Most "views" have a down side. The water views dry up, get scummy and smell during the dry season. Preserves are very often a dead zone where massive power lines are run. Golf course views can sometimes be next to golf cart paths and you might have a lot of traffic. There is always something. Just have to decide what's most important. We bought our second house backing to a wall and have been very happy with the location and privacy. Best of luck.
