About

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.

6hr round of golf anybody?

I am not usually one to complain about playing golf, even if it’s a bit slow. I get it. But EVERY TIME I play here it’s a joke! This last round (6/17/24) was a weekday and no joke it took six hours to play 18 holes! Everybody was getting impatient which lead to the foursome behind us hitting in to our group twice. The rangers do nothing to speed up play, the starter stacks everybody on top of each other. Very frustrating! Takes the fun out of the game.. glad I didn’t pay the ridiculous full price they ask.

Hills

Enjoyed playing this course. It was moderately challenging. Greens need some work and the course rough needed some care. Staff were very friendly. Would recommend this course to friends.

Nice

It's a nice course haven't played it in awhile.The staff is always nice. The course is in good condition. It was hot, catch 22 not a lot of people because it was hot. Got off a little early nobody in front or behind. Just a nice pace we weren't getting pushed, we weren't pushing anyone.

Course was nice but pace was sloooow!

Only one course was open so there may have been some spill over but the course was overbooked, and golfers were backed up. Lots of waiting at Tee boxes...

Sli e of Heaven

I have been trying to golf RedHawk for awhile and finally had an opportunity to. The weather held being it was a cloudy day, the course was in great shape, and the staff was friendly. The scenic views are amazing.

Every time I come to Reno I look forward to golfing at Redhawk.

Got a huge discount through Tee-Off, otherwise never play it. RedHawk is way to proud of there facility and the green fees they normally charge.

Course was in good shape for this early in the season.
