Course in Absolute Disaray
The course has no irrigation and you are playing on fairways that are dirt, dry grass and rocks. There are fairways that are under construction and really not playable. This place is under staffed, poorly maintained, no matter what there apology is that us posted on the door. No one should be charged to play here and it should be closed until it is ready to resume it's original condition. Do not recommend that anyone plays here.
Called management, but no response. Never finished back 9. Just a mess.
Sometimes you’re the bug sometimes you’re the windshield
The golf course at Lake Tahoe is very hard very narrow fairways water in spots on the fairways perform a creek very challenging course
Chilly morning in South Lake
I play the course every spring as part of a media group. It's never in prime shape that early in the season (nobody's fault but Mother Nature). It was drier than normal and the greens were good. The fairways are always patchy with some rough spots. The setting without homes and the beautiful holes that interact with the river make up for any shortcomings.
Course in bad condition!
Course in Bad shape, fairway were terrible and green were just as bad. Need some warm weather
Rainy but good!
It rained off and on during the round but didn’t dampen our golf spirits. The course is recovering well from winter for their busy summer season. The greens had been punched recently but were in reasonably good shape. Fairways still a little patchy but a patch of good grass was always nearby. Rough was a little high and challenging. With snow still on the granite outcrops above the course, it was spectacular and always reminded you where you were. All a round excellent day.
UNSAFE FOR WOMEN
NOT SAFE FOR WOMEN!!!! Would have given 0 if allowed. Attended this course today for a quick 9 hole game with my husband. I usually caddy and drive the cart for him. Everything was going smoothly, until the 7th. I should have read the previous reviews on here about staff having issues with females. Husband noted one of the course staff had been following us and staring our way while smoking a cigarette, wearing a black beanie and sunglasses.
We drove across to our next tee off, and this staff member followed us. We were unsure if they wanted to talk or explain something to us, but they never approached even when we made eye contact so we continued our round.
As my husband went off to tee the 7th, this staff member approached me and began to yell aggressively. He had waited until my husband and I were separated to do this. He shouted that we had missed a sign that said to turn right, multiple times while approaching my cart. I was scared as this man was very aggressive and clearly had tried to catch me alone. I apologised for the error and drove quickly back to my husband. He followed until he saw my husband approach and backed off.
Other reviews on here seem to say the same things about an aggressive male staff member making women uncomfortable and even downright scared. We made a complaint to the assistant manager as it was Sunday and they said they couldn't do anything because this person's boss was not here!!! We should have called the police.
As we were leaving, we saw this staff member drive past in his caddy with a hose on the back and stare down our vehicle in the car park as we left.
We live near this course and never thought we'd have to experience something like this. We have asked a senior managed to call us, but by the looks of previous reviews nothing will be done about it. Ladies - Give this course a HUGE miss, dangerous behaviour that is tolerated apparently by management. I will never return.

Getting better and better
The course is in very good shape this year, I’m glad management addressed the up-side down cup system versus the stirofom inset they are currently using (helpful hint, they should cut the stirofom down a couple of inches more so the ball doesn’t bounce out at times which happened in a Men’s Club event a couple of weeks ago)
Scenic
First time playing the course and it was great. Challenging but not overwhelming for people who shoot in the 80’s and low 90’s (which I do). Walkable course also. Shout out to a local who played in our group for the course advice.
Great course
First time golfing there. My husband and I enjoyed it. Staff was very friendly. Definitely will golf there again
Average golf course
Good layout. Average green condition. Fair putting green condition. Golf amenities were prepared for COVID-19.
I book on Golfnow and an entry error was made should have been a 2 some at 1:40 on Saturday the 6th. When I received my confirmation it was for Friday the 5th. Could not change with the automated system with Golfnow. Called the course and they had zero interest in trying to help me. The time on Sat was still open and they could have easily helped me. Unfortunately no help form Golfnow nor the course so will have to dispute with my cred card and my son and I will have to find a more accommodating place to play.
