Shadow Lakes Club
About
Shadow Lakes Golf Club sprawls across rolling hills with Mount Diablo looming in the background. Dramatic elevation changes characterize the course, providing both challenges and scenic views of the East Bay Area. The undulations of the terrain range from subtle to dramatic and helped to determine the strategic placement of the sharply sculpted bunkers, of which there are many. The design of the golf course blends seamlessly with the existing landscape with swaths of native grasses outlining each hole and natural rocky outcroppings coming into play throughout. The course incorporates links-style characteristics as well as a variety of different challenges including water hazards and deep rough. One particularly memorable water hole is the par-4 16th. This is Shadow Lakes Golf Club's signature hole that features an island green that slopes in front, back into the water.

Great course
Course was in great conditions. Greens were rolling good. Fairways were good. Overall it was a great windy sunny day. Cant wait to come back thanks
Good deal on golf now for 20 bucks
Staff not friendly hot dog at turn was cold golf cart not in good shape . Course overall was good. But not impressed with people and food
pace of play
Our experience at course was, overall, very favorable. Staff was very friendly in the clubhouse, restaurant and on the course. Course condition was very good....greens fast and undulating. A couple of areas for improvement are: 1 scorecard should have pictures of the course on them. Many second shots are blind. 2. The rough and hills need to be cut lower. A ball hit into it is lost as vegetation is 6" or taller and the ball most vanishes. Shorter cut rough would DRAMATICALLY speed play, reduce lost balls and lower golfer frustration. One word to restaurant, condiments for food at the turn ate so !much better out of a container rather than a packet. Mustard, ketchup, kraut, pickles/relish and onions are needed....and would increase sales too. We had great time but with the I!ptovements listed above it would have even been better.
course condition
Very disappointed in course conditions. When I called to asked about the greens after the recent aerification, I was told that "they're almost perfect". Nothing could've been further from the truth. The greens were slow and bumpy, weeks away from being playable. Had I not received such a cheap rate, a would have requested a refund.
Far From Boring
Adrenaline junkies delight! This course has everything to keep someone alert!!
When the cart girl came around, I ordered two flat lies, hold the sand traps and no OB.....Of COURSE she messed up my order. But since Golfnow gave me a 49% discount, on green fees, It only cost $18.00, and 4 hrs to eat that SANDwich. Shadow Lakes, is a HOOT to play
beautiful course
The course is in great condition, the greens are a little rough due to recent aeration. Love the layout on each hole.
Great course for a great price.
Really enjoyed this course. Challenging holes and a really cool layout.
The Pins were placed in some tricky spots
Course was in very good shape and overall improving since last time playing there. The pins were all in very tricky spots and never had a straight putt.
one rainy round
When I arrived it was raining lightly.When I started my round at 11.38 the rain picked up and by the end of the second hole it stoped.The elevation changes were great and the water hazards were in nice postions on the course.But by the 7th hole the rain picked back up and by the 9th hole it was a down poor.We had to mark are golf balls after the are second shoots.We couldn't hit up the dance floor due there was a stream of water cutting it into two halfs.So we road into the club house and meet the group of 5 in front taking shelter and I asked if they were giving out rain checks for half off are next round.I went inside to ask that question and was giving the answer the course was still open.My reply was it was not playable,so we waited 15 min for the rain to past and played the back 9 in sloppy conditions and the greens had standing water on them.I would like to comeback and play it dry conditions,the course has a great layout.This time mother nature won out.Thats golf some days.
Staff Could Have Done Better
I played single with another single and we were to pair up with a 2some. They let the 2some out early before a tournament of 6 groups. They did not even bother to call us in and see if we were ready. We were in the practice green waiting. My tee time is 10:50 am. The tournament was supposed to start at 11:40 am but starter let them out early, way ahead of our tee time. So we had to wait almost an hour and we were tailing this tournament play. THEY COULD HAVE DONE BETTER THAN THIS!!!
Nice Layout But Needs Some Work
The course receives plenty of play and we played 18 holes in about 4 hours. The fairways could use some grass and because of this your drives roll out a long ways, firm dirt. They did not offer flags for handicapped players and our cart broke down on the 11th hole. The bunkers have very little sand. It's a nice layout with firm greens that have lots of break in them. We paid $22.50 per player on a weekday and the value was good.
always a pleasure playing at shadow lakes golf course
Great round of golf with my buddies, pin location that day was really challenging although I like the speed of the green. watch, won quite a few skins and my putting that day was superb. Great green fees. I will definitely recommend this golf course.
Greens are in great condition!
I took a buddy of mine to the course for a birthday round. The pace of play was about 4:45, but the course is in great shape. The greens were fast, and rolled true. I definitely recommend going out and playing a round when you can find the time!
Fun BBQ at Turn
Great BBQ running outside the pro shop at the turn. All beef hotdogs were great. Nicely grilled. Other options were burgers, bratwursts and hot links. Make it easy to grab a bite on the turn without slowing down the round.
Played it twice
Played 36 holes 1/25/15. Course in good shape, very happy with the greens, if people would just fix their ball marks!!!!! Come on it takes 10 seconds, and you and everybody else will enjoy the experience going forward. I must have fixed 5 ballmarks on just about every green. Pay it forward people!!!!
Fun course, in great condition
Has some very fun and challenging holes. The view from the 16th tee box is amazing. I had a great time and will definitely be back soon.
Nice course some hard water hazards overall good time
Had a good time good staff greens were okay overall great shape
Played in 3 hours
The course was in good condition, but the facilities are getting a little worn. Greens were in good shape, but were much slower than they looked.
Poor service
This place consistently has the rudest clubhouse staff. I enjoy this course, but they need to talk to their guys about how to treat their customers. There's a lot of other courses in the area to choose from.
