Beautiful scenery all around

I was paired up with a couple locals, Suzie and Mark. A great friendly couple who showed me everything I needed to know at each tee box. I thoroughly enjoyed every hole and their company. Great value for the money.

7 hour round

If you have 7 hours plus patience this is the place to play. Admittedly it is beautiful but after waiting 1/2 hours at each tee box it too gets old.

Beautiful

Excellent Course for the money, beautiful scenery everywhere, my only suggestion would be carry a can of bug spray for the mosquitoes when you get to the holes close to the swamps. They attack pretty viciously.

Loved it !

This course was a pleasant surprise.

Ive been going to Tahoe my whole life and always drove by this course and thought I should play it.

Fast forward 15years kids are moved out, me and the wife set a date for my birthday to play Edgewood. We couldn't get a tee time on a week notice so, next available course was here. Wow! What a great experience, staff was great from the gentleman at the front deask to the starter that sent us out to the cart girl Mandy. (She was Awsome).We paired up with a great couple from Texas and played a decent round of golf. Play was a little slow on the back nine but, Mandy the cart girl kept us Hydrated and was a pleasure to chat with. My wife is now a fan of the golf course and already planning our next trip.

Kudos to the Management and staff we will be back soon.

Beautiful location with the course needs some work

Three holes were under repair with temporary greens. One hole had the sprinklers running at the Teebox. Could be a beautiful course with some improvements.

Golf at Los Verdes in Rancho Palos Verdes

This was my second time playing. The golf experience was as pleasant and challenging as on my previous visit. The views are beautiful as it is right on the ocean. The weather is changeable, however and it can become cold and windy. My overall experience was great and I will return.

Spectacular scenery

The downside: three holes had temporary greens, and some of the others were still recovering a bit from the harsh winter. This was all to be expected, however, given that it was early in the summer season. Still, I thought most of the greens ran true despite the situation.

The upside: the scenery is really, really, nice. I started around 7:30am, walked the course by myself, and finished in just over three hours. Most of the time it was just me, the nature views, and the occasional fisherman saying hello by the river. Glorious!

It was $91 to walk, but when I told the pro shop I was from out of town and it was my first time playing the course, they gave me a free sleeve of balls and a drink ticket. Range balls were also complementary. I also found the course appropriately challenging – lots of forced carries over tall grass and water, and strategy required.

Overall, Lake Tahoe GC was a memorable experience and a good value. Can’t wait to go back someday.

Golfing at South Lake Golf Course

The course layout was terrific and the conditions were also great! The surrounding setting was beautiful. The restaurant employees were most helpful. My only suggestion would be to have some bathrooms along the course, however the pit toilets were acceptable. Overall, I had a terrific day!
