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.

GREAT VALUE!

Had a great experience

I started playing as a single and 2 groups of foursomes in front of me were amazing and let’s me play through really fast. These 2 groups had great golf etiquette! And then I bunked into another single and played together, another great positive experience m, this gentleman was great! And we played great!

I was somewhat disappointed with the course conditions. I've played there for many years and I've seen the course in much better shape. The green on number 11 was horrible. Also, the cart paths are in need of attention.

No water coolers or drink cart so stock up before you go out on the course. Also there’s no yardage stakes if you don’t have a range finder it’s all guesswork.

Good muni

Twosome and fast play. 3:50 round was great. Fast greens, but not overly firm. Not much scenery, but Good value!

Soso

Course was just ok flat kinda boring every hole front of the green was totally soaked overwatered pace was terribly slow they allowed an 8some which is just ridiculous I lasted to the13th hole I was already 51/2 hours into the round the only positive I found was the greens where in good condition. If you want to practice or just swing the clubs then yeah but I won’t be back

Hi hum round

Course was in terrible condition in front of every green. It was soaking wet. The pace was terrible. We had to 8some in front of us. Fairways at most look like a goat farm patchy everywhere is very flat, not too challenging kind of boring even I guess a good place to practice your game just from the green thing I gotta say The putting surface was really nice I don’t think I’ll ever come back unless it was free

The Shoe

This is my first time playing the course and overall it was a pretty straightforward and good course for the money. There were several spots in the fairways and around the greens that were either too wet or needing resodding. Fortunately, I did not go into any bunkers, but a good refreshing with new sand is definitely needed. The greens put great! The layout of the back nine I enjoyed the most, but the front wasn’t bad either. I’ll definitely go back and play it again!

Not worth 55$

Every time I come to this course they are extremely wet and have people all over working. Get that done early. Also your pace of play is awful. No one is monitoring the speed. The grounds keeper was literally spraying g the green as we were putting. Easily the worst corse in Reno.
