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.

Staff was very friendly. Course was in horrible shape in my opinion. Carts were ready about 5 min before our round started. We were waiting about 10 min per hole for the group ahead us. Took about 4-1/2 hours to finish 18 and barely beat the darkness. Greens are fairways played hard and fast. Maybe the course looks better in spring or summer but for winter golf, I’d look elsewhere.
Delayed teeing off
Everything was fine and delayed tee off for frosted fairways..
Friendly staff and weather was fine with the rounds except frosted in the morning.
Course is in absolutely terrible shape
The greens are actually horrible, mowed down weeds scattered throughout the surface make for a nice obstacle. Tee time at 8:15 and finished at 12:55.. will not be going back, way overpriced for the quality of this course.
Week end golf
The pace of play is horrendous We wait for 15 min on every holes. We gave up after 5 holes. No martial to monitor ,
Poor pace of play
Busy Friday after Thanksgiving and no sign of a Marshall. A slow twosome ruined the day for many many groups. Tee off time was mid morning so was shocked that there was not a Marshall keeping an eye on pace.
A lot of folks would be irritated at the pass of play but for a public course on a Saturday afternoon you should expect it.
Greens are lost
The greens have huge patches of dead spots. They’ve really let this place go. It used to be one of my favorite courses in DFW, but it’s gone downhill severely.
