Lakes/Canyon at Blacklake Golf Course

Blacklake is great in that it has three different 9 hole course so you get a different 18 almost every time. The course isn't the fanciest but is definitely a good value if you can get a deal. Much more affordable that the surrounding courses.

Had a great day playing golf at blacklake golf course. Started off with a triple wasn't too worried about it because it was the first hole. The second hole par 5. I got it there in 3 shots one being a muffed worm burner. Then I putted it in for birdie about a 12 footer. Next two holes I got par. Not bad. Best hole of the day number 5 par 3.
150 to the flag. I got a hole in one!!! One bounce going at it and it dissappeared. Second one I've gotten in my golf career first one this year. That's why you keep playing. Ended up shooting an 87. Pretty good for me. Anyways just wanted to share love golfing here always have fun.

Staff was friendly. Practice facility was clean & not busy. Played in 3 hours. Fairways were a bit rough, dry in spots but thick in others.

I have played this course on several different occasions. This was the worst of them all. The person at the counter was not overly friendly. The course was in bad condition and the pace of play, it took us 3 hours to play the front nine and we walked away and did not finish our round. Only saw an ambassador once and they did not seem to tell the group ahead of us to pick up the pace. Very disappointing. With all the courses in the area to play I think I would chose a different course if this conditions stay the same.

It was a perfect day for golf. The weather was great and the course was good, except fit the greens. They had brown spots on every green that made the ball veer off line. You couldn't beat the price and I shot the best score this summer.

This course was probably nice 20 years ago, but obviously the course is not kept up any more. The tees are tore up, the greens aren't watered or maintained. There is poison oak EVERYWHERE. The cart seat had duck tape holding it together when we last went. This place needs a facelift to maintain my business.

This course has been a good place to golf however, due to drought and water shortage, the course was very dry and ground very hard making play somewhat difficult feeling like you're hitting off of concrete. My hopes are that water conditions change for the betterment of this facility.

worst condition ever. no grass. no water in two weeks.

this course we decided to play due to the reviews on the golf course web site. I guess all the reviews were from empolyees at the course. This course was in terrible shape. We played the Oak and Canyon sides. Oak side there wasn't a green patch of grass anywhere to be found. The canyon wasn't much better. I would have been happier if the club house explained the condition of the course before we started. At one of the holes we met up with one of the marshall's and talked about the condition. All he did was roll his eyes and really didn't have any comment. He knew why we were asking.
I don't suggest this course until California gets some water. Funny tho, we played another course not too far away and it was in great shape. I don't know if the owners are just letting the course go or what. There are many other courses in the area that are in a lot better shape.

Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Course was in good condition considering the drought California is experiencing.
Pace of play was good with no delays.

Pretty course. Need to shoot straight as several of the holes have narrow shots from the tees. I lost only 2 balls. Both went into water on same hole. One was a chip onto false front of the green and rolled into water. Not fair. My friend who is a 70s golfer took 9 penalty shots on Oaks course. Oh and my wife beat me. That hardly ever happens. But she is good. On the 6th hole of Lakes you figure out why it is called Blacklake...

Great staff well laid out very accommodating we will be going back soon.

The course is in wonderful shape! We had a great day of golf and huge discount. The staff was friendly and helpful and nothing spoiled our round.

Played the back tees. Trees need to be trimmed back openings from the blue tees appear to be 15 to 20 feet on a couple holes. My playing partner played the white tees and course appeared to be a lot more fair with openings much wider. Not really fair and sort of tricked up. Last time for me.

Pace of play was good since nobody was out there. Soon found out why, course was in terrible condition, virtually no grass on the driving range tee box. This carried over to the rest of the course, basically the course isn't being cared for, except the greens were in reasonable shape. Pretty decent layout, just rundown, we didn't understand why the owners would do this.
Got a low rate thru GolfNow, still not worth it, we all decided that we'd rather pay more and play Monarch Dunes.

Men's bathroom near the cart return REALLY needed servicing. Golf was fine.

The course was a lot of fun to play. It was challenging but not so difficult that we couldn't enjoy it. The greens were particularly challenging and could have been in better shape.

Don't tell anyone how nice we were treated by the head pro and staff. Loved our day.

Excellent, Outstanding day with out of town guests. We all felt we would like to play there again. Thank you so much for a great deal.

Conditions vary. The course is not always well maintained but pace of play is good and well worth the money on a hot deal.
