Lakes/Oaks at Blacklake Golf Course

Playing this round just after high winds the night before so with all the trees on their course the leaves and debris from all sorts made fairways and greens very badly maintained and its houses lined every hole that makes all holes narrow and pace was terrible.

It was an overall enjoyable round of golf. They have 27-holes at this facility. It was my first time playing this course and I gave it an overall 4-star score. I played the Canyon-Lakes nines, which the person behind the counter said were the two best nines. For a Saturday 11:30 tee time, pace of play was on point...4hrs, 5mins. Fairways were meh and greens were good. These two nines could play quite difficult if you're not hitting it straight. There are some narrow openings. My favorite hole was the second on the Canyon...a par 5 that is tight as a frogs butt. I had a southwest burger and fries at the turn and it was OUTSTANDING. Seriously, one of the best tasting burgers I've had in a long time. I'll be back!

Course conditions are good, long challenging fairways and difficult greens. All in all a beautiful environment to play. I highly recommend playing Black Lake Golf

After the rain, the course looked beautiful and green.

The fairways and greens were in great shape, the pace of play was quick, and the weather was perfect !!!

Course in pretty good shape. The par 3 (hole 8) on the Canyons is still having the tee box rebuilt but the rest of the greens were solid. The fairways looked good as the recent rain definitely helped with the usual bare spots found on this course. The Oaks layout is funky and narrow but course designer was limited by the real estate and terrain. Overall, good value for the money as with Golf Now deals can be found.

Nice course for the average player (over 10 handicap index). Three nine-hole courses to choose from.

Fairways need more grass, but hard to grow in our drought conditions.

Did a last minute golf now deal. A little over $30 to play 18 with a cart. Hard to beat. The recent rain has helped with course conditions. The fairways were decent and the greens were in good shape.

This course only gets the 1 star for the greens which were, I have to say excellent. Otherwise it is a utter goat track. No definition between fairway and rough, both of which are in awful condition along with the tee boxes. I have been playing golf for over 30 years and have never come across such a poorly maintained course, apart from the greens, which were receptive, quick and rolled true, getting to them was the issue. Glad we purchased via a hot deal at at $58 (inc fees) instead of the normal $79 + fees. I wouldn’t play here again if you paid me, STAY AWAY!

It was a last minute decision to play Black Lake on a Saturday but the online Golf Now deal was too good to pass up. The course was in good condition and the bunkers had plenty of sand. On a couple of holes on the Canyon 9 there were a lot of leaves on the fairway which sometimes made it tricky to locate our golf balls. Pace of play on the front 9 was great. We hardly had to wait at all. The back 9, Lakes, was a different story. Play was backed up quite a bit, but it was the Saturday right after Thanksgiving. The front 9 took @ 2 hours, but the back 9 was closer to 3 hours. No big deal. We had fun.

Greens were rolling nice. Overall course condition wasn’t great. We are heading into winter so I’ll take that into account. But $91 on a Friday morning is too expensive. You’re better off playing Monarch Dunes or Cypress Ridge near Blacklake.

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.

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.
