Rating 62.5

Situated within the woodlands of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, Tahoe Paradise Golf Course has a hilly landscape covered with towering pines. This short, tight golf course is filled with challenges including tight, narrow fairways and smooth, fast greens. The fairways are also lined with trees and thick cuts of rough and some of there is an occasional sloped green. Tahoe Paradise Golf Course's par-4 holes are said to have severe dogleg fairways and water hazards come into play on two holes. The picturesque scenery provides a relaxing break from the challenges of the golf course. One of the most scenic holes is the par-3 14th with a spectacular view of Mt. Tallac and the surrounding peaks.

Short, Tough Course

Distances on the scorecard do not do it justice. Bring plenty of balls. If your not a straight hitter this course will be extremely difficult. Small fairways and greens are the general rule. It's built on the side of a mountain, accordingly 90% of your shots are severely uphill, downhill or sidehill. Your first time playing the course leaves you wondering what club to hit. It's in good shape, the greens are fast and will hold good shots. Play it once if you would like a challenge, then decide if you will try it again.

$25 per person cart fee

The $25 per person shared cart fee is a bit expensive. Especially since this is not a par 72 course.

Diabolical short course

Really challenging course first time you play it. Definitely not a “Grab your driver and tee it up” type of course. Even the par 3s require thought and careful evaluation of how overhanging branches will affect your shots (watch out for hole 3).

A lot of fun. I will play it again.

Rustic course

Course is rustic Tahoe - not a lot of choices though in South Shore Tahoe. Will make the drive to Genoa next time. Edgewater out of my price range.

Playable but challenging narrow pine tree lined fairways. Makes you think through your club selection.

I enjoyed it thoroughly!

Very Tight

Course is very narrow. Not favorable to mishits. Overall in good shape. Greens are very tricky. Need to play more than once to score better. Friendly Staff of 1 who do it all. I will play again when in Tahoe.

Nice Course

The pro shop staff was friendly and great. We showed up 30 minutes ahead of our tee time. we were asked if we would like to go out early which we accepted.Check in was a breeze. Course was in great shape except for the tee boxes, expected with many rounds.. Fantastic views. Course marshalls were very friendly.

would go back again.

Tahoe Course

Nice course to play. Only had limited time and got out early. Finished my round in 3.5 hours. You have to manage your shots on the course since the holes aren't long.

Great place to play in Tahoe!

This was my first time playing golf in Tahoe! The altitude definitely adds some distance to your clubs, so have your numbers dialed in and add some yards when you get there! Very friendly staff in the clubhouse! Pace of play was a little slow due to the shorter distances on the holes, but everyone around the course was very friendly and patient! Overall a very pleasant experience!

Fun Course

Tahoe Paradise was a fun course with challenging holes and requires precise shots. Don’t try to overpower this one. Just hit hybrids and irons off the tee on most holes. Course was in pretty good shape. A little pricey for an executive type course but you’re playing in Tahoe.
