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.

Nice folks

The course has plenty of fun holes. The course is a bit unique in its layout. Definitely forgiving for the novice and fun for the bogie golfer. My only complaint was the course management seemed a bit lax. The golf carts were stacked up in front of the walking paths, staff drive all over the walkways right in front of patrons, we arrived at lunch time and the bar was not even open for business. It was obvious that the rough had become overgrown and recently was wacked down. The course is a fun municipal course perfect for locals to work out their game on a tight budget. I would not plan to bring a client here, but would have no hesitations to bring a friend.

Nice little track

My wife got us a tee time for Father's Day. We were teamed up with another couple and had a very nice round. The course was in great condition. My wife loved it because is was less than 5,000 yds total from red tees...only one hole over 400yds.

I used to like this course.. Until May 3rd 2015

I understand that all courses in the DFW area are going to have their struggles with all of the rain we have had however the management of the course has allowed it to go to garbage! Is this coat a goat pasture? YES! With all of the rain we have had there is no excuses for not having green grass. I mean seriously that’s one problem no course in DFW should have. They just punched the greens on the same day with no warning or notice. I won’t play here again and even though it’s cheap it’s worth the $5-30 more to play anywhere else in DFW. It’s disgraceful to the game of golf

OOPS!

Should have called the course for conditions before booking. The had just aerated and sanded the greens.
So we put in the automatic two putt rule and had a good time. This course is very enjoyable with tees to challenge multiple skill levels. Always great staff and friendly people.

Another Great Time at Country View

I really enjoy playing this course, because it has some very challenging and fun holes: 2, 7, 10, 11, 12, 15, and 17. Many of these holes have very elevated greens which are pretty unique in this area and which rarely concede an easy up and down. Course is in nice condition coming out of winter dormancy. Fun time!

Great Fun but...

We played this course based upon a Golf Magazine Top 10 rating from a year or so ago. For the money, it was an excellent round of golf though we seemed to be chasing the lawnmower around the course...It was interesting that there was not a single sand trap on the course but plenty of grass bunkers, I guess sand is expensive these days. Some greens had recovered from the recent aeration better than others but I would love to call this course home.

Great track but needs TLC

Almost every hole had an interesting twist and it could be a great course. Problem is that it is obvious they are not putting money into the course which meant no hole/yardage signs, poorly mowed and maintained, and basically without a GPS, you'd be lost on the course. And to top it all off, no score cards!

Nice Little Gem

First time playing this course and I was pleasantly surprised. The course was in good condition. There were a couple of greens that had been aerated but for the most part the greens were fine. Course is kind of short for big hitters and there is trouble that can come into play that you can't see until you get there, i.e. water! Will definitely be back. It was a nice little gem.

Challenging

Unique course with extremely elevated greens make this course different. Greens were undulating and fast but fair. Not a long course but shots into the greens must be precise or the ball wont stay on.

Beginner

This course is great for the price. If you are looking to play an inexpensive course and work on your game this is definitely the course for you. The course is wide open and very forgiving so beginners can come out and actually work on the game without losing balls and just having to drop every time.
