We played Teal Bend(TB) and for winter time, the course was in great shape. We also loved the green conditions as very pure and fast.
The linkish style layout is really a lot of fun with many bunkers which were also nice. Pace of play was a little slow due to one group
and course representative Jason apologized for the delays. I have always found TB a great course to play. Watched the 49er game after round and enjoyed a good lunch and beverages also. Another plus about TB is it's practice facility. Definitely look forward to playing there again.

The Links at Summerly is a fun course to play especially if you like links golf courses. The condition of the course was in fair condition due to dry fairways.
Some bunkers were sparse also. The greens were fast and in good condition. If you have a GPS with each hole layout then it would make some of the holes easier as there are drainage ((hazard) ditches which are blind on many shots. Pace of play for weekend was good. We will definitely play course again.

We played the course and found much improvement to the greens from the last time we played it a month ago.
A few of the greens had portions where the green was gone, but overall their was great improvement. The fairways are though getting a lot of weeds in them in many areas or are bare. To sum it up, for the cost of the round, we felt that we got a fair value. Hopefully, they will be able to control the weed growth and fix the greens with have waste areas.

Played a month ago and the greens were not very good shape. Decided to give them another shot, and found not much changed except the greens were punched and sanded. Still a lot of weeds and whatever they used to punch some of the greens appeared to pull up the nap of the weeds on the green. Fairways were good and the traps had sand in them. Could not get a good judge on the speed of the greens due to the nap issues and sand.
Course staff also appeared to be dismissive of us since we had a golf now discount time. I tell you this, I would not play the course for their regular prices with its current conditions which have not changed. I have played Table Mtn for over 50 years and this is the worse the greens have been in all that time. I think it is time to consider spending my golf funds at other courses.

We were really surprised by the green conditions at the coarse. They all have a significant number of large gouges/ballmarks. After the first few holes I really got tired of fixing ballmarks. I would not pay their prime time tee price with greens in this condition. Fairways were good condition, but numerous sand traps had no sand and were hard packed dirt. They were very hard to get out of with their high lips. Pro shop and restaurant staff were great . I hope Teal Bend will address these issue as the course is a great layout.

I played 2 weeks ago and the greens were pretty beat up with ball marks. Today, they were better but now have lots of poanna grass or weed in them. They also are putting very slow. This invasion looks very bad and hope they get on it as it can wipe them out. Also fairways have a lot of crabgrass clumps. Practice area is great and fees are reasonable. The restaurant and bar are also very good. I hope they get control pf their invasive weed problems. I have played Table Mtn over 500 times and these conditions are some of the worst I have seen.

Table Mountain GC used to have some of the best greens in the north state. Today, they were very poor with numerous ball marks, old ball marks and dry spots. When asked manager what happen, he said we are improving. I don't see how you are improving when there is no one out there fixing ball marks. The large accumulation of ball marks indicates no one has been doing any maintenance on this part of the greens. The greens were once the hallmark of this course for the last 40+ years I have played. Several areas in the course was also being over watered especially in fairways. Finally, it appears management is very ignorant as instead of offering an apology for green condition, he acted like so what we are improving. This was the same attitude I got from their pro Todd, when our group played in April and the ruff was not cut and totally unplayable. Instead of notifying us, they just said "Oh just hit it in the fairway".
I will now stop playing and recommending this course as it is getting close to becoming a poor muni at over $40 to play during week days.

First, I hope Reno/Sparks does not decide to close or modify this course as it is a gem. Wildcreek is challenging, beautiful and a great value, The vistas of the Reno/Sparks valley and surrounding mountains are awesome from several of the greens and tee boxes. The course and greens were in very good condition. There are several holes that are challenging and you should chose the appropriate tee box to play off. It is now our go to course in the area especially since they closed Rosewood Lakes which was also another great course for your golfing dollar. Golfing at times may seem to be on the decline, but courses like Wildcreek make you want to keep playing just for the beauty of the course. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

River Oaks condition was very good and the greens are in good condition and fast. They were also actively
mowing the rough and blowing leaves. Weplayed in 3.5 hours. The senior rate is very fair. Be sure and pick the right tees for your skill level as wetlands come into play on many holes.

Bayonet is a very difficult course especially when windy and the greens are running fast. If you are a single digit handicap then go for it. All others may find it very difficult as the greens are extremely fast. Our foursome had so many 3,4,5 putts it was ridiculous. Several holes if you were above hole then it became a challenge to keep your ball on the green. Prices also are over $150 now unless you find a discount. The course is beautiful and in 5 star condition, but is a US Open challenge for most golfers.

Pacific Grove GC is one of the greatest value in golf. The course is always in great condition. Of course the ocean back nine takes your breath away with it's vistas. Played with a man from Rhode Island who was just awe struck by the course and cost to play. We will return again.

I have played Table Mtn. on and off for 50 years and it is always enjoyable. For a muni course it is
always in good condition. The driving range is great with its covered hitting areas and elevated tee box.
The yardages are clearly marked also. The over the water par threes on the front nine give the course its character. The greens are in good shape and are not too firm. The fairways are generous on most holes. The restaurant and bar have very fair prices and the food is very good. The staff is always helpful and friendly. I wish they did have more marshalls to speed play at times. TM is great value for golfing bucks.

The course was in very good condition and pace of play was great. We enjoyed the layout and found the greens to be very fair. Several of the holes are tricky so you must be able to know correct yardages to layups and hazards. . The course requires course management and be sure and pick the right tees. The pro shop is well stocked and the restaurant is great.

Toiyabe GC is a wonderful GC which will test your skill so be sure and pick the correct tees. You
should also play close attention to the course layout on the cart GPS as there are many water features which your ball will easily find. The greens were in great condition and also fairways were good. The layout is terrific and views on several holes were great. Mike, the golf pro, was excellent in getting us started and explaining all the amenities. We enjoyed our lunch in the restaurant also. Our next trip to the Carson Valley area will definately include Toiyabe. I believe it is the best course in the area.
We are so glad they now allow public play.

River Oaks green are still in poor shape and as such raising prices makes playing the corse not of value. Having a 8 ft putt for par or better and watching your golf ball look like a trick golf ball (doing odd bounces and spins) is no fun.
The fairways in some places are getting a heavy weed growth. Finally, where is there no porta potty on back nine. Ladies cannot use a bush or tree! We will play again at new price point or no bathroom on back nine

Played Poston several years ago and decided to play again while down in Phoenix for 2 months. Not much has changed except prices jacked up (Troon effect) and still have a porti pot on front nine. Pace of play was very poor as waited on every shot. Most greens were very dry and hard and some were beat up. Fairways were in good condition. I see no value in driving 40+ minutes from Phoenix area and paying over $80 to play this tract when Phoenix area has just as nice courses for less cost and travel time. I don't see why there are so many good reviews about this course.

Played course in Nov. 2017 and greens were really bad. Played yesterday and they were greatly improved, but still need warmer temps so bare spots will grow in. As long as company keeps it current price point then there is value in playing River Oaks. The layout is good and a fair test of your game. The tee boxes are great as you can pick what yardage you want to challenge yourself. The course is very enjoyable for women. I hope the ownership can survive the current down trend in golf.

Played on Thursday and followed a 4 some and went around in less than 4 hours. Liked the course so well, we decide to play next day. Big mistake as Friday and there were more golfers and no marshall. We were stuck behind a 6 some three groups ahead on the front nine and it took almost 3 hours. The group broke up but by then it was jammed up on back and again no marshall. Course is very nice, but not well time managed for players. Their solution to speeding up play was a message on the gps telling everyone to play faster.

Pheasant Run GC's shortest set of tees measures out over 5800 yards with a slope of 128 for women.
This makes the course very difficult for the average golfer and extremely difficult for srs.,jrs, and women.
In comparison, Dragonfly just down the road has 7 sets of tees starting at 4500 yards. The 2 times we played it , we also noticed everyone was playing the forward tees. NCGA along with Jack Nicholas's play it forward
initiative endorses have multiple tee boxes so players can select tee boxes which match up with their driving distance and skill level. This in turn attracts people to golf. When I commented this to the pro shop, their smart retort was "what is the course too long for your wife" as if we should be playing elsewhere. Guess what, we will play elsewhere and since I was scouting for our large RV group to come down, we`ll also make it a point not to play here as they appear not to like seniors and women.

Morgan Creek was not in its usual good condition when we played it. The fairways had many bare spots and boggy areas.
The greens were beat up with numerous ball marks and other issues. Maybe the marshall could repair ball marks instead of driving around as pace of play was really slow even when we teed off with 2 holes clear in front of us. It took us 4:45 to play as a 3 some. Waited on every shot from 3rd hole onward. Pro shop and restaurant staff were very nice. The putting green was in very good condition, but was much faster than course greens which resulted in several 3 putts until we readjusted our putting speed. I really like MC, but its condition makes me not to want to play there again especially on weekends playing at theirpremium price point.
