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.

Pretty good, but

Had some issues with rain damage on a few holes, one fairway was closed and that par 4 was 123 yards with a quarter mile drive to get to it. It looked like my second eagle on the card but…Greens were very good for winter, and repairs were under way. Best cheeseburger I’ve had at a golf course.

I grew up playing this course and have always liked playing it but it needs some work. Hopefully over the spring they will get it back in shape.

Golf Now stay away

Golf "manager" treats you like dirt because you are buying through golf now. Don't go unless the city fires him.

Sad it too see it in this condition

This course will never be confused with a 5 star establishment but it was sad to see it in this condition. I’ve been playing here on and off for almost 20 years and this was the worst I’ve seen it. The tee boxes were hacked up, hadn’t been mowed in weeks, and it appeared the markers hadn’t been moved.

The fairways were ok, but almost anywhere off the fairway looked like ground under repair.

The greens were about what expected, not award winning but acceptable.

To charge $60 to play this course in this condition is sad. This course has so much potential, with a fun layout, elevated greens, and plenty of risk/reward opportunities. The City of Lancaster could be proud to have this course but at this point it’s a little embarrassing to let it get to this place.

Greens are the real value

The crowd was light for a Friday morning so the pace of play was great, but they have over seeded the tee boxes and probably hadn’t mowed them once and there wasn’t much rough to speak of, yet the greens are in excellent shape and rolling truer than they may ever have in the past with good speed. So overall, from tee to green the course condition is underwhelming but the greens are so good that for the price it would be difficult to beat the value.
