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.

Golf course experience

Happens to be in Tahoe in cold season and courses is close. I played in Sunridge 30 mins away and enjoy golfing with this course. Very challenging course and expectacular golf experience. I will be back again.

Hole marks and friendly staff

We all know that there is a lot of lazy golfers, but if you could fix the large ball marks on the greens, that would be great.!! I helped yesterday and like I always do by fixing about 1-3 on each green. Your staff is fantastic, thank you!

OVERALL POOR CONDITIONS

Have not been here in a few months, sadly I remember why after the round. Overall maintenance of the course is weak at best. Most of the tee boxes are uneven and the tee boxes many without any green grass or in some cases just dirt.

Many tee areas have markers missing or are broken.

Trash cans when available, were over flowing.

The staff are all very nice but they clearly lack a budget or staff to maintain much less improve playing conditions.

Very sad as the course has an interesting layout with great variety on the holes. The greens are maintained better that the overall condition of the course.

Probably will not be back until improvements are made. Sad....

Look elsewhere

This track is a complete waste. Pace of play, weeds/dandelions, along with various poor tee box/fairway/green conditions make this place a clear fail. This coming from someone that only paid $16 to play there and I still feel I was ripped off. Not recommended by this guy.

Tale of two nines

Played after a big rainstorm and staff had the course cleaned up and playable. Front nine is a classic layout, great design, back nine is a little bit Disneyland. Course is not walkable because of a few huge elevated tee boxes.

Mixed feelings

Great Layout, but what’s up with the back 9 fairway conditions?

For $73 (morning tee time on a Wednesday), I was expecting better conditions.

And why no drinking water available on the course?
