Shadow Lakes Club

Weather and conditions are great. Awesome value for a moderately challenging course.

Enjoyed the layout of the course. There are some great golf holes at Shadow Lakes that require some thought from tee to green. Not just a grip it and rip it course. That being said, it was nearly impossible to find yardage markers or signage directing you from greens to tees. (which isn't straight forward) Greens were in good shape, but the traps were horrible. The other negative was pace of play. I went out as a single on Labor Day. Expected a slow round, but was sent out solo between foursomes. Eventually bounced ahead a few groups and joined a twosome. From an elevated tee, we could see almost a 2 hole gap ahead of the 2 groups in front of us. No marshal to prod them along. This gap may have been caused by the half hour wait at the turn. Slow sandwiches? Again, I didn't expect a fast round, but I think with a little better tee sheet management and some prodding, we easily could have finished 30 min. earlier. That being said, I would play again...with an early tee time and a range finder!

The course has a great layout offering many risk/reward shots. Greens were in excellent shape and our group had a really good time, especially for $34. The food in restaurant has become way better, street taco's were some of the best I have ever had.

Our tee time through Golf Now was not honored, so we got squeezed in after the local mens club tournament went off ahead of us. We were about 30 minutes late teeing off.

The course conditions are decent in most places and poor in others. Lots of bare turf with mud around cart paths/tee boxes. Some fairways were bad. Holes 1-3 were just plugged and all the plugs left in the fairway.

Most if not all bunkers were pitiful. packed sand from over watering and looked like they hadn't been dragged in a while.

The greens were in good shape as the sun got hotter. Our first tee (#10, went off back), the person setting the cup drove his cart right on the green and left big tire tracks in everyone's line...two sets of tracks around the hole.

It will be a while before I think about going here again.

This is a good course to challenge your skills with many elevation changes and other challenges but you can score well if you keep the ball in play.

Fun course to play, in good condition with nice people in both the pro shop & bar

It was a warm day, but the conditions of the course were great. Like a normal time of the year here in Brentwood, the wind comes up and it makes playing the course challenging. It is a beautiful place to play.

The pace of play was good and the course was in fair shape. There was a drink cart available for the first 9 holes but did not see it again after the turn around 2 pm. The most disappointing thing was the water jugs on the course were empty and it was 101 deg afternoon.

7am start, finished at 11am, and paid $34 bucks for a Sunday round. Can't complain greens were pretty quick and a fun day

Nice setup quality looks at the east bay hills reasonable rates in the afternoon can get windy , wasn't when I played .liked the elevation changes and elevated tees.Golf course is in great shape and greens are true .will definitely find my way back.

Our threesome went out at 4:00 p.m. on the fourth of July. The Golfnow price was $20 each! That's with 18 holes with cart! Now, the temp was 100 with some hot dry wind, but overall good weather conditions. We were the last group out that day. We took our time and finished before 7:45.
The course was in good condition, although some greens have enough goose droppings on them to make the green nearly unplayable! Fairways were hard and traps are treacherous! I play here a lot, so no surprises for me.
The twilight rate makes this a great bargain. 12 years ago, Troon Golf was charging $85 to play Shadow!

Pretty decent layout with good variety of holes. Not well maintained. Bunkers are terrible. Greens are okay but slow.

course condition is good and course design is very unique; it is very challenge course.

the fairways and bunkers were muddy.California is in a drought.every one is conserving water why is shadow lakes wasting water.

Helpful and nice! Course looked good and I recommend this course over roddy any day

The greens are rolling really good right now. Fairways are in great condition. The bunkers need sand and a cart girl all through the day when the temp is above 90. Shot a 82, not bad but had 3 holes with 3 putts.

We were able to book a 2 PM time for Fathers Day and paid 24.00 with cart .
We brought dad - uncle- and nephew and had a blast- thank you golf now and Shadow lakes for making life affordable .

There are too many well conditioned courses in this area to put up with the poor fairway conditions and wet sand traps.

Condition has gone down hill over the years. I have played this course since it opened. Back then great conditions, not true anymore. Not sure if it is funding, staffing or training.
Poorly maintaned dry sod around traps
Several bare lies
Horrible Bunkers

My only complaint is the the geese and birds on a few holes like 4 they are everywhere and there waste is everywhere on the greens to.
