Lakes/Canyon at Blacklake Golf Course
About
There are 27 holes of championship golf at Blacklake Golf Resort, allowing golfers to mix and match to suit their preference and skill level. The holes are divided into three nines: the Canyons, Oaks, and Lakes, that can be played in different 18-hole combinations. Located on the Nipomo Mesa along California's Central Coast, each nine takes its name from the rugged landscape. The Lakes/Canyon combination strikes a good balance between being challenging and player friendly. The front nine is more player friendly, starting off with a confidence-boosting par 3 and with fairways that are wide and forgiving. It's rather long, though, and therefore not to be underestimated. The back nine tumbles across undulating terrain, incorporating elevated tee boxes that overlook the lush fairways below. The various vistas and valleys invite refreshing sea breezes to keep you cool.

great course with blind greens
Little slow on play but still finished about 4 hours. Great view so no need to rush. Had a good game with my daughter then went back to the dunes to ride the quads. Quads, fishing, and golf good trip.
Good place to walk
The starters here have always had a difficult time managing the 3 nine hole courses. They are consistently allowing groups to jump in between groups transitioning to their second nine so you never know who will be in front of you when you get to your assigned place. It becomes a free-for-all when busy. Otherwise it is a nice course. The Lakes course has many parallel holes, the other two do not.
Khaos everywhere
Crazy all around the course , very much a unrulely beginning course.
Best value I've seen yet!
For the money, you can't beat this course. 3 separate 9 hole venues that are each unique layouts, providing very different challenges.
Best Value
With 3 9's the pace of play is always good. The friendly staff makes it fun. Great value.
Great experience for a great deal
I really enjoy this course
I will recommended on the future
This course is on the Central Coast, CA excellent weather, Great value.
I've played here before, and paid alots more in fees & cart
Thanks GOLFNOW, HOT DEALS....
I've always loved this course.
Playing hear is always fun. You have three different 9 hole layouts to choose from with each 9 being different. Most recently I have seen a big improvement regarding the conditions of the course itself. The only thing a little disappointing to me is the snack shop which seems to be there only to be a nuisance to the bartenders.
Nice greens, nice layout, crowded
I played the Canyons and the Lakes courses. Really enjoyed the Canyons course. It is not as wide open and makes it seem less crowded though my group did wait at every tee box. Since we played mid-day Saturday on a gorgeous day its not surprising. Overall I really enjoyed the course. Some challenging shots and a well maintained course. Some of the tee boxes were pretty rough, and a few of the bunkers were rock hard. I look forward to playing the Oaks course next time I am in the area.
NIce for the price.
Not sure I would rate the course so well if I had to pay full price. However, at the Golf Now cost, it was a real bargain. Removing fallen tree debris should be more of a priority. Hard to play the ball down when loose impediments are so numerous.
Great Golf Experience
The course was in great condition, weather was awesome, food and drinks readily available, pace of play was not too brisk or slow. We had a great day and it was the best dollar value on the Central Coast and the conditions were beyond my expectations. I hadn't been in five years or so and had been playing a lot of Cypress Ridge and Rancho Maria, but this is back on my radar in a big way. Go, you won't be disappointed.
