The Championship Course at Incline Village will challenge golfers of all levels, and leave even scratch golfers breathless with a slope rating that tops 140. Combining amazing scenery with demanding golf action, the Championship Course is high on the list of traveling golfers looking for the best from their High Sierra golf package.

Originally designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr., the course received a facelift in 2003, courtesy of golf course architect Kyle Phillips. The nearly $5 million renovation reinvigorated the course, which demands accuracy, as well as giving players risk-reward opportunities over trees and bunkers.

With two golf courses - the Championship and Mountain courses - Incline Village offers something for all level of golfer, and offers outstanding service and conditioning, as well as top-notch practice facilities, making it a highlight for a High Sierra golf vacation.

Nice to play once

It was a beautiful course, very scenic, but. $160 for an afternoon tee time is a bit steep. The course didn’t make me or my buddy want to come back, especially with the price in mind.. I’d recommend 1 round at minimum depending on your salary.

Fabulous Course

We were going to play at Edgewood in Tahoe but discovered Incline at half the price and the exact same experience. When I go back to Tahoe, I will go back to Incline! The pace was slow as the group in front of us where beyond slow and the Ranger kept on them but to no avail.

Some tight driving quarters, especially from the tips, long par 3’s as well expect for 1. Course was almost in immaculate condition, tee boxes like carpet, great fairways, good sand and fast and true greens.

Love this course

Excellent shape for mid-June (mild winter helped, I am assuming).
Greens are fast and firm, and rolling pretty true.

Only quibble -- 17 bucks for a large bucket of range balls? Woof.

Incline

Always a challenge and always spectacular. The only set back if u call it that is that the greens were slow but rolled great.

Awesome, simply spectacular!

Expect slow play and bring a camera. Tight fairways and quick greens will test your skills. Keeping your ball in the fairway over trying to bite off too much is key. The altitude will make you feel like DeChambeau as you crush your drives through the thin air. Practice your putting before teeing off, the breaks are subtle and pace is everything..

A real pleasure to play

I played on the second day of opening after the winter closure and the course was in pretty good shape. For me, not at all an easy course though nonetheless a delight to play. to play and the staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Generally rather tight with quite a lot of elevation changes and interesting hazards (creeks everywhere and a few lakes) and lots of very well protected greens. Unless you are a chipping and pitching ace, practice your sand shots first!

What a rip off

Beautiful course that is completely mis-managed. Never been on a course that doesn’t mark holes. No starter so we took off on what we assumed was #1 and it wasn’t. Stuck behind groups of 5’s and 6’s all day. Paid $150 apiece to tee off at 3:30 with ZERO chance we’d finish. So incredibly disappointed. Mountain course is incredible. Skip this at all costs. What a freaking shame. I’d give it zero stars if I could
