About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6914 yards
Slope 137
Rating 72.5

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.

One of the best

One of the best courses in the area. Challenging, with lakes, hills and elevation changes, easy greens, difficult greens, it’s got it all. Course layout is excellent.

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.

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!

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.

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.
