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.

Nice muni
Fun course. Most fairways wide enough to feel comfortable. A few holes on the back nine are very long. Greens are in great shape. Fairways not so much. $30-40 course at most.
Better
Played it earlier before COVID Hit and course was not in good shape. Much better now, very impressed.
Devin the bomber
Fun track. After reading the history of the course tons more respect for it. Old school. Greens pretty good. Drink cart would’ve been nice. Otherwise cool to know I smashed the ball on the same course as Hogan!
Course needs attention
The golf course has some interesting holes, but the course needs some serious attention. I understand the corona virus has compromised some things, but there are large areas that have no grass on them and the cart paths have numerous pot holes with water in them. The sand traps have not been raked in days and the greens are slow, but in good condition. It need serious work before I would play it again.
Slow Day
Since Covid lots more golfers out there.. Need a Marshall.. Pace of play is bad
Great views
Nice course for the price. Open layout for the novice player. Could use a little more signs to the next hole for the new people to the course. Enjoyed my round!
Fantastic
We had a fabulous day. The course was in great condition and the instructions given amid the Covid Pandemic were easy to follow and understandable. I was just super excited to be out playing.
Great Fun
Really enjoyed my day! Fairways and greens lush and pretty. Greens a little thick, but muni course they don't want the golfer having to make a lot of putts. Played with a couple of ladies who were having issues hitting the ball straight, putting and chipping. They asked for help, and we had a mini golf clinic and made some suggestions. Back nine, play was great for all, had a terrific time on a really old school coursr!.
Cold day with wind!
Had a great time playing with my son, we will be back for sure!!
Great course especially for the price
Course was great. The overall layout is pretty simple and very open. I went in the winter on a pretty windy day but still had a lot of fun. The price was unbeatable since I found it as a "hot deal".
A ton of History
Washoe Golf Course is a nice challenge with small greens and is one of the oldest courses in Nevada.
It used to host PGA events back in the day when Hogan, Sneed, and Demerit played.
