Northstar California Resort

Pace of play was terrible as 8 guys in 2 foursomes ahead were celebrating a bachelor party. No rangers out to keep them on pace. Course was extremely wet some places and bone dry 10 feet away from the wet.

Course is no where near the $160 dollar price tag, cool layout, nice staff but the conditions are mid at best, if you wanna play w course worth $160 go play whitehawk or grizzly ranch in Portola

Overall a great course for the area. I will come back to play the course again!

love that the front and back nine are so different. both require accuracy and being creative with club choices. make sure and review the layout before playing.

This course totally exceeds expectations. great layout (front 9 links and back 9 forest) leads to a challenging but rewarding layout. Strategic golf is required. There's fun fun tee shots leading to undulating fairways and gaps to hit the green in regulation. Would definitely play again

Nice elevation changes. Large greens some narrow fairways. Course was extremely wet in several locations.

Staff were amazing. Starter, marshal and bag boys were so friendly and informative.

Will play this course again soon.

Very friendly staff . Location is convenient to North Tahoe and greens and fairways are in decent shape but that’s about it.

Rough is unreasonably long. Hard to believe they have it this high and thick . And the fairways are so narrow on the back nine that it’s impossible to stay away from. We lost many balls that landed just off the fairway. Made for an extremely frustrating round. Overall, the course value doesn’t match the cost. ..way overpriced.

Five star for friendly staff!

Course layout on front 9 is wide however on back 9 is very narrow, challenging. Course conditions not so great. Long grass on the rough. Lots of divots in the fairway. Pace of play, slow, didn’t see any golf Marshall on the course. I would play it again if i got good deal on the price.

The front nine is fairly open, but the back nine is extremely tight and tree lined. Course was in very good shape. Friendly staff, especially Sam and Zane. Will definitely be back.

this course simply doesnt care. their course description on thos site (and others) was written YRARS AGO. there are no ‘discounted rates due to ice damage’, what? and its WILDLY over priced. throughout the day.

played it last week, and greens SLOW. clearly have not been mowed much. rough is tall, and inconsistent, hole to hole. AND not a single maintwnance worker on the course. no workers at bag drop either. coming ir going!

tee markers line you up in the wrong direction on several holes. they just dont even try.

the cart girl was great though!

Staff super friendly. Excellent.

Course in solid condition and well maintained

Food and beverage options at the turn. But no beverage /food cart.

Excellent pace

Challenging course with lots of rough, bunkers, trees.

Shade in many spots.

Near roadway in a couple of spots.

Pro shop with everything necessary

$160 to play vs $200 Clear Creek guest fees seem a little high. But I am sure to maintain course and staff economics support guess fee.

48 hr cancellation policy could be tightened to 24 hrs.

My biggest beef here is that the rough is far too punishing for a resort course for amateurs. It took several minutes to find balls that were only two or three feet off the fairway, and there was no way to get a second shot near the green. Cut the rough down to something reasonable, and this course would be awesome. Otherwise, if you miss fairways, prepare for a long frustrating day.

I play here once a year or so, and the course is in arguably the best shape I’ve seen. Greens are slow but smooth and roll true. Biggest complaint is the rough- it is US Open style punishment. Not something I’d expect for a resort course for amateurs. I spent as much as five minutes searching for a ball that was a foot off the fairway. (I had no one behind me). Obviously my bad for missing fairway, but I don’t expect to have NO chance at the green when I do.

It’s a long day if you can’t hit straight off tee.

Northstar course conditions good. The greens were great. The golf staff was customer friendly. It was a challenging course to play.
