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.

Sunridge

This is perhaps my favorite course from Reno to Carson. It’s challenging, has great views and is never too crowded.

I try to play it once a month. Conditions are what they are due to the cold winter. Even better in the summer.

Beautiful Day at Sun Ridge

It was a big day in Carson City. The course was in good condition considering it is February in the Sierra’s.

Greens are fast. The course has several fun and challenging holes. Lots of water hazards but they were frozen most of the day. For $22.00 it is well worth it.

Friendly and scenic

Staff greets you with a smile and is professional and courtesy. The course spans over a wide open front nine, then tightens up and plays into the hills towards the later half of the back nine. The round need not end a stalemate at this course, a tie-breaking nineteenth hole is provided. The course is challenging yet reasonable, the views are awesome and the staff is approachable. For the rate of play and the rate to play balance here. All-and-All,, I score Sunridge with a respectable 5/10. overall and a local rating of 7/10.
