Northstar California Resort

The front nine was in an alpine meadow. It was pretty unmemorable except for the swampy conditions of the fairways and the locusts. Yup, literally covered with dead and even more alive locusts. Kind of unpleasant. But that's nature for you! The back nine was in a mountainous pine forest. Quirky holes with lots of blind shots and target landing areas along with narrow fairways. I would not recommend this course. There are lots better in the area including the far superior mountain course Coyote Moon.

The front nine was/is inundated by grasshoppers - not that Northstar has any control of that and am hearing many Tahoe courses are experiencing the same infestation. Front nine fairways are not in good shape and many are dead and brown. Back nine was in great shape….. and no grasshoppers back there! Staff was great.

First we were told by the rude pro shop guy that we did not have a reservation, which was not true. Then we find out at the starters area that there were kazillions of grasshoppers on the course. Not told before we paid or we would have backed out. And the critters were there in mass and obnoxious to play through.

This is the second time we have been cheated by this golf course and won't go back until they clean up their act--change ownership--or whatever it takes to get good vibes going here.

The course had a grasshopper infestation so the front 9 was almost unplayable. It was also not in good condition. The back 9 was nice. Overall not worth the money because of the grasshopper infestation. Maybe another time of year it would be worth it.

They had a grasshopper infestation and it was extremely bad and there was no warning on their website, etc.

Front nine is horrible. Thousands of grasshoppers everywhere. They have ruined most fairways and greens. They fly up as you drive the cart. Back nine is great. Do not play this course until the grasshoppers are gone.

The front 9 is on a flat open area and the back 9 is in a tight hilly forest like area. Lots of fun!

We really liked the course but unfortunately there is a grass hopper infestation on the front nine. We were forewarned but I think the regular rate should have been discounted. The play on the front nine in those conditions was absolutely terrible and worse than we anticipated when we went out.

Front 9 is inundated with millions of grasshoppers & course us very dry. & I mean millions!! Impossible to putt. Rate needs to be reduced when Like this!!

Course is normally super fun, great staff, layout and pace of play. There’s a grasshopper issue and it makes the front 9 almost completely impossible to play. Wish we knew!

The staff was great. Their starter helped pair with another group.to make the pace of play balanced. The course conditions are much better than last year.

Ridiculous flying crickets the entire front nine. Thousands of them. The course should have informed players and offered deep discounts

Bar didn’t open till 8 snack bar didn’t open till 10. They don’t accept anything but credit card too. It was a layout you’d enjoy the 2nd time out.

Been a hour away for ten years. Never played here because of bad reviews. I seen the last review and it stated don’t listen to old reviews the course is nice now. So I decided to try it out. Come to find out they have a new director of golf and have hired more maintenance staff. Really enjoyed playing. Course was in good shape. Front 9 open links and back 9 in the pines. I’ll definitely be back.
