Greens and Fairways are in good shape. Pace of play in the AM is great. Practice facilities are there but not ideal. Staff is freidnly and do the best they can with what they have. No Pro shop so come prepared.

Interesting layout - nice elevation changes, beautiful views of Mt. Diablo and surrounding hills; but got a little tired of all the houses - just have to look past the houses to the horizon ... fair amount of water, one par 4 with an "island" green. Course condition - fairways had a fair amount of inconsistent ground and ground under repair, but tee boxes were okay and greens were nice. Paid $33 p/p with cart, certainly a bargain for this course on a weekend. Overall very much enjoyed the ambiance of the place. Nice gals working the bar! Will play again but next playing the sister course Deer Ridge.

Played a tournament that previously was held at Chardonnay in Napa. Shadow Lakes is not in the same category as Chardonnay - the course is only okay, the food was not very good - dry roast beef, overcooked vegetables, only one dessert choice.

An interesting course. Every hole is different with great variety up and down. There are several fairways where blind shots will benefit greatly from course knowledge. Greens are in excellent condition but breaks can be deceiving and get slower throughout the round.

got an exceptional price on golfnow. Staff is friendly and course was in good shape, especially for winter.

Fun layout and the mgmt is working to improve the course under a very adverse golf economy.

I play this course at least once a month and have experienced it through every season. I have to say, regardless of weather conditions, the fairways and greens are consistantly in good condition. There are a few areas with poor drainage but they are usually where you shouldn't be hitting your ball anyway. The course is basically an easy course with a few challenging holes. The view, the ambience and the PRICE keep me coming back.

The course is improving at a steady pace. The bunkers remain poor on most holes. The greens are challenging. But the rates have been lowered to attract more people and it has worked. It is a tremendous value but a very playable course for all skill levels.

Fair but very challenging layout. Extreme slope and difficulty on greens. Open driving on many holes. View views of surrounding area. Course is nicely maintained exception: condition of bunkers. Play was VERY slow on back nine and not marshalled.

ONE OF THE BETTER LOCAL COURSES. FAIRWYS ARE CHALLENGING, GREENS FAST.

Great golf course - fairly fast greens that run true - elevation changes, doglegs, challenging Par 3s, can get windy in the afternoon. Great quality for a reasonable price. If you live within 30 miles of Brentwood, it's worth the drive. There are two other good courses within 5 minutes of Shadow Lakes.

Right there with Roddy Ranch and Deer Ridge to make the "Big Three" in the area. This is the best shotmaker's course of the three and probably the toughest.

Nice course, too many blind shots, otherwise good layout.
