Fun and challenging course

It was my first time playing Lake Tahoe Golf Course. The staff was friendly and we got off on time. I played with two locals who let me know what to expect and where to aim my shots. Somme holes were open, but quite a few required a Strategic shot in order to be in position to get on the green. We move along well and finished in 4 hours. I hope to get back to play again sometime.

Good choice in Tahoe

Not many public options in the South Lake Tahoe area so I played here for the first time. The course is a heavily wooded parkland layout on a flat piece of land. A lot of dog legs. Not super tough but no cupcake either. Greens are in great shape.. I thought being a mountain course it would have some elevation changes but not so. Still it has some amazing views of the surrounding mountains and is visually very appealing. Pace of play is slow due to high demand for tee times with few other options in the area.

Overall a solid track and enjoyable day. I booked another tee time already.

Not worth the money….

We chose to play this course because it was close to where we are staying. We are all for keeping up the pace of play but teeing off on a Wednesday morning and being rushed to finish under 4 hours is ridiculous. Being charged $100/person is crazy for the course/quality you’re playing. “Edgewood” standards for just a local municipal course. From now on we will continue to drive to Carson City which is 45 minutes away just to play golf, to avoid playing here again.

Fun Course

Very fun course in a very convenient location. Course conditions were great, with the exception of sand traps need a bit more sand. But overall we had a fantastic afternoon at a good price.

Great course, but pricing is tough

I got lucky with a hot deal and paid $50 for a round at 10:50 on a Saturday. This price was great but I heard the regular rate is $105. That seems kinda steep for the course after playing. Overall a nice fun course, playing from middle tees was a little too easy. Playing from the tips makes it a lot more interesting and challenging, next time I will play the tips.
