Horrible Management and Organization

Nice course BUT coordination between starter and bag drop area was absolutely terrible and unorganized. Pace of play was atrocious. 3 hour front 9 . Course ranger was no help at all. Traps not raked. Greens not well maintained with many unrepaired ball marks. Nobody accountable for managing issues. Allowed three High School groups to play scramble in early Saturday afternoon. And this was a “Resort Course “? Change management and I might play there again

Red Hawk

Have played course since it opened and it’s almost always in very good condition. Pace of play yesterday was as bad as I’ve experienced. Tournaments were scheduled along with regular play and it was over a 5 hour round.

WAAAAY over booked!!

Driving range closed on Tuesdays from 11 to 2. Maybe close half and half so people can warm up? Just a thought.. Then at the 4t hole (Lakes) literally 5 groups waiting to tee off. Took 45 min. to play that hole. Was backed up the rest of the day. Took almost five hours to play a round. Pathetic. Very frustrating. People were all getting impatient and hitting up on each other.

Great course - and I shot well

I love Red Hawk and anytime we can find a deal out there, we’ll play. After a couple of days of rain, I was concerned that it might be a bit sloppy but it was in great shape. I also shot incredibly well which is a bit of an anomaly. The only thing that sucked was that my buddy just got back from Hawaii with gifts for me and my dad. I left the bag in the back of the golf cart and it was not recovered. I don’t think anyone stole what was in the bag, the people who clean the carts on return probably saw the bag and just tossed it into the trash.

Great course and variety of holes

This was the first time playing the Hills course and I put it miles over the Lake course. Hole variety, tee shot selection, approach distances, and greens difficulty all contribute to an entertaining and memorable round.

Most greens, fairways, and bunkers were in excellent condition, though there were a few greens that looked to have a fungal infection. Hoping the course can get those sorted before they get worse, but the pins were in a spot that kept most of the dead spots out of play anyway.

Pace of play was great, though I mostly attribute that to drizzle/rainy conditions that kept most of the public tee times off for the day. Unfortunately, we happened to play on a day they were doing what seemed to be a club championship, so pin locations were definitely tricky. Course knowledge is helpful here too, and I definitely recommend playing up at least one set of tees for your first time.

At the price and time we got on, this course is a great deal, though I wouldn't necessarily pay more than about $70 for 18 with cart regularly.

Greedy

This is a great layout beautiful golf course but simply not worth the prime time rate. I've played well over 100 dollars for golf regularly and I've never not received golf balls included with that price. This club thinks it's located in truckee or souther California!! 165$ for lakes at 8am on a Sunday. Save your money and play elsewhere it's nice but not resort nice like they want to be. Won't be back until prices come down to earth

Good condition, don’t offer complimentary water.

Course in good condition except for bunkers. Fast greens. Water fountains don’t work and don’t offer complimentary water even with a heat advisory. It was 104 degrees.

Links Feel and Fun

The Hills course at Redhawk is a difficult but fair golf course. Tee shots are fairly straight forward, with the exception of the 10th hole which requires some course knowledge. Greens are fast and if you miss on the wrong side it is a challenging two-putt. Overall a fun course with some quirky and challenging designs. One compalint is; we were finishing 16 and told to return to the clubhouse. There was plenty of light/time for us to finish. Let them play!!!! Haha.
