still early
Fairways are coming along nicely...greens were over watered and soft....bumpy and not rolling smooth....needs a couple more weeks to dry out and recover from arification.
Beautiful Course
Played on the Lakes Course, beautiful course, well groomed, good level of difficulty great staff, never rushed and only held up slightly
Round at Red Hawk
Took 4 hours 45 minutes to play.
Have a lot of buildings to navigate to get from parking lot, to pro shop, to restaurants, to driving range,.
Never did see a putting green.
Driving range was mats only, this in June. Very poor set up.
Starter acted stressed out to say the least. Once I got on course I saw why. A tournament in front of us (went off at 9:20), followed by a twosome, solo, foursome, and another twosome. Waited on every hole. Saw a Marshal once, about #12, said the last tourney group was a couple holes behind but thought he had them going. Picked up a little.
No workers around to check in cart, help with clubs nothing. Seemed very unorganized.
Great game
Played with Jim and Hardey who live on the course and they were a great help and made the day. MY partner, Erick, lives in Reno, and has played the course several times. All and all I had a great time and will be back again when I return to Reno.
Beautiful course very well maintained
This was the first time that I actually golfed this course and I was impressed with the friendliness of the staff and of course condition. Very helpful, and of course conditions were immaculate. I will be going back in the future
Slow play
Everytime i go by the 9th hole its back up. Sometimes l back 9 can take 30minutes a hole. Some of the slowest golf ever. I usually end up skipping holes. Never seen a marshall making people move faster.
Good early season start
First time my wife and I played this course. The red tees were particularly good for her as most of the holes did not present her with a hazard to go over and this made the round very fun for her. Fairways and rough were in good shape for this early in the season. Greens were a little slow and took getting used too, probably also due to time of year. Course was very fair on most fairways you could swing hard off the tee and keep it in play. We will be back. Great value and a very fun day.
The old and the new
Red Hawk in Sparks NV has a old school feel in many way, the kind of old school that makes golf one of the worllds greatest institutions. What makes Red Hawk new is the unparralelled modren approach to everything from your carts own gps to the details that allow for a world class golf expereince.
Hats of to the Staff ot Red Hawk "Excellent Job Well Down"

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!
Fun
Played the lakes course challenging but fun. The course is worth every penny. Made a tee time for winter rate because everything in the Reno area is way over priced in the summer. But $42.00 from golf now not bad. If you thinking about food Dave's bar and grill looks fancy but totally thumbs down on that place I'll save my money next time. I got a quick bagel and cream cheese before my round but who in the he'll brings out Frozen cream cheese any way the pro shop the guy working in there in my opinion thought he was holy than now kinda rude. But I wasn't there for the amenities I was there for the golf fun challenging and had a good day. I do believe that that staff at this complex needs to work on there customer service skills though I'll be back hopefully to play the hills course next time
Golf in March...The Lakes will challange and reward
The Lakes represents a layout for all levels of golf. From the tips one has to thread each drive to that just right spot and the greens are ready to hold all approach shots. The greens are made for brave putts...speed and break make each green a unique experience, all good.
The staff was spot on at each step of the golf outing. The course maintance team has done a great job of keeping the entire course golf ready and the carts are in great shape.
One ah ha moment was driving #17 240 yrd Par 3 across a small lake with the snow covered mountains in the back ground.
I'll be back again to check out the other course.

Red Hawk Lakes Golf Course a Golf Course or City Park?
Is the Lakes golf course a golf course or a city park? The beauty of the Lakes golf course has gone downhill. What used to be a great golf experience has become less like being on a golf course and more like golfing at a city park. The Lakes golf course holes 6, 7 and 8 have become a "city park" with dog walkers, skateboarders, bicyclists and a lot of non golfer, foot traffic even when players are golfing . Also, watch out for dog waste along these cart paths. GC needs to address this issue.
Please disregard the previous post. The Lakes GC management is working on making things better.
Outstanding!
