LakeRidge Golf Course
About
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.

Overbooked on Weekends
Had a group of 7 playing two foursomes ahead of us, No Marshall in site or on the course even after we called, skipped by the 2 foursomes and the 7 on one hole and then caught up to another threesome with-in a hole, No one told us about the sanded greens before booking, Weather was Great
Great Layout and close by
I had made my tee time on Golf Now. I arrived early for my 1:45 time. The pro shop told me if I wanted I could go to the tee and go because the tee was clear. There I paired up with another early arrival and we played 18 in a little over 3 hours, great for a public course. The course is in good shape for early spring. It's and old course which is nice, because it's not tricked up like a lot of new ones. The greens had just been sanded and punched but played well. The course must be a haven for geese for there is a lot them and you know what that means!! There's also a lot of marmots but not a problem. The 15th par 3 is the signature hole for LakeRidge with it's island green. Overall, I have always enjoyed this course.
enjoyed this coarse
Booked tee time on the internet, golf now and had a very good day of golf on this coarse. played from the green tees. the staff that takes care of the coarse really did a great job of bringing the coarse back after the winter season. greens were plugged and sanded and still rolled very well. had a great time. was able to keep the same ball through the full 18 hole round. tee boxes were in great shape for this early into spring. and fairways were in great shape as well. the price to play this coarse was very reasonable. will return for another round of golf at Lake ridge.
Classic Layout
Was unaware of this property and course but understand it has been around for over 50 years! Found via GolfNow and pleased I did. The staff was very friendly and I was paired up with an elderly individual, Darwin, who has been playing the course every year since it opened. He only enjoyed 9 holes but was a real joy. Remaining partner was a very competent player and a colleague of his joined for the back. So, as a threesome, found the entire round to be enjoyable and fulfilling. Will always keep this course in mind for when I am connecting or overnighting in Reno in the future.
Challenging course
Nice course with lots of challenges. The round was very slow.
Excellent course for this time of year!
Course was in great shape and condition for this time of year here in Northern Nevada! Having played this course in the Spring and Summer I know how amazing a condition it will be in and I'm excited to play it! Best overall course in town!
Favorite in Reno
Most all things good. Starter let us putt and chip a little past our T Time as those behind us we not yet to the tee. We were 2 and it allowed some space between us and the 4some ahead. 4some did let us through on the par 3, we then caught 2 couples on 8-9 (very slow). We skipped 10 and had a delightful pace for the entire backside. Course condition would have received 5 stars if way most of the goose dropping had been cleared.
Tough Greens
This course was in great shape despite the time of year. My only complaint about the condition would be the amount of goose feces all over. It is a mature old course, with a classic design. Several holes are very memorable and challenging.The greens are undulating and irregular. Very tricky. I would say that this is a must play for any person playing golf in the Reno area. A member of my foursome actually lost a rangefinder all playing. The entire staff set out to find it for him,and they did. Great service.
LakeRidge GC Reno January 2015
The undulation provided a ruin left-right challenge. Initially, the pace of play was poor because they overbooked. On the back 9, it cleared up. There are some nice views of the mountain range. The local terrain makes it difficult if you hit OB...bring a few extras. Overall, fun day, nice folks, and good value.
Great 15th hole
You will enjoy this course no matter what you skill level. They do there best to keep the geese off the fairways, but watch your step.
Sactowns Reno round
Nothing like golf in the fall. Paired with a couple of nice guys who played pretty well which made the pace of play fast. The greens and fairways overall were nice (geese left "calling cards" here and there) but no complaints. But what made it for me was the staff. Professional and friendly with a cheerful attitude! I can't wait to get back to Lakeridge!
Fun winter round
I really enjoyed my round. The course was in as good a condition as can be expected for winter.
A course I have played numerous times
The course was in overall good condition considering we are in the late Fall season. The course was somewhat messy due to the resident geese.
Super slow play
Lakeridge is a nice course but the management overbooks the course which means that 18 holes of golf will take you almost 6 hours to play.
Lakeridge
I golfed on thanksgiving, it was a beautiful day,on a beautiful course in beautiful condition. They changed my tee time to a 10 o'clock shot gun so everyone could spend time with their families. The staff was very nice, and we had a wonderful day.
Overall course
It is an excellent course and surrounding homes add to the overall landscape.
Our of the Reno area courses I have played it is the best.
Fun at the island green
The 3rd time I've played here the people are always very nice and the course was a lovely challenge fast greens but holes not too long maki g par possible
Great course, but ...
As most courses time of year, the greens were sanded. However, these greens were over-sanded. I've never seen this much sand on greens in my 25+ years of playing golf. It was like putting in a sand trap!
wrong day to play
I bought my tee time not knowing only the back nine was opened! Wouldn't mind except the back nine was unplayable! I understand course maintenance but a heads up before you buy would have been nice!
I was duped
They closed the back 9, which is the best part of the course. No mention of closure when I purchased the tee time.
