Lake Arlington Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Owned by the city of Arlington, this course has been around since 1963–it’s located on the north edge of Lake Arlington and surrounded by native trees and wildflowers. Ralph Plummer designed this easy course, incorporating little water and no bunkers.
The first hole is one of the most difficult, playing over 400 yards into a dogleg-left fairway dominated by a huge pecan tree. Holes 13 and 14 play near the lake–the 13th goes 389 yards uphill and doglegs right, and the 14th measures 240 yards downhill to a green protected by water on the left side. Even though it’s a long par 3, there is a dramatic drop from tee to green.
Getting there : From Dallas, take I-30 west and exit East Chase Pkwy. Turn left, travel about 4 miles, and you'll come to the intersection of Spur 303 and Green Oaks Blvd.

Nice For A Friday Afternoon
Had a nice time playing in the afternoon. Not very busy at all. Fast Fast greens!!!!! Some open fairways and some narrow one's. Provides some challenges. Nice course for all levels of play.
Lake Arlington GC
good course, good rate, good fun, went after heavy rain, course held up nice.
Terrible customer service!!!
Where do I start! First off the guy in the pro shop has terrible customer service skills. He refused to give me a cart even though I prepayed my tee time through golf now. I was there 15 before my tee time but he told me I had to wait until he figured out where all the people on the course was at. He then began to tell me that people have not payed him before that's why he didn't give me a cart. I told him a prepayed and he still refused to give me a cart. Every time I play this course the same guy in the pro shop gives me a hard time. Great course. Management definitely needs to address this issue with this guy!
great course for a good round of golf.
Enjoyed my round of golf at this course. Moderate challenge for our group.
simplicity
Simple course but has its own challenges and had a good pace . Will definitely play there again.
looking good
overall good condition. Some tee boxes were unlevel, but that would be my only complaint.
Bang for your buck
Rains have helped get this course in better shape. Tee time at 7:30 AM on a Saturday morning with a walking rate (on a walkable shorter course) was $30. Played in less than 4 hours too.
Great for a fun round!
Lake Arlington Golf Course is a course that I've played for 40 years and always enjoy it. It's not overly hard, but it's not a pushover and it's in very good condition. Played 18 holes on Friday in 3 hours with a very good flow. Front side is fun; backside is challenging but has a couple of really pretty holes. Modifications to the course and facilities are a definite positive. Lot's of trees! You will need to work the ball!
Good value, fun course
Lake Arlington is a fun course to play and is not too difficult for any skill level. The back nine is really interesting with a big elevation change and views of the lake. The only complaint I have is that I have experienced unfriendly staff in the proshop on several occasions. They are particularly rude when it comes to bringing younger people to the course (my son for example)...its as though they think the place is an exclusive private club instead of a public municipal.
Still Lake Arlington
I've been playing Lake Arlington for well over a decade and it's never disappointing. First time playing since the greens were redone. I will return most definitely.
Decent Course, Limited Amenities
I played Lake Arlington for the first tme this past weekend. Overall, it was a good experience on a decent course. Pace of play was good. Fairways are open. Greens were pretty fast due to the season and the fact that the grass hasn't fully grown in yet. The areas in front of most of the greens were pretty "sloshy", so if your approach shot is short, you will get no roll up on to the green. I also found out upon arrival that this course has no range. Being a mediocre golfer, that didn't make for the best day out on the course. They do have chipping and putting greens, however. I was also disappointed that there were no cart girls to provide drinks or snacks. This is not a bad course, but there are definitely better options for your dollar in the area.
Golf Course is a traditional 18 holes.
Lake Arlington Golf Course is a beautiful.
The course has challenging golf along with a practice putting green and chipping area.
Lake Arlington Golf Course blends open and tree-lined fairways, long challenging par 3`s and scenic greens to appeal to every level of player.
lake arlington
tee time delayed 90 minutes. a frost alert special was on and several golfers standing around to golf. did not golf.
Great Course!
This is a nice course to play. Everything was fast. The staff was friendly which is great because I don't look like a typical golfer so I get odd patronizing looks at some clubs. None of that here. I would play this course again in a heartbeat.
Love Golf
Played this course many times, but this was first time in a year ( waited on new greens ). Management does not seem to take kindly to Golfnow customers anymore. 11, 12 13 & 14 is my favorite area. Enjoyed the round but not the cold shoulder treatment.
nice greens
Course was in good shape, one of my favorites, lots of trees, no sand tough back 9
Lake A
Reconditioned greens very good. Fairways ok, not ever as good as Ditto. Had fun.
Great value!
One of the best courses I've ever played, despite rough weather conditions. A great challenge that keeps your mind active and game on the edge. If you haven't played here before. DO IT!
Bad service. Price gouging when you book through GolfNow!!
Staff was very rude and tried to price-gouge me because I got "too good" of a rate with GolfNow. I walked out and called GolfNow to let them know how this course is cheating their customers. Don't bother golfing here, there's too many other good golf courses to play at!
