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.

Too Wet and Too Slow!

Love this course but it's being over-watered and we were waiting on a slow threesome the entire round - on a quiet Tuesday. 4 1/2 hours when it should have been far less than 4 hours. Where were the course marshals?

Nov golf

Beautiful day, pace of play was horrible. Course was over watered, greens were in great shape. Shouldn’t be watering fairways if sprinklers don’t shut off, kinda hard to hit 2nd shot when you can’t get to your ball. It was a nice day, but 3some in front of us needs to learn to play ready golf and aware of other people behind you!

2023-11-13 Beautiful Day at LakeRidge

Our threesome had a great day! Temps hit the mid-60s in the PM. Greens were soft with some tough pin placements. We all made it onto the island green with our first tee shots! Enjoy playing LakeRidge every year!

Great day on a great course!

Have always loved Lakeridge and we lucked out with perfect weather. Like that they now have the practice net near the first tee.

Fun course in very good shape. Greens didn’t seem fast but they had movement and every comebacker was at least 3 feet. Good challenge, with lots of water hazards. Pace of play is on the slow side.

Windy weather

Goose poop

Beside geese being everywhere and their droppings everywhere, the course was in great shape. It had just rained the night before so the ground was damp. IT was cold 55 High and windy. I didn't see a drink cart the whole day, on the plus side I didn't see a Marshal either. Very few players out there but it seemed the other players were playing random holes. We did stop in the bar on the turn and how some delicious bloodys!

Overpriced

It was definitely not $100 on a golf but that’s what I paid anyways. Pace of play was dreadful and I’ve heard that five hours is considered a quick round out there. We were at 5 1/2.

Playing conditions were just fair, but the greens were actually nice. The rest of the course could definitely use some work.

I would not go back

Very green with lots of trees!

This course is usually very green and shady. They water a lot to keep everything healthy but sometimes the overwatering leaves it a bit wet. There was a wedding so the grill was only offering hot dogs and premade sandwiches, both of which were reminiscent of “gas station” food.

We did see the beverage cart twice which was good. The staff was friendly and helpful. The greens were slow and tricky to find the speed. Overall a good experience but not what what we remembered from past experiences.
