Rating 74.1

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.

Lots of trees

If your shanking on your driver or have trouble getting under it with your irons bring lots of balls

Even straight shots run off. Youll have a great round though.

Good Course

I like this course. The only negatives are that the carts are slow and the staff needs to get the greens in better condition. Too many weeds.

course conditions / ammenities

2nd time playing - 1st time was mid-summer last year. There are no water coolers so, be sure you bring your own water for 18 holes. The food in the pro shop was closed this last visit and no cart person driving around. Conditions of course were not as good as anticipated, driving range balls in the middle of the 9th fairway. Not sure if I'll be back, for the value of the money it was good just to get out. The course layout is the only thing that was good.

Great for the price/location/pace of play

Women's tee boxes set them up to be in the same area as the men playing from the white tees, which makes it a lot of fun to play! Love the layout! Good value for the money! Pin placements need to be moved. Many holes are so beat up that it effects the roll of the ball. Ground may be too hard to punch new holes but it really needs to be done. Winter conditions are tough but surely the holes can be more clean. Otherwise great place to play!

Disappointing conditions

Nice layout, but conditions were disappointing. Bumpy greens, so many bare spots throughout the course. Tee boxes lacked grass.

Love the course but greens are in bad shape.

I play this course a lot but putting is a real game of chance with all the little weeds on them.

Fun Course

Beautiful day for golf. Greens were hit or miss. Played winter rules as the ground was pretty hard in many places, but hey, its February. Always like the layout here. There is a nice blend of easy, medium, and hard holes. Definitely a course to put in the local rotation.
