With a course that will challenge golfers of all levels, Wild Creek is also a bonanza for those that love great scenery during their round, as panoramic views of the High Sierras and Reno will be a player's partner for the round.

Fun course with lots of elevation changes

I enjoyed this course, the fairways are in good shape and the greens were rolling nice. The elevation changes make it challenging to determine the right club, which adds to the experience.

Wildcreek, a challenging, but fair golf coursse

I don't necessarily recommend it for regular play, but it's a course that has an interesting layout. The course has some large patchy areas on the fairways, but irrigation can be scanty due to the fact that the course gets it's water from a "ditch" that doesn't always have water in it for irrigation.

The course is a challenging, but fair course.

While challenging, it is quite fair. Because the back nine in cut into the hillside, you tend to have a lot of uneven lies. Playing from the white tees made this a much better experience for 20+ handicappers. The staff at the course were very friendly too.

this course needs starter improvements

we were sent out as a twosome behind a threesome behind a twosome. We made the turn and ended up behind a fivesome as one twosome dropped out. We waited on the next 4 holes to tee off. I finally skipped a hole and continued our round before dusk. I would think some effort would be pairing up foursomes since they would get more rounds in with the days growing shorter.

The course was moderatly challenging

The course was fun to play and offered a variety of challenges. The overall condition of the course was less than expeceted for the price. I have played other courses in the area that were maintained better. It seems to have been some time since they hosted a PGA event.

Great variety

Course was in great shape. Not to many blind shots which I hate. Played very well...I am not a great golfer but had lots of fun despite the challenge of the course. I just teed it up, (white tees).

Better than it looks

Not all that impressed with the signage & 'off piste' condition.
But once into the round found much of the course interesting & testing. The 18th hole needs a little more description, even on the handbook suppied - which was one of the great things about the management of the course.

Too many gimmick holes

Greens were very inconsistent. Too many gimmicky holes, ESP. 11 & 18. Very hilly terrain. I m a 17 hcp. And I did not shoot anything close to that.

Best feature: very close to downtown Reno.

Municipal Course

Greens in great shape, but rest of course needs attention. Not a great driving range, but did have one. Older carts. At one time this was probably a beautiful course. Has some interesting holes, but also some quirky holes. Price was cheap, so didn't expect much.

Have played this course many times

I have purchased a membership to this golf course in the past. With what Golfnow has to offer i may never buy a membership again and always play using Golfnow at the prices they have to offer. I am able to play great courses at a reduced rate. What can be better than that?

Nice layout but needs some TLC

Landscaping and maintenance around clubhouse and practice area needs improvement (would make a much better first impression if a little work was put into this aspect of the course presentation).
