Firewheel at Garland's Lakes Course - No. 11
The 183-yard 11th on The Lakes Course at Firewheel is one of the prettiest holes on the layout. Kiel Christianson/WorldGolf.com

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.

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.

My go to course

Always a great place to play for the money. Course is always in good shape, and the pace is fairly fast. 18 holes in just over 4 hours. I love this golf course. It’s challenging but yet easy enough if you’re an average golfer. Would definitely play anytime.

Great value

The course is a great value in DFW. However, the greens were having some issues, several bare spots on a few, and almost all of the had a severe weed issue. Fairways and boxes were fine,

Great course and great value.

Greens were well kept, course was well maintained, and pace of play was decent. Freewheel has 3 different courses and is one of the best public courses in North Texas.

Greens are good.

Slightly biased review as this is my home course. However, that said it’s a fun course. The greens are in really good shape. The fairways are hard so you’ll get plenty of rollout. So, if you’re looking for a confidence booster and a low score then I’d highly recommend.
