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.

Beautiful views, challenging course

The course was very challenging for a 15 handicap. Lots of elevation changes and water to deal with. When you finish you feel like you've accomplished something. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Great find in Minden/Carson area

Course has undergone some nice changes. Great looking track. Challenging from the get go. Enjoyable round, but too bad for the recent storm damage. Forced to play Front 9 twice. Still worth it and will be back! :-D

Support this course

Great track. I don't know why it's so cheap! I hope it gets enough play to survive. The green fees should be higher in my opinion ,but I'm not complaining.

Fairways 14-17, great features

These 4 fairways are great. All four are high up a mountain with 100ft or more drops. This is an awesome course. The weather was warm with a nice cool breeze. This is our second time here and it wont be the last. We vacation to South Lake Tahoe and it is worth every penny to travel here to play. We had plenty of time to play, no rush, and everyone is spread out so no need to hurry.

What a ride !!!

Don't even think about walking this course, Many of the holes are breathtaking and include steep elevation changes. Lots of fun, friendly helpful staff, Great vista's and challenging from all tee's.
Fairways not country club condition but very playable. Rough was long but fair. Some traps
are being allowed to return to nature and not
maintained, others were fine.

Awesome design, rough fairways

The layout of this course is amazing. Very challenging, lots of elevation changes and lots of water. The only negative is the condition of the fairways. It was like playing at Kiley Ranch in Spanish Springs. Hard in some area and very muddy in others. I wouldn't say all 18 were in bad conditions. Just 1/3 of the holes. Overall I really liked the course. Very friendly staff and fairly quick play. Oh and there were a few holes where we had to walk up a steep flight of stairs. Might not be great for some seniors.

under appreciated, great bargain golf

fun course, great value! 14-18 are jaw dropping. lots of carry shots. definitely target golf, but so much fun!

the only negative is the limited amenities (no beer cart, limited food and beverage at spartan clubhouse/pro shop trailer).

I almost hate to recommend it as the current pace of play is about 3 1/2 hours!

Great Course!

This is a great course! Open play, challenging holes and very challenging greens. Conditions are excellent and the design offered enough change of pace holes to keep me guessing. This is the second course I've played in Carson City and is now first on my list! Well done...

course blew me away

Beautiful course, when we arrived the clubhouse guys were not very customer friendly, no course info. Once out on the course all good except for the increasing wind (Play Early!!) There were some holes that had blind shots, so you had to guess where to hit then hope for the best. All in all fun time.

Fun course but watch your time of day to play

We played starting at around 1PM. The wind was too challenging and apparantly everyone but us knows that in the afternoon, the winds in the Carson Valley are better suited for windsurfing than for golf. Course employees are very friendly and they do everything within their power to make this a positive experience.
Play this course in the morning before the winds pick up.

Windy day

Afternoon winds make a challenging course TOO challenging. The course is in decent condition . The layout is very different with many holes being in the hills with big downhill drops on the drives. Not a lot of room for error or recovery from an errant shot.

Nice Day at Sunridge

The course was in good condition. The greens were rolling pretty true. The course has some unusual hole designs. A bit of a "Caddyshack 2" feel to some of the holes. Also the bunkers are extremely rocky. It would be nice if they gave some attention to them. Saying that though, I will keep coming back.

Sunridge Disaster

Booked on line for $15.00, upon arrival was informed that this was the 9 hole price and i we wanted to play 18 we would have to pay $25.00 extra each. While booking no where did this say it was only for 9 holes.
The course is poorly marked, greens are not respected by the local golfer, ball marks not repaired and scuffed turf.
Staff was arrogant!

Bring your A game!

I'm not PGA material, or even close really, but wow this course seemed tough. We played on a windless clear day all setting were perfect and course was in near top shape. We all seemed to lose a few balls throughout the day. With huge water traps and blind holes if you don't bring your A game, you might be searching in the brush as well!

Mountain Goat

This course is fun, but make sure you bring your walking shoes! Many holes are cart path only. There is quite a bit of water and very hilly terrain. Make sure you bring extra balls!
