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.

Great course to play, no beverage cart in sight was up setting.

This course is a great course at an amazing value. The only downside is no beverage cart to purchase beverages thru the entire round. When hosting customers it helps to get drinks during your game.

All in all great spot definitely will be back soon!

Enjoyable Golf

I like The Lakes course, especially when the greens and fairway grasses are so good. Errant shots will cost you a stroke (and a ball), especially on the inward nine.

Firewheel Lakes is Good Course

Played Firewheel Lakes with some buddies. Course is in great shape. Greens were in great shape, but needing a trim. Today they were very slow. GoldNow had a great price of $39/player at 8:20am on a Sunday. Most Dallas courses are $50+ on weekend prime time, especially in summer.

Magnificently manicured

Attention to the details are aparant at this course. The entire course was manicured and tournament ready. Fairways and greens were soft. It’s a joy to play a course that’s in such great shape. The downside...the clubhouse is not convenient to the turn so they need more “ snack cart” visability but I highly recommend this course.

Great shape

The course seemed to be in great shap. A few tight lies around the green. Only disappointment was there seemed to be over booked tee times with multiple groups waiting on the first tee and groups being impatient.
