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.

Great Course

Considering the longer winter season and very cold temperature in March, this course was in great condition and with some fast greens. I really had fun. My biggest regret was not playing from the men's tee on that very beautiful par three - the one with the island green. By the time I got to the ladies tee and realized all the fun and challenge was gone, it was too late to go back to the men's tee. I really had fun though. I would definitely return to this course in my next rip to Reno.

Great Course

Considering it is still winter, with snow on the ground, the course was in good shape with some fast greens. The view of snow capped mountains added the extra flare. The only thing I regret was not hitting from the men's tee on that beautiful par three overlooking the lake and island green. The blue tees was literally at the bottom of the hill which took away the fun for me. Perfect for many, but I like the challenge of trying to hit land from the top of the hill. I had a lot of fun with guys I played with. I will play this course again.

Nov golf

Beautiful day, pace of play was horrible. Course was over watered, greens were in great shape. Shouldn’t be watering fairways if sprinklers don’t shut off, kinda hard to hit 2nd shot when you can’t get to your ball. It was a nice day, but 3some in front of us needs to learn to play ready golf and aware of other people behind you!

Solid course

Course is in great condition. Pace of play was solid until the last few holes, but that wasn’t the fault of the course. Will gladly be back.

Great Course but no Cart Girl

Great course but the play was slow and no cart girl the entire round. Tee time was 2:36 and it was hot.
The staff was excellent, just hot and thirsty. Glad I brought a couple bottles of water.
