Sunridge Golf Club

We were told when we checked in that only the back was open, & it was just aerated yesterday, so we could play it twice to get in our 18 holes. 3 groups were all on the first (10th) tee box at our starting time, & it took us 4 hrs to finish the round as we waited on every hole.

Showed up at 10:am for an 11:20 tee time and went right on the course. Course was in good shape, the greens were a little spotty but didn't affect your putts, the traps could use more sand though. Loved the layout...front nine lots of water holes and you need a range finder to let you know where the edges of the water are in some instances. The back 9 was a blast!! Water holes and then elevated tees boxes hitting down into canyons or across canyons. Purists probably complain but for a recreational golfer(17 hdcp) it was a lot of fun. Will definitely play here again and bringing some friends with me. It can be windy but we were extremely lucky that day with no wind to speak of. Great course with great rates!!!

The course was in great shape for public course. Front nine was long but not overly difficult. The back nine was challenging and exciting. Great course layout for the area. Actually under priced for the play you get. Clubhouse could stand to be better but staff was Great!!

Lots of water in the valley with some high tee boxes hitting to lower greens in the mountains, especially with 14 open for play. Greens can be challenging and the green's grass can be in poor condition. Management can be stingy with carts and require strangers to ride together when adding individuals to a tee time.

Front nine has a lot of water hazards. Back 9 had big elevation changes. Nice view of valley from 16th hole.

See picture.

Course provides booklet describing each hole. Definitely need rangefinder to avoid water hazard and out of bounds. Need to play for position.

No 19th hole

The greens were rock hard, and the fairways and some of the rough and sand traps were soaked. Strange layout on back nine - four consecutive trips up the hill to elevated tees. Some nice vistas. Nice variety of tees. Woman in pro shop was doing double duty as snack shop person. She handled everything with humor.

I've been playing this course 4 or 5 times a year for the past 5 years. Its too tough for the average golfer, but with my 21 handicap, I can usually score in the low 90's with a couple blow-up holes. I always look forward to going there as its an easy drive from Stateline where I reside. This round on July 25, 2016 was excellent, as I found the greens and fairways in the best condition of the past 2 years, and the 14th hole, which has been out of service for several years has been repaired! With continued excellent maintenance of the fairways and tee boxes, it should get to a five star rating from me.

greeted and felt welcomed right away no rush but bring lots of balls and know where all the water is before hitting

The course has an unusual layout that presents some real challenging holes. I was surprised at the number of water hazards on a desert course. The sand traps on the other hand were in terrible condition.

We play here as often as we can. Staff has always been very helpful and friendly. Course is well maintained. Very challenging course.

The course is fun and well laid out. Unfortunately the course is in rough shape in certain areas and an entire hole has been shut down for quite a while.

Still a nice course, but it could be much better.

Sunridge is always a blast to play! From the ball eating water on most of the first 13 holes to the magnificent mountain top tee boxes and ball eating canyons on the last several holes, it is one of my favorite courses.

As a note, hole 14 was washed out by a thunderstorm and has been out of service for a couple of seasons. There is a bonus hole after 18 that has been put into service to make up for the missing 14.

I would give all 5 stars except the situation with hole #14. It was configured at the top of the hills looking down the whole Carson Valley and it was closed with an unknown reason. It would have been a spectacular playing down the hill after driving up the cart skillfully. Had to be content with hole #19.

I would recommend the course to a player who has single handicap or less.

Perfect weather, friendly staff and the Golfnow value made us very happy and satisfying. It was truly the icing on the cake to celebrate my 78th birthday on July 4th. Yes, it was!!! Thanks a lot, Golfnow.com and the staff at the Sunridge Golf club.

This is my 3rd time playing Sunridge I'm from California. The first time I didn't like the course much, the second time I really enjoyed the course although with #14 closed the most interesting hole on the course it was a long cart ride to #15 tee box. Don't think you'll ever walk here no way unless your a mountain goat! This time when I played the bunkers were unplayable full of water in many and no sand just a light spread of pebbles. It's too bad this is a really nice layout and a challenging course to play with a lot of water. It could be a best of the best for the area I think with a little more care for the course and greens. By the way they do have a #19 hole to play because of #14 being closed.

We have played this course whenever we vacation in Tahoe and really enjoyed it. However, this time it appears they are on the verge of closing up. They have let the entire place fall in to disrepair. Even the parking lot is full of weeds. Most of the sand traps have been abandoned and are full of weeds or standing water. The most challenging hole is completely closed. So sad.

I played Sunridge one day after traveling 300 miles and riding in he car for 6 hours. I seldom play well at the beginning of a trip. I certainly need my yardage marker (GPS).

Sunridge has a lot of intermediate rough which I found before I found my swing. Sunridge also has a few severe tee changes. It was a guessing game to compute the correct yardages. There is too much elevation change to walk tis course.

Sunridge is a challenging but fair lay-out. I will play much better on subsequent rounds when I acquire my swing.

Lots of water...I will say it again.....Lots of WATER. The water makes the course very challenging. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Didnt get to play hole 14 as it was under repair, but they do have a 19th hole (not the bar) which is a par 3. I will be back to play again.

This a challenging and fun course to play with

very friendly staff.

My son and I had a wonderful time at this course. The staff were super nice and friendly. The golf course was really nice, too. Great view of the valley and we will be back again for sure.

I enjoyed the course, greens were good, fairways in good shape but they definitely need to finish the back nine (14th).
