Lakes at Firewheel Golf Park
About
The Lakes Course at Firewheel is a links-style course that is loaded with water, and was a Dick Phelps creation on his return to Garland in 1987. Hole 7 is the most difficult–a long 549-yard par 5 that requires an approach over a pond.
Getting there : From Dallas, take Hwy. 75 north and exit Arapaho. Turn right and when you come to N. Garland Ave., turn left. Drive to W. Blackburn Rd. and turn west. The course is just down the road.

Good, tough course
This course is more challenging than most. It was in great condition. Lush fairways and smooth greens.
Our foursome play in 4 hours on a Saturday morning. Great pace of play.
Disappointed.
I used to love playing here but the last few times it has been 6-7 hour rounds because they are over booking their golf courses.
3 weeks ago I played here and I played with 3 other people and by the time I made it to #17 I was playing by myself because the 3 other people left because the pass of play.
Today was a lot of the same. I got to #17 and there was 4 other groups ahead of me waiting on the tee box. Its simply ridiculous Managment.
So if your gonna play here, expect a long round.
Great course
Firewheel is always an outstanding day of golfing! Love the price point and the conditions!!
Firewheel Lakes Review
Played at 10am on an overcast day that was still very warm. The course was in pretty good shape, some of the bunkers were less than ideal but overall the course played well. Played the back tees (yellow) which added to the difficulty but it was still fair. Greens rolled pretty well only a few of them had odd stripes running through them like a mower was leaking fluid or something. I'd play it again for $38 for sure.
Rough was heavy & deep. No cart girl. Would think the pro shop would have told us! A beer or two would have been nice..
Great course!
The course is in great shape! My only complaint is that every time we've played the course there is no cart person to provide drinks or snacks to purchase.
Great Day for Golf
It had been about 7 or 8 months since I last played at the Firewheel Lakes course and I am happy to report that the course is in very good condition. Although I don't get to play it as often as I would like, it is still one of my favorite places to play. The greens were in good condition and as has always been the case, for me,, they putted true to their reading.
