Nice driving range with a beautiful backdrop

“Booked a weekend afternoon time online. The course rates were comparable to other locations in the area. Nice driving range with a beautiful backdrop. The course itself was in great condition, with mountain and river views awaiting you on every hole. Challenging greens that test your green reading and green speed ability. A few narrow holes, my ball ended up in the trees a couple times lol. I had a fun experience and would play here again the next time I’m in the area.”

They were a pleasure to work

“We held our wedding reception at the Lake Tahoe Golf Course and worked with Dave and Courtney throughout the process. From start to finish, they were a pleasure to work with and everything went smoothly.

We used their catering service, and our guests had nothing but great things to say. The food was delicious. The reception space was absolutely beautiful on its own, so we barely had to add any decorations. And with the added bonus of stunning mountain views, it made for an unforgettable setting.

I would highly recommend the Lake Tahoe Golf Course as a wedding venue. The team there is fantastic, and they helped make our wedding day truly special. Thank you, Dave and Courtney, for everything.”
