Golf Course Review Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course Stateline Nevada

Golf Playing Conditions 8.09 GREAT

Played on Friday, 6/7, for the start of Matt’s birthday bash. Everything is what you would expect for a course charging $230 a round. Tee boxes were better than most courses’ fairways. Most fairways were lush and carpet like (except for a handful that had been aeration). Rough was up around 2 inches and not very penal. Greens were smooth and medium-fast.

The employees were great. Awesome bartender, fantastic starter, and the staff at the halfway house was great. Carts are high end with GPS to the hole and multiple USB plugs. There’s a phone and full menu on the 9th tee to call in orders to the halfway house on the 10th tee box (pro tip: breakfast burrito is not on the menu but they’ll make a very tasty one). Cool trick: the 9th straddles the state-line, so you tee in California and putt out in Nevada.

It’s a great, fun course to play. Not a big fan of trees in the fairways (approach into 11, tee shot on 16), and there’s a few around the greens that make you alter your shot. Definitely a splurge course, and not an every trip to Tahoe course.

**It rated out to 7.8, should be closer to 8.3

Played here on 7/9 which was the last day of public play before the course shuts down for the American Century Celebrity Tournament. This is my 3rd time playing here in the past 9 years. Each time has been a special day for me, but considering the tournament conditions and the grandstands and TV towers peppered throughout the grounds, it was EXTRA special on this day. The conditions are the best I have ever played: fairways were pristine, tee boxes were great, greens rolled true and fast. The rough wasn’t too penal but “grabby” if you didn’t come in steeply enough. At over 6,000 feet above sea level, I found my ball flew a little bit farther (good for the ego), but made it hardest on approach shots from inside 125 yards. For example, I hit an approach wedge on #16 that I absolutely nutted and was sure it would be on the stick and yet had to watch it fly 20 yards over the hole. Oh well, can’t complain with hitting a pure shot.

We played in exactly 4 hrs and 25 minutes. And honestly, I would have been much happier with a 6-hour round so I could enjoy it longer (I’ll never say that about another course).

Although it is pricey, if you get the right weather and stop to enjoy the views, you will not be disappointed.

Saw a lot of celebrity athletes playing practice rounds during my day (Greg Maddux, Marshall Faulk, Doug Flutie, to name a few). What a great day!
