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.

Greens in great shape. Pace was good even for a holiday.

First time playing in a long time the course was in great shape and not crowded(I guess I’m the only one dumb enough to play with a 106 heat index at 12:30) the only thing I would change is keep the kitchen open longer.
Play this course
I like the layout of this course. The fairways are well kept as are the greens. (The day I was there, the greens had recently been aerated and top dressed. So I'm not able to talk about green speed and consistency.)
I found would have liked a couple of more direction signs.
I recommend this to the average golfer for a fun round.
Punched Greens
5 hour round! Booked the round on Golfnow . No advisory of punched greens on Golfnow. Archer in the clubhouse was rude when we asked why they didn’t let people know about the greens. I won’t go back to this course!!
For First Time Players
The front nine was kind and friendly. Not to difficult and makes it somewhat easy for players to have birdie and par opportunities. The back nine is harder with a couple of challenging Par 5's and 3's.
I had a great time and will be back to play more. It's a great value.
Nice Course
First time will go back...Greens in good shape but must read grain...little sandy from dressing...Good value and good folks...
Nice course
First time i played this course...greens were great, fairways were nice and full..I will be back
We almost forgot about this gem!
None of us could remember why we stopped playing here but trust me when I say it's truly the best municipal course around D/FW hands down! Not much critical water and bunkers are few.
The layout appears to attract walkers (Not Us!) but the pace of play did not suffer at all for our 3.75 hours round. Personally, I didn't go to the restaurant but the other guys did and service was on point. I'd have actually given 5 stars except for the "unlevel tee boxes", but we figure that comes with good pricing and conditions of a Muni. I'll be back!
BORING COURSE
Firstly, the course layout is straight, straight, and straight. It's okay for beginner players since layout is as expected, straight all the time with exception of some dog left and rights. Also this place has no driving range where you can warm up. If price is lowered, then it may be worth the money. But this place doesnt even have single sand bunker to make course interesting. I was bored and wanting to go home by the time it was 9 holes.
Lake Arrington golf course
Course in good shape. Greens are in great shape. I enjoyed my my round.
Great shape
Lake Arlington was in great shape!! It’s winter fairways of course but the greens were so green and smooth. We would give 5 stars across the board but we got behind a slow group of three who seemed to not care that they were holding everyone up and no course Marshall to help out.
NEVER AGAIN
had three booked at 12:00
girl friend found she could play
booked her (full price) at 12:00
