LakeRidge Golf Course is a Robert Trent Jones course that has consistently been voted the "Best of Reno" ever since it first opened in 1969. Though the course sits less than five miles from downtown, the surrounding mountains provide a tucked-away feel. There are some stunning views from the elevated tees but don't get too distracted, this challenging course demands your attention. Mature trees tower over the fairways but they are thankfully wide enough to offer a little room for error. Water comes into play frequently and there are strategically placed bunkers lurking along the undulating greens. Accuracy is essential at LakeRidge Golf Course. The signature hole is the par-3 15th. This tee sits atop a rocky ridge that is perched 140 feet above Lake Stanley. You'll be playing downhill to an island green on this challenging but scenic hole.

Lakeridge

Have played the course many times over more than 30 years. In the past few years maintenance of facilities, especially bathrooms have been neglected. Improvements are needed.

Great for time of year

This course normally is one of the best in Reno! I never have anything negative to say about Lakeridge. For the season and weather Reno has been getting, the course is in great shape! It was very surprising. A previous review complained about the goose droppings…I noticed what they were talking about, but it took 2 seconds to move it out of the way. Greens were very fast but stuck when you had a great shot. This is always one of my favorite courses!

Overpopulated by Canada geese

But it was hard to find a spot without Goose feces to play your shot, disappointed

Fun course layout

This is one of my favorite Reno courses. The front nine plays like a meadows course, while the back nine has some great elevation change. The signature 15th hole par is very fun! The whole course plays cohesively. The 4 stars on course conditions was sue to the fact that the greens and fairways had just been sanded. It Played better once the greens dried out a bit.

Great course…but those tee boxes

Nice course to play. Signature 15th island hole is an awesome pic opportunity. Course condition was pretty good for this time of year. The tee boxes continue to disappoint as they are in not good shape and in majority of cases uneven and not well maintained.

Too Wet and Too Slow!

Love this course but it's being over-watered and we were waiting on a slow threesome the entire round - on a quiet Tuesday. 4 1/2 hours when it should have been far less than 4 hours. Where were the course marshals?

2023-11-13 Beautiful Day at LakeRidge

Our threesome had a great day! Temps hit the mid-60s in the PM. Greens were soft with some tough pin placements. We all made it onto the island green with our first tee shots! Enjoy playing LakeRidge every year!
