Rating 78.1

Founded in 1917, Washoe Golf Course is the oldest golfing facility in Reno. The layout has small greens and tree-lined fairways, but the fairways are wide and flat making them fairly forgiving. There are water hazards and bunkers strategically placed throughout. The mature landscape is carefully maintained with an elaborate sprinkler system that ensures that the course is green and ready for play all year round. Washoe Golf Course also has PGA Professionals on staff to help with individual or group instruction and extensive practice facilities that include a generous putting green, driving range, and a chipping area with practice bunker.

Still the same

I play this now and then, it's convient. It is a low end muni course and all that implies. Greens are slow and bumpy. Dirt not sand in the traps. Lacking basic matainence.

Greens in great shape. Fairways poor in several spots. Tee boxes overall in good condition. A couple fairways overwatered. They were soggy. Going from green to next tee very confusing. This was my 1st time to play this course. I found it very lacking in sign direction to next hole. I am 81+ years in age. My handicap has dramatically in the past 10 yrs. Was a +10 but now most likely a +25 or more.

Staff are unfriendly, and people that play there are jack wagons.

Staff had chips on their shoulders, and the people that play there either have no idea what they are doing or are just jack wagons almost got ran over by lawn maintenance person just being an jack wagon. some jack wagon took my ball twice, both times balls in fairway turned my back for a second to help out another golfer and "F" er took off with ball. Sounds funny but if i would caught him oh yeah tee time. will not ever go back to this course they got my cash on this round but they will not get any more.

This course needs a new grounds keeper

The greens were below average.

The fairways were shaggy and in places completely barren of turf.

The rough was usually just dirt.

Whun of the rattiest golf courses I have ever played.

The restaurant had very good food but they refuse to wait on the outdoor tables.
