The Lakes Course at Red Hawk

Played the lakes course challenging but fun. The course is worth every penny. Made a tee time for winter rate because everything in the Reno area is way over priced in the summer. But $42.00 from golf now not bad. If you thinking about food Dave's bar and grill looks fancy but totally thumbs down on that place I'll save my money next time. I got a quick bagel and cream cheese before my round but who in the he'll brings out Frozen cream cheese any way the pro shop the guy working in there in my opinion thought he was holy than now kinda rude. But I wasn't there for the amenities I was there for the golf fun challenging and had a good day. I do believe that that staff at this complex needs to work on there customer service skills though I'll be back hopefully to play the hills course next time

The Lakes represents a layout for all levels of golf. From the tips one has to thread each drive to that just right spot and the greens are ready to hold all approach shots. The greens are made for brave putts...speed and break make each green a unique experience, all good.

The staff was spot on at each step of the golf outing. The course maintance team has done a great job of keeping the entire course golf ready and the carts are in great shape.

One ah ha moment was driving #17 240 yrd Par 3 across a small lake with the snow covered mountains in the back ground.

I'll be back again to check out the other course.

Is the Lakes golf course a golf course or a city park? The beauty of the Lakes golf course has gone downhill. What used to be a great golf experience has become less like being on a golf course and more like golfing at a city park. The Lakes golf course holes 6, 7 and 8 have become a "city park" with dog walkers, skateboarders, bicyclists and a lot of non golfer, foot traffic even when players are golfing . Also, watch out for dog waste along these cart paths. GC needs to address this issue.

Great course, friendly staff & perfect layout!

Excellent greens with very comfortable pace of play... Highly recommended to all skill levels!

started 2:30 but not enough daylight didn't finish. do not offer t times later than 2:00 pm can not complete round.

Very nice course. Enjoyed my time. Pace of play just a tad to slow.

Course is in excellent shape. Greens are true. I would definitely recommend

Third time playing the courses over the years. Played lakes course the first time it open. A lot has changed for the better. For some reason I don't understand why they don't rake the bunkers daily. Staff was great.

It was a very warm day.

The sign at checkin said they have a cart available for refreshments.

So, here is the problems with this course.

NO cart for refreshments showed up in over a 5 hour round.

Second, NO water available on ANY hole.

Third, On the Hills course there is NO availability to stop at the bar/resturant to obtain even water.

I was not aware of that fact as this is the first time i have ever played this course.

Bottom line. Red Hawk advertises that is it a premier course in the Reno area. I found that to be absolutey not true. EVEN muni courses have water on SOME holes. If i had known that there was not going to be a cart service on the entire 18 holes or an opportunity to purchase food or water/driinks after nine holes i would NEVER have played this course.

Horrible experience

Played this course on a Saturday afternoon 1:00 T-time, sunny 90 degrees. Arrived with great expectations after reading the reviews, once the pro shop had my money it all went downhill from there. Signs posted all over the place "No outside food or beverage" which is normal, I am ok with that, signs posted saying beverage cart is on the course, perfect. Had a hard time figuring out where to park the cart for the driving range until the all in one, starter, range attendant, groundskeeper, janitor told me to just park it anywhere. Round started great good course if you hit it straight, over 100 bunkers on the course, greens in good shape just not consistent through 18. Ran into a foursome on the second hole that took forever until the turn where we played through, NO MARSHALL anywhere around. Was a 90 degree day, no water for drinking anywhere on the course, and low and behold NO beverage cart anywhere also. Overall good little course with tons of sand but it had that country club appeal but delivered the community course feeling. Too many good courses around area to play again.

Great course with a challenging layout that can be mitigated by using easierT boxes. Sand needs some maintenance, but fairways and greens were near perfect.

Played the lakes for the first time this year on 7/8/16 on a beautiful day. The greens were in awsome shape and rather quick which I like. I only found 2 bunkers out of over 100, and the sand was the best I have seen it, so getting out of the sand was fun. The fairways are very wide here so one is almost always hitting their second shout from the fairway, nice. Really enjoyed playing by my self in less that 3 1/2 hrs. Really looking forward to playing here again soon.

Played on a beautiful, breezy spring day. The greens still had some aerification signs but we're still okay to putt. Tees and fairways in excellent condition. Our 3 players played different tees but the challenge was fair for lower and higher handicappers. The landing areas are very generous for a course with the slope rating it has but plenty of bunkering makes you think your way around. The staff was very personable and helpful too. I will definitely go back my next visit to the Reno-sparks area.

Two carts died on the back nine. Took forever to get a new one.

Wind from 25 to 40 miles per hour, I hit 120 yard club over green at 175 yards, and normal Driver was 70 yards short into the wind. However; no one else on the course enabled me to play 18 holes in 2 hours.

Started on time. Course in great condition compared w last years when economy down. Good pace of play 4h 20 min. Greens tough but reasonably true even though punched and sanded 1 week before. I would play again if they kept the price reasonable. (or a discount for walkers)

Excellent course to play at and GolfNow makes it affordable for someone like me to enjoy. Thanks for the opportunity!

Saved about $15 by booking through Golfnow.com. Played with some local guys that knew the courses well. There are two courses and I played the Lakes. I was told this one was a little harder than the Hills.course. Great day of golfing with some very friendly locals. I would recommend this course if your playing in the Reno/Sparks area. I did purchase a bucket of balls and when I got to the range it was closed so double check with them to verify the range being open.

I played the first 5 holes of the Lakes course without encountering any other golfers. On the 6th hole there was a foursome on the green and the beverage cart was coming my way so I asked the gal if there was another group on 7. She said it was really backed up, and a high school girls tournament was getting ready for a shotgun start. I thought I was going to have a miserably long round. She then said the Hills course was virtually deserted, so I drove over there and started on the 6th tee, and breezed my way through a less than 3 hour round! Why didn't the golf shop guy tell me about how crowded the Lakes course was, and suggest I play the Hills course? Poor customer service.

Great time and excellent pace even as a single. A arrived late and was sent rite out no problem. Once you find first hole the rest was easy to navigate.
