About
Ridgeview Ranch is a Jeff Brauer design that opened in 1997. It’s friendly to the average golfer because there are rarely forced carries of water or sand to reach the large greens, making short approaches good candidates for easy ups and downs.
The design rolls through hills and trees, incorporating two creeks that come into play. The fairways are average-sized and flat, although there are a few surprising elevation changes for this flat part of north Texas. The course rolls through a housing addition and some of the holes are very tight.
Nos. 7 and 11 stand out in particular. The 7th goes 161 yards over White Rock Creek to a sloping green. No. 11 is tough because is plays well over 400 yards uphill into the prevailing wind.
Other notes: Carts are mandatory on weekends before 2 p.m. The cemetery next to the No. 3 green has graves dating back to 1800 and a historical marker to commemorate the settlers commissioned by Stephen F. Austin.
Getting there : From Dallas, travel north on the Tollway and exit Spring Creek. Turn right and drive 5 miles to Independence. Turn left and drive north to Ridge View Dr., then take a right and the course is on the left.

10th fairway. Par 5. Nice hole. Photo submitted by Sam Sherstad on 06/07/2016
Bad shape
The overall course is in need of major repair. Bare spots everywhere. I might need to to a doctor to fix my back because riding in a cart was so rough. The greens were in good to great shape.
Great Course…but needs a Marshall!
One of my favorites to play - but definitely needs a Marshall! The course was held up by (1) Foursome that (4) groups behind them backed up.
Other than that greens were in great shape.
Great venue in needs more Greens upkeep
This course is always a good option in the area. However, the greens in 4 holes need attention. Texas extreme weather can severely impact the greens and that seems to be the case in some of the holes.
Overall, Ridgeview is a good option for a fun round of golf in north Texas.
Better Than Last Time
Off-season so all grass areas were dormant including the greens which were also recently sanded and rough. No idea what was up with the green on 15 which normally is the most difficult green I have ever played due to grade changes but it almost seemed like they are intentionally cutting the lower level longer to reduce the run-out now. Who knows. Last time I played the bunkers were hardpan but are now a light, powdery sand. Edges need work still but very very nice. Great pace but cart was an absolute dog. The place is shaping up slowly so I will be back. The place could be a gem if everything gets fixed up right

Good golf
Love the layout of this course and it’s currently in pretty good shape. However it would be great if they had ball washers and water stations on the course. I don’t understand why they don’t. Nevertheless, I will keep playing here.

Ridgeview Ranch
The only the greens were good. Parts of the fairway had a lot of hard pan dirt spots
They could charge $50 a round and it would not be worth

Always an enjoyable experience
This is the second time I've played here and I've thoroughly enjoyed it both times. It starts with a friendly and helpful staff. The course amenities are well maintained and the course itself offers an adequate challenge.
