When is the best time of year to play Lackland Golf Course to avoid the intense heat?

The clubhouse at Lackland is straightforward and functional, offering a pro shop with essentials and a snack bar. You'll find standard golf course fare - hot dogs, sandwiches, and cold drinks - perfect for a quick bite after your front nine or a casual lunch post-round. Don't expect gourmet, but it hits the spot.
