Ridgeview Ranch Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

Good deal/Needs work
Played a late afternoon round, and I’ve always enjoyed this course. Unfortunately some of the greens were eaten up which made for some awkward putts.

Ridgeview Ranch 8/5/23
This course needs major work. All of the greens have bare spots and are in need of being rolled to eliminate the many bumps they have. Very, very few of the putts seem to roll smoothly. These are the worst greens in the north Dallas suburbs. The fairways are in need of water and are baked out in many spots. The rough is all burned out and in many places there is just dirt instead of any kind of vegatation. It is a rip-off for them to charge as much as they do when ownership/management don't care about the condition of the course. I will not be back tthere again unless things change.
We appreciate your feedback and apologize for any negative experience you had with our course. We take your concerns seriously and will address the issues with the greens, fairways, and rough to ensure a better golfing experience in the future. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
Horrible
This was the worst course I've played since moving here from Michigan. This has to be the worst course in North Dallas. I will never play this course again unless it gets a total overhaul. No water on the course at all (100-degree days) greens are unbelievable. The fairways have dirt patches everywhere. I really can't believe they are in business and they have the nerves to charge $72
We apologize for your negative experience and appreciate your feedback. We strive to provide the best course conditions and will take your comments into consideration to improve in the future. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Choose a different course!
It’s 100 degrees this time of year. There is NO water available anywhere on the course and no cart girl! NO GPS in the carts. Greens were okay, but should be much better this time of year! Golf cart sputtered and had trouble going up hills. Will not be going back until weather gets cooler

Great morning of golf
Surprised in the middle of summer the course looks as good as it does. The first few greens had some issues but overall not bad. Tee boxes needed more water, they were so compressed we could barely get a tee in the ground! Good course for your average golfer.
The carts here suck though! Small and gas powered. Took the first one back to the clubhouse because it almost didn’t make it up the small hill to the first tee box!
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize if you had any negative experiences during your visit, and we appreciate your feedback regarding the condition of the course and the carts. We will take your comments into consideration as we continue to improve our facilities.
Ridgeview needs HELP
I hope the next owners know how to maintain a golf course. CBIGG obviously is only in the golf business to squeeze the very last cent of profits from their golf courses.

Gorgeous after the rain
After the storm passed, my son and I were paired up. I love this course for the rolling hills and length of course. Par 3's are gorgeous. Anytime on a course with loved ones is greatness. Overall, quite the enjoyable time. Mud is never fun but course itself held up well.

No drinking water
We were a foursome, start time 11:30, today, July 5th.
Temp at start 100 degrees.
We all teed off played the fist four holes and begun to look for some cool drinking water, none could be found, none was set out on the course.
After nine holes I went in to complain to the resident Pro. He said that it was company policy to not provide public drinking water, I told him that the Covid policies have expired.
We found no drinking water, no ball washers, there were plenty of trash cans available. The course had tree limbs down from a storm of two months ago. It appeared to us that course maitainance has been severely put on the back burner.
We suggest you find a different course to play, one that cares about we Texas golfers..

Greens are coming back!
If you have played this before, you know they had challenges with Poana but the staff have done a great job of getting the greens in pretty goof shape. Some bare spots in the fairway that they should rope off as they water but can't complain too much . Dallis grass shoots up this year but what are you going to do? Staff is always nice and courteous.
