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.

Country View Golf Course

Fairways and greens are well-maintained. Overall, it was good. We joined the back nine after lunch, and the guys behind us called a marshal and complained. That’s nonsense.

An okay course - good greens, bad tee blocks and some areas need attention.

The course was okay - one hole taken out, tee blocks in bad shape and need levelling. Greens in good condition. Not a difficult course and there was virtually no-one there so pace of play wasn't a problem - finished in 3.5 hours. Guy in the Pro Shop needs to smile :-)

Good Value, Challenging Course, Unique Layout

I enjoyed playing this course. The layout is actually pretty unique. You do not get to use your driver much since the course is on the shorter side, and even the longer holes usually have a creek or a dogleg that makes it tough to hit driver.

The greens were in great shape. Most holes are fairly open and seem to favor right handed golfers. I did notice there were a lot of spots around the greens and tee boxes that could use some weed control. It made finding your ball a little annoying sometimes, but it was not a big deal.

Every green is elevated, so you really have to pay attention to your short game. Bump and run shots do not really work here. You need to get the ball in the air with some spin, or it will just roll off the back and down the hill.

I do not remember seeing any sand traps anywhere on the course.

Dirty carts no score card.

Great course ... friendly pro shop. Greens best shape ever, course ( except hole 7) is in great shape. Well done and you can see other improvements coming along. But how hard is it to clean a cart ? Thought I was playing Riverside for a moment. Sometimes you need to do more than just spray the cart and restock with a score card and pencil..

Excellent Value - Fun Course to Play

Was in the area for the weekend, had time for a round with short notice and chose this based on the star rating and price. Glad I did.

Course was fun and somewhat challenging. The elevated greens meant you had little room for mistakes on approach (Hole 17 is a treat). Tee's were in good shape and the fairways were great condition. The greens were in decent shape. There are no bunkers, which is a shame, but understandable.

Even on a Sunday afternoon behind a slow threesome, I still had a sub-4 hour round.

Would definitely go back and play this again if I'm in the area.

Good condition

A little bit of slow play due to school teams playing. Hole 7 is closed and you have to back track and cut over. Creeks looked polluted and reeked of sewage.

Enjoyed the course other than the above items.
