Really impressed!

Price was very reasonable and the course was in really good condition so early in the season. Friendly staff, especially Mike who brought me my club! Ordered a chicken sandwich and it was really tasty. Caleb was a hoot. Carts were very nice and comfortable. Unfortunately, the old curmudgeon starter teed us off (pun intended). Taking my cart over to the practice green, he yelled, "Hey, you need to check in!" I said, "I'm heading to the putting range, we don't tee off for 20 minutes". "You need to check in now!" Then, he wanted a receipt from my playing partners. It was pre-paid and we didn't have a receipt, so we had to wait for him to call the pro-shop to see that we were legit. The old coot needs to realize this is the hospitality business. I told him that "I'm not impressed with your treatment". He didn't seem to care.

I play this course about a dozen times a year. The course condition was much better than it was last year at this time.

Course is shaping up nicely, but like all courses in the Northwestern Nevada area, I just don’t understand how there isn’t some decent sand in the bunkers?!?!?!….. after all, we are living in a desert……. Sounds like a business opportunity to me!!

One of the slowest rounds of my life.

I was literally waiting on every tee box

Sometimes i was even waiting in the fairway too..

Course is in good shape and the greens are rolling good tho.

Course Management is Awful

I have been a resident of Reno for over 45 years. I have played Red Hawk since it first opened and have never been more dissatisfied and disappointed than I was on this round. No course marshall. Players screwing around on the course. Tee times too close to each other. We waited on every tee box for a least 10 minutes. I don't know what happened to Red Hawk but it is not for the better. There are many more well managed courses available in the Reno area. I was offered a discount on my next round for my troubles. I should have been offered a free round for our group. I will not be returning to Red Hawk nor will I be recommending it to anyone I know until management makes a proven change.

Ehhhh…

I actually used to have a membership here. Not worth it, go to hidden Valley, or any of the Duncan courses. Red hawk is a fine track. Like a $40 course at best if a town has more than four courses. Their problem is they try to charge you like a super nice course. Then you get out there and wonder where all the money is going. Bunkers are wildly inconsistent, most are full of rocks, they still use the big hole punches for the greens so it’s been 2 to 3 months since they punched them, and the greens still roll like the moguls section on mt. rose.

Most of the people are very nice, the young guys in the pro shop are awesome, cart girls are very nice, restaurant staff awesome! But the Marshalls….. my god! The older Marshalls, the lady- Mary and her partner in crime. I think his name is Steve or something like that tries to force you to drive the same car as somebody HE wants to pair you up with, if you want your own cart he tries to make you pay $20 even though nobody else says anything about it anywhere. Those two are always up to some shenanigans.

I know people that go hit on the range who are not trashy in any way shape or form, but they might go out in a nice T-shirt and a pair of shorts with tennis shoes. They’ll come up to you and tell you that you’re not allowed to be there if you’re not in a collared shirt. Even though the practice facility is for sure at the bottom of the barrel for Reno. The layout is terrible, the turf mats haven’t been replaced in years he Maisel just hit off the sidewalk, it’s got to be the dumbest chipping green on the West Coast and it’s got a bunch of mold. When I was on the putting green the holes had no white cup in them, it was just a whole cut in to the grass.

I mean that’s all fine if you want to run a very upscale course and the ambience is at that standard… I love playing courses like that. I just played a $600 course in Hawaii. But you pay $80 and deal with all that when it’s evident they cut corners on quality any chance they get…

If you’re from out of town looking for a place to play, I’d go to Lake Ridge or Wolf run.

okest

The weather wasn't perfect like selected, but it's March it was good for March. The greens weren't great, but it's March they were better than I expected. The weather was ok, the course was ok, it was March and I got to go out and swing the clubs with my buddies. Had a wonderful time.

Winter

Course is in brown winter playing conditions as expected in March. Greens were true and rolled fine. Actually soft enough to leave ball marks despite the cold. Only preventable condition issues is bunkers are a loaded w/ LOTS of golf ball size and smaller rocks in every bunker. Pick them out to save your clubs.

Great Golf Course

This two courses are always fun and challenging. It can get windy at times which makes it a little more challenging. The Hills course may be a little easier than the Lakes but I recommend playing both. These are my go to courses when visiting Reno.
