Nestled at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Toiyabe Golf Club (formerly known as Thunder Canyon Country Club and Lightning "W" Ranch Golf Course.) has a picturesque landscape of shimmering lakes, meandering streams, and towering pines. This course has a traditional layout that features contoured fairways and fast, generous greens. There are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and water comes into play on 14 holes. Elevated tees provide spectacular views of Mt. Rose and Slide Mountain. The golf course is challenging but still player-friendly with seven sets of tees. In addition to the course, Toiyabe Golf Club also offers practice facilities that include chipping and sand practice areas along with an expansive putting green.

5.5 Hour Saturday morning round

Title says it all. They will say it was a frost delay but really it was poor marshaling. 2 somes out there, 5 somes, open course in front of the lead group. Duncan stacks their tee times too close

Grounds crew is doing a stella job, course looks/played great for early season. Weather was great but the pace really hampered the morning

This is one of my favorite courses in Reno area. I was connected with three men in there mid thirties. They were very slow ( talking and not ready to hit there next shot ) and weren't concerned about anyone else. I quit after 8 holes.

quick round

For this time of year the greens were in very good condition. spring has just stared so the course showed some winter ware. Tee boxes were in good shape, fairways rolled good. Three of us finished in 4 hrs, I like that. Always enjoy Toiyabe, even though it is a somewhat difficult course. the mountain views are wonderful.

Other Than the...

wind, this course is terrific. I was literally blown off the course my first two times playing it and didn't get to the back nine. This time I was almost all alone the entire round and got to play the back nine. It's nestled in trees and is quite lovely. Lots of water on this course and lots of wind. I will definitely play again but only when the wind is tolerable...

Great winter course conditions

Played this course after recent storms. While there were wet areas and carts weren’t allowed, the course was in great shape and played fair. I enjoyed walking the course, which provided a different perspective than the normal, cart golf.

I’ll be back to enjoy this course again as well as the 19th hole!

Thanks to everyone there for an enjoyable round.
