "manager" tried to pair another player to share a cart with our threesome. I had an 80 year old man with me that did NOT feel comfortable with that decision. The course REFUSED to compromise. I decided to get two carts and ignore this shabby treatment only because I booked with golf now. The manager chased our group down and called the police! He also made me sign an order to not go on the course for a year! All because this "manger" thinks golf now people do not have a right to have two carts for three people even if it could be dangerous for their patrons. I called golf now and they said it is NOT their policy to force people into two carts!! Do not go to this course unless the city decides to change the management. Besides the course isn't in great shape to boot.

CountryView is a great course! A lot of greens are set up on hills so some holes can be a bit challenging but it’s a good time nonetheless! Staff is super nice and helpful! Definitely recommend!
