RedHawk Golf and Resort

I've played Red Hawk a ton in the 20+ years it's been open. It's a really good track and a good test of golf.

I'll also say that Red Hawk does a great job with pace of play at both courses. There's days when you show up and see a packed parking lot and feel a five-hour round coming on but it's almost always four or just over, in my experience.

This round showed a growing problem with courses and GolfNow/TeeOff, however -- the lack of the course accurately conveying conditions through the booking website.

We showed up and learned it was cart path-only. Understandable but there was one member of our group who was not physically in a good place for that.

Whether cart path only or temporary greens or carts have to be back in by a certain time, it's problematic enough that I won't be renewing my GolfPass membership. GolfNow/TeeOff blames the courses and the courses blame the website. Have had enough.

The Lakes course is the go to for this area. Good course, challenging and the amenities are excellent. Comfortable carts and smooth cart paths throughout the course. The greens for this particular round were in excellent shape for this time of year.

The course is in very good shape for November. Completed 18 in 3.5 hrs

did actually play the Lakes course. Over booked the course so had to play the Hills. It was not a bad track, .Greens were extremely fast and bumpy with lots of break.

Pace of play was great considering the course was packed. Seemed a little under-staffed.

Greens are firm but receptive.

Only quibble is a lvl of consistency with the bunkers. Some are soft and fluffy. Others (around 9, for example) are hard-packed.

I've played the course many times before it's a nice course and it's in good shape. The thing that impressed most of all was the sand they had it filled recently making it some of the best in town.

The golf cart we drove came with a very restrictive (and annoying) automatic low speed setting that made for inconsistent speed settings on the entire Hills golf course. How would you like driving a golf cart that continually lurched, even when the accelerator was fully depressed? The cart display also showed continuous unnecessary minor warnings (e.g. “Caution Bump Ahead”) that pestered us while driving.

I have played this course probably 30 times over the last 2 years, and I firmly believe it is one of the nicest courses in Reno! The afternoon tee times in the summer can’t be beat cost wise. However, REDHAWK HAS THE WORST BUNKERS IN RENO. Their sand is absolutely awful, Rocky, concrete like, and are impossible to hit a decent shot out of. Course backs up pretty bad during the day, but typically afternoons breeze by. I’d give this course an overall 10/10 but the bunkers bring it down to a 7.5/10 for me

Nice track with great views of the valley. A few of the fairways and a couple of greens were not in the best of condition otherwise the course was in very good condition.

Played 2 days in a row they had same pin position, there was no cart girl, and the round took 5 hours

Also many trespassers on course people jogging, walking, riding bikes, talking and kids on motorized bikes.

On the 7th hole there were kids on bikes talking on cel phones trespassing talking while we were trying to tee off

On the 11th hole there were kids on motorized bikes causing problems with excessive noise

Also no cart girls and they never told us when checking in

Played Red Hawk lakes course twice. The course layout is great and it was in outstanding condition. Greens were fast, but true and fairways were great.

Staff was very friendly and helpful!

Will be back to play the Hills course soon!

Played back to back days 5 hour rounds each time

No beverage cart on 10/4/22

Also my bud hit on a par 4 guy was 275 away and Mr Yamamoto yelled at us said to be patient
