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.

Breezy Does It

Just enough breeze today to fight off 95 degrees. The course is in very good condition, even the bunkers that I visited were in good shape. Greens are a little grainy, but smooth. Fairways are excellent. You will enjoy it.

Nice course

I played this course for the first time and I'll definitely be back. The course was in great shape - fairway grass was great, first-cut of rough was very playable, greens rolled true. The course has some really pretty holes as well. Beware however, this is a pretty darn difficult course. Woods and water on nearly every hole and many of the fairways are really narrow. All-in-all a big thumbs up!

Great day for golf

Thought the course was in excellent condition. Greens were great. Pace of play was a little slow. Lots of players, but still finished in less than 4 hours.

Great Day

The course was in pretty good shape but greens were slow, slower than they should have been. Other than that, it was great!

Glad to be Back

We had not played The Lakes for some time due to the poor greens the last time but were pleased to find them in much better shape this time. With the great pace of play and price, we'll be back.
