Sierra/Comstock at Empire Ranch Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Good Winter Golf!
It's winter right now but the greenskeepers are pretty good at keeping the course in playable condition. There was a frost delay but once everyone got on the course the pace of play was very good. We finished in just over 3 hours. There are several places that need reseeding and they have reseeded some areas and marked them well. Overall a good value.
Worst course in Carson
Terrible staff! the starter (I believe his name was Tom) older gentleman was extremely rude and irritable. Duo got to skip the line cause they “knew the owner” pace of play was thrown off and blamed every other group. Course conditions were terrible in September and greens were filled with duck feces. If you havent tried this course I would say don’t. Hard to even give it 1 star.
Staff was extremely helpful and nice!
First time playing this course and it was a lot of fun. Some patchiness on the fairways, but course website noted they were Re-seeding some areas so it was expected going in. Greens were great and course was a great afternoon.
Course conditions
Course is not in good shape. Greens are pretty good, considering. Price was fair for course conditions. If you bump the ball, you can play it. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend for the price.
Very rough conditions.
Course has not recovered from flooding 2 years ago. There is a lot of bare areas on the fairways which (looks like they haven't received any attention). Cart paths could use some work. Greens are good though.
Great for quick spur of the moment golf.
Nice employees. Fairways very rough with too much 'waste area', even in the fairways. Several bunkers were just dirt. 80% of the greens were in good shape, and surprisingly challenging and subtle. 20% were in less than good shape, but not in bad shape. It is a good bargain. It's the only links type course, with hard and fast fairways that give you extra yards, that I've found in the area.
It was a great day with friends and everything was excellent
Fun course
Love the layout!
Put us behind z group oh high school girls. Took forever.
What’s going on ???
The greens were in great condition.
However, the fairways were wet, muddy and dirt instead of grass! It was impossible to hit the ball well off of mud or dirt. This is a beautiful location and a nice layout.
They need to work to get all of the “area under repair “ REPAIRED quickly!!
