Sunridge Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Located justhalf-hour drive from both Lake Tahoe and Reno, Sunridge Golf Club features monster holes and mammoth lakes. The 669-yards par 5 11th - the longest hole in the scenic High Sierras region and then some - draws your attention as soon as you look at the scorecard. But the 26 acres of water on the golf course will probably provide more challenge and thrills.
There's also a hole with a 300-foot drop from the tee to the fairway (No. 14), a tiny par 3 19th bet-decider hole and a ton of driveable par 4s that almost beg for you to go for it. As a bonus, Sunridge Golf Club's green fees wow many vacationers used to Tahoe pricing.

Neat course - but a little rough on conditions
Course layout is nice and fun. Driving range ball machine empty, sand traps half to 3/4 full of growing vegetation. Greens in good shape. Fairways in good shape. No beverage cart
It' has improved.
Haven't played here for 3 years so noticed a marked improvement in course conditions. I enjoy playing this quirky layout when visiting the area.
Bunkers need attention
Greens are in very good condition, roll slower than expected. Fairways just ok. Bunkers are terrible.
A suprise gem
It is tought to get a full feel of a course the first time you play it. Usully the first time is jsut survival, the second time is, yeah I remember that and the third time is, Yeah, I got this. I really look forward to going back and playing here again.
Note: No way do you want to walk this course ... you would have to be a cross between a mountain goat and a Napalian Sherpa to attempt to walk the back 9.
Best golf ever
We played with another local couple which was very helpful. The starter quietly moved people around to put us with a very nice couple. Big hills and greens you cant see from the t box. We learned a new term: aiming stick (we call them yardage markers). Aiming sticks were great to aim for when you could not see the green. Beautiful views and another thing I had not seen before a 19th hole that is not a bar. They have a play off hole. #19. Great time on the links!
Golf
Staff was very friendly, got us out on the course as soon as we arrived. Didn't have to get paired up with anyone else. Course was I great shape. Will for sure be back to play again!!
Better than expected
This course has three types of golf in a single round. Links style, traditional style, and mountain style. Great fun! Birdied the 19th 'playoff' hole.
Different
Course is two courses in one. I love the course. My buds like it but think the the back nine is tough, that's what I like about it. Beautiful views on the back,front too. Noy busy only 4 groups per hour, love that too. Cart paths are the best and course is kept up extremely well. Play this course.
Must play!
Golf course becoming much more playable. Challenging for all skill levels. Greens are getting better and grass is starting to grow. Shot my best score there thanks to golf course being in good shape.
Call first
Well,
Sunridge is a fun course. However this time had some issues. We booked the tee time 2 weeks in advance. When we showed for our tee time we were informed that the back nine was closed due to aeration. We could play the front 9 twice for a reduced rate. But...... we were not told that not only had the greens on the front nine recently been aerated and sanded, but the sanding was done with what appeared to be gravel!!!! When We inquired as to why we were not notified of the conditions, we were told the notice was on Golf now. We did not receive that notification until 90 minutes after the start of our round!!!!!!
So call first
Good condition for season - always interesting round on unique course
this is a unique layout. front nine is mostly straight forward with some challenging holes and quite a bit of water. playing with someone who knows course is benefit. back nine start with a number of water challenging holes. then, up into the hills with huge elevation changes and distance control at a premium. greens range from relatively flat to multi-tiered. in early April, they are rather slow, but did run true. in summer, they tend to be quick and true. a few of the back tee boxes are no longer in use, but still a fun course to play.
