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.

Surprised

I was pleasantly surprised by the course and property! Great amenities, except golf range, it was bad mat turf, hard as a rock. Basically have a better range and fix the bunkers and you get 5 stars easy. Some of the bunkers had grass growing in them and were hard, except for the ones you can see from the clubhouse, those ones had nice new white sand, LOL!

Great layout, and difficult, par 3 over lake 221 yards into the wind isn’t your normal par 3!!!!, Marsh areas surprised us being that we were in the desert of Nevada we thought?? Some tough pin positions on very sloped greens.

I would play it again.

Nice Course

The only negative about this course is the bunkers need sand in them. A few had none and several others the sand was a bit sparse.

Lakes Course

We really like this course. Fairways are in very good condition. Greens are excellent and rolling fast. Sand areas need a lot of work. They have dusting of sand with hard dirt base. Gravel and large rocks are mixed in with the sand. Also hit a large rock in the base dirt on one sand shot. Started playing sand as lateral drop. For a Troon facility they should be in better condition.

Redhawk Lakes

For $37 it was a fair price considering the course condition. Several bunkers had virtually no sand and there were several bare areas around the greens and tee boxes. Definitely not a bargain at the full rack rate.

Tournament backup

I don’t recall having a round as slow as this one. Found out from Marshall there was a tournament just ending while on the 8th hole and play should pick up. Met by 3 groups on the 10th hole which continued until 16. Not sure how the tournament created the slow down, maybe shotgun? It would be good to know before booking, or have a better system for start times. Need to bring back the Georgia sand as most traps were concrete. Still a fan of Red Hawk as a great course

A good track for the price paid. Not so much at the full rack rate.

Off course amenities are excellent.
