Shadow Lakes Golf Club

Overview: At Brentwood, Shadow Lakes Golf Club gives the public an 18-hole course, with a par-70 layout of about 6,420 yards. The course’s open East Bay setting uses water, trees and broad landing areas to produce a relaxed parkland rhythm, while the recent reopening gives the property a newer chapter than its directory record suggests.

History: The course closed in 2018, reopened part of the routing in 2021 and returned to a full 18-hole presentation later. The current club identifies the reopening date as October 17, but the retained material does not clearly name the original architect or a single opening year for the present course.

Did You Know? Shadow Lakes’ modern story is one of restoration and return. The course was not simply renamed after a short closure; it moved through a partial reopening before the full 18-hole facility was available again, a sequence that explains its current condition and identity.
