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.

Nice Course with Plenty of Challenge

Really enjoyed the course. Plenty of tee boxes to choose from depending on your level of play. Greens were good and most fairways were good with the exception of one or two. Had a frost delay so that really slowed things down a bit and finished right at 5 hours. Only wished there would have been a beverage service on the course. It was 70 degrees by the turn and would have liked to get something to drink since we did not turn at the clubhouse. Overall a good course and friendly staff. I will definitely be back again.

Beautiful Course

Very fun and challenging course. Greens were in very good shape. I didn't tee off until 1 hour after my actual tee time due to it being so busy. But that gave me plenty of time to warm up. If I had been in a hurry it would've been an inconvenience but I wasn't. Would definitely golf here again.

Great Golf Course Value

We played the Lakes Course. You wont be disappointed. It is very well kept, and the greens were perfect. I highly recommend you try this place. For the price and conditions, its hard to beat.
