Good course, flat layout

Very long from the forward (Ladies) tees. Greens are rolling fast, expect to lose some strokes. Very beautiful surroundings.

Great except for snowmelt

Everything (except pace of play) would be 5 stars except for the fact that holes 10, 11 and 12 were closed due to being basically under water due to snowmelt. The part that really irritates me is that I had NO IDEA until I was informed by the starter at the first tee box!!! GolfNow had nothing about the closure and the pro shop said nothing either. Still had a great time despite only playing 15 holes for FULL price!

Poor management

This course has been poorly run for years. Figured I’d give them another try, never again! Waited on every shot!! Not one marshal on the course for a Friday afternoon.

Nice Tahoe course.

We’ve played here multiple times and enjoy the course. The course was in good condition. The staff were very friendly. When we’re in South Lake Tahoe, we often go over the hill to Carson City, Genoa, or Gardnerville to play. The courses there aren’t as nice but the prices are usually less. We were able to get a Hot Deal, so we were happy to play the Lake Tahoe course for $50. The surrounding mountains and scenery is beautiful. The course assigned a fourth person to join our threesome and he was a local resident so it was nice to have someone who knows the layout of the course well. It was a beautiful day and I definitely recommend this course.
