Harbor Lakes at Harbor Lakes Golf Club

Harbor Lakes Golf Club sits in Granbury, Texas, a small city southwest of Fort Worth along the shores of Lake Granbury. Designed by Dick Phelps and opened in the 1970s, the course reflects the era's approach to residential golf development in North Texas, where relatively flat terrain is shaped through earthmoving and strategic water placement to create playing interest and real estate appeal.

The layout incorporates multiple lakes and ponds that come into play on several holes, a signature element that gives the course its name and defines much of its strategic character. Water hazards require careful club selection and course management, particularly on approach shots where carries over or around lakes determine scoring opportunities. The course features tree-lined fairways typical of mature Texas parkland designs, with native pecans and other hardwoods framing holes and providing definition to the routing.

Harbor Lakes serves primarily as a semi-private facility, offering memberships while also welcoming outside play. The course provides a straightforward test of golf suited to a range of skill levels, with length and hazard placement creating enough challenge for accomplished players while remaining accessible to recreational golfers. Its location in the Granbury area, known for its historic town square and lakeside setting, makes it part of the region's modest golf offerings west of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.
