About
The Lakes Course at the Resort at Red Hawk is a Robert Trent Jones masterpiece that has helped vault Reno and the High Sierra into the upper echelon of West Coast golf destinations. Named the best daily fee golf experience by readers of the <em>Reno-Gazette Journal</em>, the Hills Course is a challenge not to be missed.
Playing to more than 7,100 yards from the tips, the Lakes Course is a haven for big hitters who love dangerous risk-reward opportunities, as well as for players who thrive on accuracy in their golf game. More than 100 bunkers challenge golfers, as do a plethora of trees and water hazards that both add to the aesthetics of the course, and the difficulty.
Along with its sister, the Hills Course, the Lakes Course has helped the Resort at Red Hawk become synonymous with stellar golf action and excellent service.

by the way we're in our early 70's
February Golf
Course was in good shape for February. Greens rolled nice.
second time for bad experience
I did enjoy to play this course. The course was maintained and well designed. So I played there several times.
But I had a bad experience with the staffs due to dead cart before.
Last Sunday, I came there with my dad(78 years old). When we started playing at the 1st hole, we realized that the course had 'Cart Path Only' that day.
When I did purchase the deal, there was no mention about that. And they didn't let us know that when we checked in.
My dad had a hard time to play there and then.
If I know the course had that condition, I was not going to buy the deal. There was another deal which was cheaper and having cart access fully.
That was so bad...
great time
Played both courses and thought lakes would be tough with water but it was set up great and played fair. Great conditions heading into the winter months..
As always this is a great course
The fair ways and greens were immaculate. This was a rather chilly day so our round was completed in 3 hours. The outstanding value well compensated for the chill.
more sand than Abu Dabi
This is a very good, and challengeing, course (Lakes Course). There are more sand traps than I have ever seen on any other course, but thet are well laid out to offer you a great game.
excellent course, long round though
course is in excellent shape, greens were good for this time of year, good test with ample room to spray some drives, round was slow with tournaments in front, only minor complaint
Nice but covered with goose droppings.
We played on a Monday and pace was fine. Bunkers were hard as a rock, goose droppings covered the fairways anywhere near a pond and there are ponds/water on most holes. They really need a border collie to chase off the geese. And they need to deep rake the bunkers.
Practice facility was good except the practice green was very fast compared to the actual greens that had been punched 4 weeks earlier. When they punch greens they should punch the practice green as well so that the practice is worth while. I practiced putting for 20 minutes only to find out that it was pointless.
nice course, but poorly maintained. very disappointing.
Greens punched over 2 weeks ago, but although healed,had never been rolled. Very disappointing. Practice space very poor. Hard to believe this is billed as a resort course. Pace of play ridiculously slow.
Had to leave after 15 holes as was on a 5+ hour pace.
Great Course
Course in nice shape especially for mid Oct. Staff very courteous! Greens take a lot of getting used to, FAST!
Beautiful Layout
The Lakes course is a beautiful layout and was in great condition when we played. Depending on your choice of tees, the course can be easy to very challenging.
The frustration in our day (other than our golf abilities) was the slow play (5:15). Three groups on one tee box is excessive. Turns out there was a tournament in front of us and some of the players were drunk (9:00am tee time).
Great value for the reasonable green fees.
Course lay-out was very fun to play, fairways and greens are in excellent condition. If you are in the Sparks area, you must play at this course. We played the Lake course, booked online at GolfNow and received a discounted rate.
Enjoyed the round very much.
Carts were nice and clean with GPS.
Course condition was very good.
Only downside is hitting off mats on driving range.
The course and staff were great. Will play this course whenever I am back in this area.
The tone for the day was set when we met Malcolm at the bag drop. Staff was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. The course was in excellent condition. I consider myself to be a hacker and therefore found this course challenging and fun to play. I would strongly recommend this course to anyone traveling to the Reno/Sparks, NV area.
Challenging course from the black tees
Course is in excellent condition. I got a great deal through golfnow.com. The course plays long if played from the black tees. It brings a lot more trouble into play. The par 5's are reachable in two and they provide excellent birdie opportunities. Great course, I have played it a handful of times over the years and it is always well maintained and staffed.
