About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 71
Length 7106 yards
Slope 127
Rating 73.1

The Resort at Redhawk is known to golf travelers around the globe and is one of the highlights of the grand golf destination that is the High Sierra. Located in the town of Sparks, next door to Reno, the Hills Course is one of two 18-hole runs at Redhawk and draws raves for its challenging play and incredible scenery.

Designed by three-time U.S. Open champion Hale Irwin, the Hills Course offers players a Scottish links-style layout that has small and dastardly greens, dramatic elevation changes, deep bunkering and immaculate views of one of the most scenic golf destinations in the United States.

While the Hills Course is a must play in the Reno area and will challenge long hitters with a 127 slope rating, Irwin added another touch to the resort. A unique, 18-hole putting green will have players competing, all the while improving their putting game, helping to make Redhawk and the Hills Course a standout in the High Sierra.

Fun interesting course

I usually play muni type courses. So this was a treat. Totally fair feeling course wideish fairways with much elevation change. Especially on the back nine. I would happily play this course again. Also less break than appears on the greens.

Nice course

Course was in good condition. Greens were not consistent. Some were fast and others were slow. Sand traps need to be filled up with decent sand and the rocks removed.

A nice up and down course

A number of fun elevated tee shots as well as a variety of lies due to mounding in the fairways. Consistent green speed with interesting sloping and mounding.

Terrible pace of play

Got stuck behind a foursome that was both wasted and terrible. The back 9 took roughly 2 hours and 45 minutes to play. There was no Marshall on the course to spend them up. Practically ended up playing with my foursome, a threesome and another foursome because the group in front was so slow!

Beautiful Hill Course

We played the Hill course. The staff was helpful and friendly at check in. There is a long way between the clubhouse and hole number one. They had a beverage chart on the course, stocked with whatever you might want. The course was very well maintained. The cart paths were excellent. The only downside: we got back in about 7 p.m. and the clubhouse was locked up. Even if we had wanted to go in to buy a shirt or whatever, no one was around. Other than that, we really enjoyed the course and would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun day of golf.
