Country View Golf Club
About
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.

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.
We're glad you enjoyed the round! Please come back again and see us!
A good value
Very reasonably priced round. Only complaint would ve a few of the greens were in very bad shape.
Thanks for the feedback! We experienced some bad rain and did a lot of maintenance, the course is in much better shape now!
Country View
First started playing this course about 6 yrs ago, every time I've gone the experience, conditions, and all else has been better than the last. Will be back very soon and recommend it to others!
Love to hear it and thanks for being a loyal customer for the past 6 years!
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!
We're so glad you enjoyed the challenging holes and had a great time! Hope to see you again soon!
Good course slow play.
Nice course for the money. Just wish they would space players out better. Lots of elevated greens and water. But the course is playable.
Thank you for the feedback! We hope you come back again soon!
Outstanding Greens
Because of the weather the course fairways where soggy, but the greens where great of course. Great for the price.
Greens will dry up soon and we hope to see you again!
Greens were elevated and FAST!
greens were in great shape but pin locations were set where you had no prayer to stop the ball........but course was in good shape and we were able to play under 4 hours .....awesome day
Nice! Glad you found the course enjoyable and fast, come back when it's warmer and it'll be even better!
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.
Good Value
Nice course with friendly staff. I would give it a 7.5 out of 10.
great course
Will play again friendly people nice course yeahhhhh
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.
Best greens
Best greens on this side of town. And for the money some of the best in the area. Highly recommend this course especially for someone working on their approach game
Ok Course
Ok, not for the money though. Rough shape, elevated greens with big drop offs.
Excellent shot maker course
This course has an interesting layout. It is narrow in the common landing area, and the driver is not used very often on tee off. I had a great time, played from the white tees, and shot a decent score for me. I will be back.
Countryview Golf Course
Great course, a lot better when you're only playing for $8 thanks to GolfNow! The course was one of the hardest I've played, every single green on the course is elevated by about 6-10 feet, they're also surrounded by woods or water so if you miss your shot at all you're in the water. Greens are hard to read, not because of condition of the grass, but because of the hilly greens. Overall it was pretty fun, I can't complain too much since I shot my best round ever.
Fun and challenging course
Have only played this course during the off season. Hopefully course is as awesome as it could be during prime time. A couple of fun risk reward holes.
We're so sorry to hear about your experience at the course! Please email me directly to discuss this more, natalieteetimes@gmail.com
