Founded in 1917, Washoe Golf Course is the oldest golfing facility in Reno. The layout has small greens and tree-lined fairways, but the fairways are wide and flat making them fairly forgiving. There are water hazards and bunkers strategically placed throughout. The mature landscape is carefully maintained with an elaborate sprinkler system that ensures that the course is green and ready for play all year round. Washoe Golf Course also has PGA Professionals on staff to help with individual or group instruction and extensive practice facilities that include a generous putting green, driving range, and a chipping area with practice bunker.

Good for the price

Everything is always straight forward at Washoe GC. Staff is Friendly and pace of play was good. Finished round right at 4 hrs. Course was in good shape with grass in good condition. Bunkers are hard packed with a thin layer of sand on top. The small tea cupped greens are Challenging to stick a golf ball. Enjoyed the round!

Great Day, Great weather, great conditions for December

Played in a threesome and it was great. Course was in great shape for December 3. Staff was awesome and very friendly. Carts could use some yardage computers, or the course could be better marked for yardage.

wcgolf course

Person behind counter was great!! Need more people like him.
We thought the tee boxes and most fairways needed to be cut. Greens/sand traps were good.
We thought golfers should not be able to walk this course. They were way too slow.
We will play again.
THANKS.
