Sierra/Comstock at Empire Ranch Golf Course
About
The Sierra/Comstock Course is one of three 18-hole combinations provided by the three individual nines at Empire Ranch Golf Course. Nestled in the scenic Carson Valley, Empire Ranch features 27 holes of golf that overlook the Carson River. Although the golf courses have a seemingly secluded location rolling along dramatic bluffs, they are actually only minutes from downtown Carson City. Sierra/Comstock features smooth, fast greens and tight fairways, but the layout is forgiving enough for players of all skill levels to enjoy. Empire Ranch, in addition to the three courses, offers a full practice complex with a 300-yard driving range and a teaching facility that offers personalized instruction for all skill levels.

Ok for the price
Greens are overall pretty nice as are some fairways and most of the rough. Some fairways are almost unplayable in many areas so to make it more enjoyable we moved our tee shots to the closest grass area for the approach shot.
Excellent course!!! Super friendly staff, wider fairways, easy getting in. Highly recommend!!!
Five stars! A great course with an amazing value!!!!
A surprise
I had heard negative things about this course but found it to be in decent shape and the price was excellent. It is well-marked and the fairways are in pretty good shape.
Very good greens
Although a lot of the fairways are being reseeded and marsh like conditions in the fairways persist, the greens are in great shape. Worth a day out.
Lots of Potential
Lot of water damage from flooding, could be a gem, but needs some TLC
Under Const
Lot of roped off fairways, dried up water crossing fairways and muddy conditions. Pretty rough shape. Some holes were great, most were marginal and a few were poor.
They are doing a lot of work but it needs so much work,it will take months!
Goat track
Beat to crud. Half of the course was under repair, same as two years ago when I played here last. Great fairway shots would stop in the loose dirt that the fairways were composed of.
Terrible
The course was in the worst shape I have ever seen it in. The fairways were basically nonexistent. Not entirely sure you can call this a golf course in the state it is in.
Great course.
It’s definitely in winter shape, but oh well this is a great course and really fun to play. I’ll play it again and again.
Excellent Round
Weather was perfect and course was in good condition.
Great course
Third time playing this course. It’s a lot of fun especially for beginners that aren’t afraid of losing some balls. Sister in law got her first Eagle on a par 5! Made the outing awesome for sure
Duplicate golf course name
I have no review of the course as my reservation was for a different course with same name. I did not realize this until I arrived at the clubhouse to check in. I called the course with the wrong reservation and canceled the tee time. They were understanding, but referred me back to Golf Pass for reimbursement. Golf Pass refused the credit and the customer service number would not allow me to talk to live support . At this point someone has been paid for a round not played. Golf Pass should at least credit me for the amount charged to a future round. A response (other than a canned response) from Golf Pass would be appreciated.
