Lakes/Canyon at Blacklake Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Need Marshals to keep good pace.
Pace was very slow. No Marshals onsite ensuring players don’t linger or take too long looking for lost balls. The pro shop guy wasn’t very friendly or attentive. Better customer service is needed.
We apologize for the slow pace and lack of marshals on site to ensure players don't linger or take too long looking for lost balls. We will address the issue and strive to improve our customer service. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Course conditions were excellent. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the friendly conditions and people. Great deal through golf now app.
Nice layout. However, the fairways were very sparse and the greens were very slow.
