Washoe Golf Course
About
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.

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.
Course is currently fixing issues
A lot of the course was still under repair, but I would assume that’s normal for being April and getting ready for summer. Lots of people out there but pace of course was awesome.
Early season Sunday
Busy, but play was not slowed. Great to see so many young golfers, lessons for the juniors, many ladies and 19th hole open and busy.
Course still needs some healing but for early spring conditions is in good condition especially the greens. Great day to enjoy sun, friends and getting the golf swing back in shape.
This course has a very friendly locals feel.
Check in was easy. Bathrooms were very clean. We were paired up with two other players. They were very friendly and enjoyable to play with. They are regulars and made us feel welcome.
Great day for golf!
Washoe is showing signs of improvements, good to see traps and grass being taken care of, keep up the work!
Great course
For a course in the city it’s well maintained, even with its high volume run thru.
Great day for golf!
Washoe looks alot better than last year. There doing repairs and it's showing. Keep it up lots of history at that course!
Poor
I can’t say anything positive about Washoe right now. The fairways, albeit still dormant, are in terrible condition. There is ground under repair everywhere you look, with no sign of improvement.. The kicker was they had just airated the greens the previous couple days and there was no warning either from the course or GolfPass.
