Championship at Incline Village Golf Resort

Beautiful course, layout, condition. All staff exceptional especially Chris who was very helpful. Professional, friendly, efficient. Price is a little high but well worth it. They have our highest recommendation!!

First time here as I normally play Edgewood but was cart path only due to tournament prep so heard Incline championship course was a great comp to Edgewood. I was paired up with a few members so they helped guide me, I found the course in great condition but also a tough layout as there were some long holes that had carry a creek or some other carry to get to the green. I will play again.

I came in as a single, got paired with some young guys( 30's) lot of fun great guys. It's a beautiful course and a real treat from the courses I accustom to. I three putt way too many greens. It's early in the year and the greens are slow. It was a beautiful day on a beautiful course.

Fast greens, great layout, would love to play again.

My recent round at the Incline Valley Championship Golf Course was a fantastic experience. The course's breathtaking layout was in pristine, impeccable condition from start to finish. What truly elevated the day, however, was being paired with three welcoming locals who made me feel right at home with their friendly banter and helpful tips. It's a must-play for its top-notch conditions and inviting atmosphere.

FYI for the staff ... given that increment weather was in the forecast, the course should have posted the policy for bad weather, meaning, should they blow the horn and pull you off the course, what is the refund / voucher policy. Our group was told one thing, but then had to argue once this situation happened. The course did meet with a satisfactory solution, but only after our group stuck to their guns.

Great Staff and we always play multiple times when we come in the summer. Spectacular views and early summer conditions.

Played 18 holes in the afternoon. My son and I were joined by a local player that knew the course well. Fairways are lined with trees, so we had some tree troubles. Got to hole #8, 170 yards from the blue tees, and I drilled an ace. I'll remember this course for a long time!

The staff from the pro-shop, cart services, starter and food services were golfer friendly and professional. We always enjoy playing at Incline.

Incredible championship course from the tips. Bring your A game off the tee. The greens roll true. They really should have the us open qualifier here.

There’s something deeply unsettling—yet strangely glorious—about playing golf a mile high, surrounded by pine trees that whisper threats and encouragement in the same breath. Incline Village’s Championship Course is a high-altitude fever dream: tight, scenic, and just deranged enough to keep you guessing whether you're playing golf or starring in some Eisenhower-era survival film. The layout is strong—Robert Trent Jones Sr. was clearly in a mood when he carved this out of the forest. Narrow landing areas, elevated greens, and enough forced carries to make a sober man weep. It’s beautiful, yes—but it wants blood.

The first few holes lull you in with postcard serenity: sunlight dancing off the pines, Lake Tahoe peeking through the trees, chipmunks frolicking like they’ve never heard of double bogey. But don’t be fooled—this course has fangs. Miss a fairway and you’re hacking out of pine needles and whispering prayers to forgotten gods. The greens are slick, sloped, and damned near psychic. They move the ball without touching it, like a Vegas magician in white spikes.

Conditions were very good—not immaculate, not Augusta—but far better than the usual resort fluff. Tee boxes level, fairways lush, and the greens rolled quick and true. A few rough patches here and there, but nothing that interrupted the righteous pilgrimage from tee to cup. The staff? Friendly enough to make you suspicious. The pro shop was stocked, the drinks were cold, and the driving range had enough altitude to make your 6-iron feel like a ballistic missile.

Why not five stars? Because this course, for all its beauty and testicular toughness, flirts with being too tight—too unforgiving. A man can only slice so many into the timber before his spirit begins to erode. Still, if you want a round that challenges your game, your lungs, and possibly your sanity, Incline’s Championship Course is a worthy arena. Just bring extra balls and a flask of something honest.

Hard to complain about terrific weather, beautiful course conditions, play never held up and finished the round in three and a half hours! Hope to have the opportunity to play this course again next year (course closes next year).

Tough course but a vacation round with my spouse so I played the white tees. Love the course and surroundings. Totally prefer this to any links courses. Amazing how it's built on the side of a mountain yet has fairly even landing areas on every facet of the course. A must play. if near Lake Tahoe.
