Rating 75.5

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.

Wet..cart path

Despite a week of rain, the course drained pretty well and the greens were in pretty good shape. Very speedy round for walking.

Muddy but worth the value

Fairway's conditions are not bad but need more management for the grasses.

It's cost-effect~

Good Sunday Round

I have played here a lot and as usual it was a fun time. Only complaint is that the tee boxes were really dry making it difficult to get a tee in the ground on some holes. Other than that it was a good day.

Great play!

Been playing here for a couple of years now, luv the layout of the Lakes. They could space out the groups playing and not stack everyone so close but it is what it is. I'll be back on the next warm weekend as always!!
