About
Ponderosa Golf Course may have a short layout but it features the challenges of a full-length championship course. The golf course sprawls across mountainous terrain that provides plenty of elevation changes throughout. The fairways are lined with towering trees and the greens are undulating, making accuracy a top priority in doing well. There are two dogleg holes and one hole has an elevated green to watch out for. There are also bunkers scattered throughout. The golf course provides excellent short game practice as well as being a great round for beginning to intermediate players. Ponderosa Golf Course also has practice facilities for golfers to use including chipping and putting greens and driving nets.

Nice morning round
Greens are looking much better. The first is still struggling but the rest have really come back. They are slow but rolling smooth and the breaks are starting to play. Best value in town.
Slow greens, some need love
Greens are slow, but most are looking better after this winter, hoping they can roll them soon. The first green is a mess, mostly dirt including the approach. The 9th green is always soggy. Flags don’t get moved much so areas get worn. Same with the tee markers, those aren’t moving much either so there’s plenty of divots. The fairways and rough are looking the best they have in years and it’s the only affordable place in town
Always a great course
The east course is not particularly challenging but it’s always a joy to play. Well managed and right now generally in great shape, for a public muni this is probably the best deal in the greater Tahoe/reno/carson city area.
Nice Course For Anyone
First time playing this course. It was in very nice shape, fairways were great, greens were in very good shape, sand bunkers could use some work as well as the tee boxes. #9 was the hole I liked. Tee shot had to cut as it was a dogleg right. Second shot had a tree middle of fairway, you have to go left of it, nice set-up. I think it is one of the better 9 hole courses I have played and I have played a lot of them. One thing I have to say, I got $10 off a hot deal so to play it was $30 for 9 holes walking.
Nice 9 Hole Course
This course is in very good shape. The greens are pretty slow so you have to get used to the speed, but they are fair if you can muster the courage to hit the putts hard enough, Nits a nice setting and we were able to play in 1-1/2 hrs.
Nice 9 hole course in the in the pines.
Course was is great condition. Nice greens, friendly staff.
Pondy
Had a great time at pondy early season. Got a great rate on golf now. We walked an early morning nine. It was beautiful. The past was quick, we were done in less then two hrs. The greens were a little slow, but that was kinda fun too. Thanks Pondy!
Enjoyable and good price
Great course for the price. Greens recovering from a tough winter. They were a bit slow and bumpy but in remarkably good shape.
