Shadow Lakes Club

Use to be a 18 hole course. Reduced to 9 holes now. Fairways in good condition. Sand traps were excellent. Greens were good. Rest of course quite overgrown. Sad state of affairs for golf courses in California.

The course is in good shape. The greens are excellent. Pace of play was slow but I’m thinking this was due to the holiday. I was booked for 11:10 but didn’t tee off until 11:30. Also the reservation was with a cart but all carts were out so I carried my bag and walked. The course would benefit from having more carts. Another note the driving range is nice. Lots of targets and yardage markers.

Fun course… I’ll be back!

Not sure if it’s just “winter” or what but the greens, fairways, and bunkers are absolute doo doo at the moment. Should be cheaper to play here.

Course I layout is great, however we were close to a 5 hour round on a Wednesday afternoon. No Marshall or beverage cart on the course.

Was looking forward to playing the 9 holes that were closed and was not disappointed. Grass is growing, and what’s dormant now will be green come next rains after winter.

Good greens, sand, fairways and tee boxes.

Will only get better from what I can see and then we’ll see how it’s maintained thereafter.

Can play soft or fast and firm going up and down the Brentwood hills.

The course is poorly maintained and the pace of play is super slow. It took 3 hours for the 9 holes of play. The course was extremely muddy, and the course condition is the worst I have experienced.

I always enjoyed playing Shadow Lakes before it closed. When it reopened as a 9-hole course I was skeptical but the course is in fairly good condition and the holes they’ve used are still fun.

The driving range is in good shape. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Should have done more research before making the trip out to Brentwood. Our group couldn't remember the last time any of us had played the course. After making the turn and inspecting the scorecard, we realized it's only a nine-hole course. Pro shop put another group in front of us when coming off the ninth! Not cool because it was so slow already. Fine, the greens were absolutely beautiful and fast and that made up for our mistake of thinking it was an 18 hole facility. Grass range was a nice treat too!

I was late for my golf now time and the staff still let me play. The staff are nice and I even got my phone returned too when I left it in the cart over night. Great experience!

I was surprised to see a rate under $40 and expected the course to be in bad shape, especially knowing that the course was closed for years. I didn’t expect to find 9 of the holes were gone and the 18 hole course was actually a replay of the same 9 twice. Really nice people made the experience pretty nice but I won’t be going back. Staff explained that GolfNow double booked the 11:00 an 11:10 tee times but it more likely was fitting in people finishing their first nine. Wait times were okay but things backed up through the nine holes. It was fun to remember holes from 8-10 years ago and the greens were pretty good. But there should some type of advisory note on GolfNow.

Poor ratings all 5-star...I booked my hot deal 18H cart rate online 11:10 Fri Oct.21, after playing the first time at Shadow Lakes was a total disappointment ! At the time of booking,
there was no specification of the Back 9 was being under construction, only found out the hard way after the 1st. 9H, everyone has to play the Front 9 twice.
Furthermore, during check-in the clerk in the Pro Shop had no courtesy of mentioning that the Back 9 was in construction. I paid for(single) cart rate, also, I didn't expect to ride with a stranger while there plenty of carts available!!

I play once a week, I've been booking tee times for 11 years on Teeoff or Golfnow,
nonetheless I never wrote any negative reviews nor had any bad experience such as this!!!

I booked my 11:10 Fri Oct 21,2022 hot deal tee time online, after playing there the first time was a disappointment. At the time of booking of 18H/cart rate, there was no specification of the back-9 was under construction-only found out the hard way that everyone has to play the front-9 twice! Furthermore, during check-in at the Pro Shop the clerk had no courtesy of mentioning- the back 9 was under construction, as a result, must play the front9 twice.
Also, I paid for cart rate, the clerk forced me to ride together with a stranger!!
Even though, there were plenty of carts available.

I play once a week, I've been booking tee times for 11 years on Teeoff or Golfnow, I
never wrote any negative reviews nor had bad experience of misleading and dishonesty such as this.!!!
