LakeRidge Golf Course is a Robert Trent Jones course that has consistently been voted the "Best of Reno" ever since it first opened in 1969. Though the course sits less than five miles from downtown, the surrounding mountains provide a tucked-away feel. There are some stunning views from the elevated tees but don't get too distracted, this challenging course demands your attention. Mature trees tower over the fairways but they are thankfully wide enough to offer a little room for error. Water comes into play frequently and there are strategically placed bunkers lurking along the undulating greens. Accuracy is essential at LakeRidge Golf Course. The signature hole is the par-3 15th. This tee sits atop a rocky ridge that is perched 140 feet above Lake Stanley. You'll be playing downhill to an island green on this challenging but scenic hole.

Overall…

Course was in solid shape. Some fairways and tee boxes a little rough, but overall not bad. My group had to follow a tournament, so most of the front 9 was not fun. We had to wait on almost every hole from tee to green. Thank goodness they were done at the turn. Speaking of the turn…I had to wait 20-30 minutes to get my food I called in on #9. They had 1 guy trying to help everyone with serving drinks and taking orders. Not ideal when your expecting to run in and get your food so you can get on with your round. After finally getting my food the rest of the round went pretty smooth. #15 lived up to the billing as the signature hole. I would probably play the course again if I came back to Reno, but I’d def ask if there was a tourney that day. For $80 you’d hope a Marshall would be out there moving things along. Solid course, awful pace of play.

early tee off

we teed off at 7:18 to beat the heat. Good idea except they are watering heave while its still cool. First 3 greens were soaked then they started drying out. Had to dodge sprinklers on several fairway shots. Currently all the Reno courses are letting greens grow long so they don't loose them in the heat.

Incomparable scenery and well managed.

Such a beautiful picturesque scenery and well managed course let me almost forget the summer heat of close triple digit temperature. Must come back when the weather goes down to under 80’s. Friendly and professional staff who guided us, the first time players, with kind and with details. The marshal even guided us to the photo spots and took pictures for us. Worth driving the hundreds of miles and money. One of the premier courses in my golf itinerary now. Just fantastic. Thanks GolfNow for letting us play at such as the Lakeridge golf at such a good price.

Great time

Honestly for the price this course was great! Hole 15 is everything that you would hope it would be. I wish there was not as many critters running around and laying droppings on the greens, but it did not take away from the experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Grass is in perfect shape

The course was in great shape. Really loved it. The greens were too fast for their contours, meaning the ball would not stop on an uphill putt and often times end up farther away than when you started - ridiculous, and why I gave a 4 star rather than 5 star rating.

Late day

The problem with twilight here is there is always a slow group....Marshall talked to us twice but evidently not to the two groups ahead of us.....lots of political ads around the course to keep what's left of the range....
