Highland Lakes Golf Course On Inks Lake

The golf : This scenic 9-hole course adjacent to Inks Lake was redesigned by Dave Bennett in 1990 and offers many breathtaking views, with five of the nine holes set along the lake. The course features mature oak and mesquite trees that impact play throughout the design. Water comes into play on seven holes. The medium-sized greens are basic and of average speed.

When rains are frequent, the fairways are plush and the greens are in good condition. However, if you catch this course during a summer road trip when temperatures consistently reach the high 90s, expect dry conditions and a more rugged feel to the course.
Given the scenery and the course, the price is right, and you can pay once and play all day.
