Rating 69.3

Blacklake Golf Resort boasts 27 holes of championship golf that are divided into three nines called the Oaks, Canyons, and Lakes. The nines can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Oaks/Canyons Course is the toughest of the three. The front nine features narrow fairways that wind through mature coastal oaks. If you're not careful, you may find yourself in the woods on this challenging target-style layout. The back nine doesn't get any easier with a layout that tumbles across rolling terrain. With the resort's location on the Nipomo Mesa along California's Central Coast, the elevated tee boxes on the Canyons nine allows for some stunning views. The location also invites refreshing sea breezes. In addition to the three golf courses, there is also a 275-yard driving range available with more than 30 grass and artificial teeing areas as well as three putting, chipping, and pitching greens.

Good deal

Great deal on tee off. Pace of play slowed to a crawl after ten holes. We got stuck behind two groups of 4 old guys.

It was fine

Staff not clear about which course we’d be playing and they changed it after 9 holes. Didn’t really matter they are all fairly similar.

Good course for the value.

It is an average municipal course but make sure you get the discount rate through Golf Now as they don't offer the same discount at the course. The greens were slow and a bit bumpy. Fairways dry but we are in a drought.
