Fire Lake Golf Course sits in Shawnee, Oklahoma, a city in the central part of the state roughly thirty miles east of Oklahoma City. The course was designed by Donald Sechrest, an architect whose work appears primarily across the South and Southwest United States. The facility operates as a public course serving the Shawnee area and the broader region. The routing occupies land characteristic of central Oklahoma, where gently rolling terrain and native grasses define much of the landscape. Players encounter a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with water features—including the namesake lake—coming into play on several holes throughout the round. The design reflects Sechrest's approach to creating accessible golf that incorporates natural site features while accommodating a range of skill levels. Fire Lake serves both local golfers and visitors traveling through the region. The course provides a straightforward test of golf without excessive length or severe hazards, making it suitable for regular play. Shawnee's position along Interstate 40 places the course within convenient reach for those exploring Oklahoma golf options beyond the metropolitan courses of Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
