Lakes/Oaks at Blacklake Golf Course
About
Situated along California's Central Coast atop the Nipomo Mesa, Blacklake Golf Resort offers three different nines, each named after the different attributes of the beautiful landscape. The nines can be played in three different 18-hole combinations. Players of all skill levels will be able to find a golf course that suits them. The Lakes/Oaks Course begins with the most player friendly of the three nines. Though as the name implies, water does come into play but the fairways are wide and forgiving. The opening par-3 hole gives you a confident start but the length keeps it from being a pushover. The Oaks nine features narrower fairways that wind through groves of coastal oak trees. It is a more target-style layout where you may find yourself in the woods if you're not paying attention.

Golfer Reviews
Rundown and poorly maintained
Ok layout but very poorly maintained. Overpriced. Too many much better courses in area to waste time and money here.
Very pleasant round!!
Good pace of play, course was pretty wet especially the green because of heavy overnight marine layer.
Condition
The course was in good shape. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars for condition was because a lot of the greens needed more TLC
Thanks to Colby for operating the course so well.
O.S.U.
Concert parking
They had a concert and parked cars on hole one of the Canyons coarse.
This was not disclosed when booking.
Great variety of holes
I like the course and most of the greens are in good condition exceeding those at nearby Rancho Maria and Avila Beach. The staff, especially the young lady named Clairissa are exceptionally friendly and efficient. Perhaps the best in the area and right up there with those working at nearby Monarch Dunes golf course. I would like to see the fairways cut shorter and the cups locations changes more often. Overall very good place to play golf.
Blacklake on a sunday
Fun but slow group in front of us. Marshall followed us for a few holes. Never told group ahead of us about pace or multiple tee shots on every hole. Fun course. Good value
Affordable round in Nipomo!
Blacklake has a cool layout. The greens are pretty smooth but play a little slow. The tee boxes and fairways need mowing and grooming. Lots of duff left on the fair way fringes. Some challenging and rewarding holes! The clubhouse had good food, music and relaxed vibes. Overall great experience and worth checking out.
Course has potential but in very poor shape.
Actually a nice layout and several well designed holes. However, course in total disrepair. Clover in fairways and un-mowed tees. Greens better than rest of course but still well below average. Too many much better options in the area. Very disappointing
Poorly maintained
The entire course lacks routine maintenance/mowing, some tee boxes were mostly dirt..
Slow pace of play.
Practice area was closed & putting green was in rough shape.
Beautiful trees and great course
Tall trees really creat a beautiful landscape and you need to shape your shot to get through.
