Nakoma Golf Resort - Dragon Course

Amazing club house. The workers are friendly and nice. The restaurant is top notch.

The golf course is a disaster. Way to many blind shots. Greens that slope away in multiple directions. I was warned from a scratch golfer to avoid it. I was frustrated and can honestly say it was the most frustrating round i've ever played. They should stop maintaining the course and turn it into an 18 hole walk/hike. Sadly wont be back. Waste of a trip from Tahoe.

Glad I didn’t pay full price. Even at a lower rate the course still wasn’t worth it. Greens and even fairways were in poor condition.

This review is for the golf course only.

What an incredible visual layout and a very fair test of golf. Plenty of strategy needed depending on what tees you select and enough variety to keep it super interesting, there was only one hole that was "meh" in my opinion. Played some forward tees since it was a new track and had fun with wedges and short irons on approaches. Pick up a yardage guide at the pro shop (wish I had) to get a better advantage since not everything is as it meets the eye. Some absolutely stunning views here, just incredible to be so high up and watch tee shots sail into cloudy mountain backdrops. Course conditions are good but some greens had bare spots (rough winter?). Greens not overly penal but enough break to make you double check the read. Fairways and tees were good, bunkers can be thin. Can't wait to get back here again as soon as I can. Worth the price in my opinion

Gorgeous course. Harder than anything else I've played.

The Dragon lives up to its name. Beautiful scenery. Lots of variety in elevation and layout. Quite challenging for a recreational golfer but still absolutely fun to play. Staff and resort are superb.

This course was in excellent shape after a record winter. However, the layout of this course was terrible. Most tee shots you are hitting to a blind landing area. The scorecard provides suggestions on how to play the hole, but the suggestions are vague and assume the average driver is 200 yards off the tee. One hole suggestion was along the lines of “if you hit your drive too long you will be in a difficult position”. The difficult position is a ravine and a dropped ball penalty. To help players I suggest rewriting the hole suggestions completely with suggested landing distances and distance to hazards. I also suggest carts with the hole layout and GPS so you have a better idea of the blind landing zone. Overall, not worth the price.

Be sure you take you bug spray on this course. The course had a nice pace to it at 6AM. Some holes were more difficult than others, would come and play again with friends or family. Greens were in good shape.

Great views of the Indian river long fairways and manicured bunkers. would recommend a around to anyone

Excellent course very Challenging excellent condition

Only 1 negative ….. too many sand traps were like wet cement.. packed wet sand- not good.

Other course is as good as ever.

Beautiful golf course! Nice layout. A lot of elevation changes. Getting late in the season, some tees were punched. No water bucket for your towel on the first tee. Greens are fast and putt true. But be mindful of the pitch. Sand traps were hard and hardly any loose sand in them.

We will be back next Summer.

Great layout. This is the best shape that I have seen it in. It is a must play. Almost perfect. Just needs a little More TLC.

Great day, challanging but very fun course. Excellent condition with beautiful views. Had to resist using the driver because of the tight fairways, but not a problem

The course is almost in great condition. It is much better than it has been in the last few years. I am sure it will be great next year. Awesome layout.

Staff were great. Layout is fun with picturesque holes. Greens were shaggy and bumpy, many with fungus patches. Most bunkers were hardpan. Would be superb course if greens and the many bunkers were maintained.
