Called Hill course for a reason

The golf course goes up and down over several hundred feet on some holes. The course was in great shape and the greens rolled really well fantastic putting surfaces so it stayed online. Would NOT walk this course its extremely hilly. Easier than the the lakes course. Staff was really nice and pointed us to the first tee and cleaned my clubs after the round which was a nice touch. In my opinion both Red Hawk courses are in the top 3 or 4 in Reno/Sparks would play both courses again. There is water on the course but it was hot and I am glad we brought extra water with us.

Switched Courses

I played the first 5 holes of the Lakes course without encountering any other golfers. On the 6th hole there was a foursome on the green and the beverage cart was coming my way so I asked the gal if there was another group on 7. She said it was really backed up, and a high school girls tournament was getting ready for a shotgun start. I thought I was going to have a miserably long round. She then said the Hills course was virtually deserted, so I drove over there and started on the 6th tee, and breezed my way through a less than 3 hour round! Why didn't the golf shop guy tell me about how crowded the Lakes course was, and suggest I play the Hills course? Poor customer service.

Course needs some signage and customer service

This course has GPS controlled carts, this is fine if the staff would have explained the workings ofthe cart. By not having control of the cart it can put you in a bad position and leaves you trying to back out of a bad sidehill with no power. The course was beautiful and the level of difficulty was just enough to make it a good challenge. Pace of play was horrible as we ran into the typical 4 old ladies hitting the ball 30 yards at a time. But seeing a herd of Elk on the course made up for it. I would play this course again if I am back in the area.

Nice Course

I truly enjoyed playing this course. I played from the black tees and it was a fair test. I really liked the Poana greens. Being from Georgia I play mostly on Bermuda. Playing the Hills course the scenery was spectacular overlooking the Sparks area. Got to see up close two coyotes roaming the fairways. Got some good pictures of that. Overall I will definitely play this cours again if I am back in he area.

Good condition

Of the two courses this is the better half though its effectively un-walkable. Was in excellent condition. The GPS and incessant messages from the onboard computer are a nuisance and very irritating. Two beers and a Gatorade from the cart girl was 16 dollars? You have to be kidding.

Fun Course To Play

Very well maintain course. The club is right around the corner from where I live. i haven't played there previously because it is fairly expensive for my retirement budget. Discount rates through GOLFNOW made playing possible. Watch out for the many fairway bunkers.

Nice course but bring water

The course was in excellent shape and very pretty. However, if you play in hot weather, as we did, be sure to bring water with you. There is no water on the course and despite assurances, we only saw cart girl once in 18 holes.

Very Nice Golf Expereince

Despite afternoon wind gust of 20-25 mph, the golf experience here was very positive. The course was in excellent shape, the course somewhat challenging with wind direction and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely play again if I am in the area and would recommend play to anyone interested.

Great golf course

The only minor issue were the bunkers. Seemed to be very little sand under the ball.

A day at Red HAwk Lakes Course

The Lakes course is one of my favorites. The day was brutally hot at 100 degrees. I was behind a twosome .
The pace was slower then usual due to a tournament, and as the day went on the pace got slower and slower due to the heat. The beverage cart was in circulation and the course marshal stopped by a few times to keep me updated on what was going on up ahead. I passed the waiting time by repairing divots in the tee boxes , and fixing ball marks on the greens. An enjoyable day never the less even with the brutal heat.

Beautiful Course!

This was my 3rd time playing this course, and shot the Best round of my life!! Course condition is superb and scenery is beautiful! Course knowledge is Huge, because of some blind tee shots and dog legs. My only gripe, which was kind of a Big deal because of Heat; was there were no cart girls/no cold beverages!! It was a weekday but still, the course does not come near the clubhouse on the turn so we were pretty much stuck out there. Minus that, I recommend course!

A great golf experience

We played the Lakes course, had lunch and then played the Hills. Condition of both were excellent. The Lakes course may better be named the Traps course. Someone said there are over a hundred traps. I found my share! But this beauty is a joy to play. The Hills course has to be among the all time favorites. We came back a second day to play the Hills again. Awesome.
The golf was a great experience. But the restaurant was a major surprise. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all fantastic. A destination in itself. Great staff, great golf, great food..... We will be back.

Excellent course

Very friendly and accommodating staff..
Greens in excellent shape. Very true roll with only minor irregularities.
Not a grip and rip course. Has to be played with thought and planning.
Well worth the fees and should be on every visitors playlist.

love the course but....

This is the 2nd time playing the hills course and it did not disappoint. Groomed fairways and fast greens as well as a great layout. Only thing my partner and I could complain about is the hole placements. I like a challenge but it seemed every hole was tucked into a tournament position. One par 3 over water was put on the top of a null 4 feet from the edge of the green. Maybe they were having a tournament later in the day. It would have been nice to go to the center of the greens and at least have a look at a make-able birdie. But the course was great and can't wait to get back.

One of Reno's Best

Played Red Hawk's Hills course and it was in excellent condition. The fairways were green, the greens were very smooth and it's a very nice layout. In the Reno-area, I have played Lakeridge, Wolf Run and Red Hawk and Red Hawk is my favorite.
