Oaks/Canyon at Blacklake Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Very good value
Got a hot deal rate at a great price. The staff was extremely friendly. Pace of play was perfect. Had a group of 2 in front and behind and all groups finished in less than 3 hours (yes, a 3hr round is possible). Greens were better than average. The fairways were the only negative, they were average for what a muni should be. Will be playing again, hopefully I have the same experience.
Black Lake - What’s Next?
What is going on with the course? The fairways are deteriorating at such quick rate and there doesn’t seem to be any improvements going on. Might need to rethink your greens/groundskeepers.”
Course is getting worse
Fair ways are really rough; lots of bad lies even in the middle of the fairway. Bad gopher problem. I would only play here for practice.
It’s In Rough Shape
Fairways needed to be mowed and full of gopher holes. Greens in terrible shape.
Cool spring day
Greens where in good condition, fairways need to be mowed. Good pace of play!!
Course condition
Greens were good. Fairways were okay. Still a little wet from rain, they could use a lot of bare spot seeding and repair.
Miserable 9 holes
I was only able to play 9 holes and I was by myself. The starter put out a group of 5 followed by 4, 2 and then me.
Bad planning, course is in its normal state of dis-repair with plenty of bare spots and gofer holes.
On the plus side the weather was great.
Good value
Reserved tee time same day and was able to tee off on time. Round took just over 3.5 hours with cart. Oaks fairways were not in beset condition. Lakes course much better. For the price and convenience I will be back.
With the lack of rain, the fairways are not faring well.
Blacklake Lakes - Oaks
Course is a little run-down Greens in bad shape. (May be wintertime)
Fun layout, decent greens, good pace of play... Need to fire the cart guy.
Girl in the pro shop was great. Friendly and cautious.
Please fire the heavy set cart guy. He is bringing your course down. Complete jerk at every interaction. This guy all on his own makes going to this course something we will not do again. He literally is making stuff up to complain about and makes sure you hear how he thinks everyone but him is an idiot. Needs to be fired.
The course... Yes, it is rough around the edges but we thoroughly enjoyed playing it. No complaints. For the price it provided a fun time.
