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.

Extremely challenging course.
I'm not a good golfer, but this course didn't help. Just about every green is on a plateau with steep hills on all sides, usually leading to water. It's clearly an older course, but still fun, just hard.
Nice and challenging course.
A nice course with an interesting layout. Not intimidatingly narrow, but you'll have to put in some thought right from the tee to have the angles for the green. The elevated green add to the challenge.
Good shape
Greens roll nicely. I sunk some long putts from the fringe. The teeboxes are in great shape for this time of year. Still some hardpan and the fairways play hot. Watch the slope, but enjoy the green once you're there.
Good times
Played many round here. Always a good time as long as your irons are on. Requires precession iron shots to elevated greens. Poor shots will test your short game. Greag layout will kepp bringing you back.
Thumbs up
Found this course on GolfNow for a very low price so I was expecting the worst but came to find out it was very nice especially for the price. I definitely recommend.
First time playing the course
Not use to playing on greens that were e l e v ated. Very challenging..greens where small
Bad experience
Over priced and bad management. Had a 45 min delay that they did not post online or with golf now. When I showed up an hour early for my tee time to be respectful of their check in process. They told me there was a 45 min delay. So I asked if I could have a small bucked of balls for the delay and they just said nope can’t do that. I would have just left but I had already Ubered a $20 ride there. So as the time went on they never called my name with the group I was to join. Well that group never showed so they just forgot me. Duh. I’m the guy that is now almost $100 in on my experience there. Stupid management fire them all
GREAT SHAPE!
I'm 48 and I've played off and on here since my early 20s. There was a period where the course wasn't in great shape. That's no longer the case. The greens were outstanding. The fairways were great. The only reason I give 4 stars is because there are still a few spots where the ground very hard, but that's why I should stay in the fairway. 🤣🤣🤣 It was a windy day, but I chose Country View because the tree lines diminish a lot of the impact from the wind. I will be back, hopefully more frequently.
Country View Lancaster, TX
this course is quite challenging. All the Tee Boxes and Green are elevated. This made chipping onto the Green a bit difficult, if you were short the ball was rolling downhill.
The Greens were is very good condition. The fairways were in fairly good condition, and you needed an extra club length, if you were in the rough because it was rather thick.
All in all, we enjoyed playing it, b/c it was new to me. It was a little cold and windy to start, but weather got a little better as the day progressed.
Hidden Gem A very fun course to play
Very fun course to play, but you need to bring you A game!
Fun, Interesting Layout
For a city run muni, Country View a very good layout. First hole is a nice easy par 4 - then things get tougher.
Quite a few elevated greens along with a little water, and a creek on #7 make for a challenging 9.
Elevated greens on 10 - 11 mean hitting the ball high in the air and land softly. #12 presents an interesting decision with the tree between the tee and green.
15 takes a very accurate shot into the green.
#17 takes a high tee shot over the trees to reach the middle of the fairway, and accuate shot into the green to avoid the water.
A wide variety of golf holes that will use every club in the bag.
