Golf Courses > South Lake Tahoe


Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, Stateline, NV


Edgewood is a good course for the low handicapper. Known as the Grand Dame of Sierra golf courses, Edgewood includes lakeside frontage, an elegant palatial clubhouse, a gourmet restaurant and enough banquet rooms to host several types of social functions from weddings to conferences. This course is the site of the annual Isuzu Celebrity Championship, a major televised event held in July. However, Edgewood's distinction is having the only two holes right on the shore of Lake Tahoe. These are the 17th (207 yards, an easy par 3) and the finishing 18th (574 yards, par 5).

You will be swept up by the scenic lake and mountain vistas and carefully manicured fairways and greens. Since Edgewood is Lake Tahoe's most popular course, it is the most difficult for getting tee times.

Bijou Municipal Golf Course, South Lake Tahoe, CA


Built in 1920 in South Lake Tahoe, this scenic nine-holer is located in Bijou Meadows just off Hwy. 50 near the center of town. Bijou is a respectable track for players of all abilities. Operated by the City of South Lake Tahoe, the course takes no advance reservations, but it is one of the easiest to get on in the Tahoe Basin.

There are five par 4s and four par 3s, and Bijou Creek provides water hazards and five holes until midsummer. Pine trees line many of the holes, and there are vistas of Freel Peak and Heavenly Ski Area. In general, the greens are small and include many tricky undulations.

  • Par: 32 Holes: 9 Yards:

Lake Tahoe Golf Course, South Lake Tahoe, CA


Course Information Owned by the California Department of Parks and Recreation, this course has a spacious clubhouse and can provide challenges. There are potential water hazards on 16 holes, including sections of the Upper Truckee River, although there are enough straightaway fairways to make up for the double bogeys. The course has a lot of diversity, including a scenic wetland with pines and aspens, and a huge rocky bluff behind the 10th that is unique in the Tahoe region.
  • Designed by: William Francis

Tahoe Paradise Golf Course, Meyers, CA


Course Information Situated on a south facing hill, the Tahoe Paradise Golf Course includes very tight narrow fairways through pine thickets, although what you can see from Hwy 50 looks easy. There are 12 par 4s and six par 3s, with two holes having water hazards. The top handicap hole is the ninth (377 yards, par 4, which requires a tee shot through a gap no wider than 50 yards, down to a large landing area and green that is bunkered on the right. As a rule, hitting behind most of the holes at Tahoe Paradise means losing your ball. The signature hole is the 14th (110 yards, par 3), which has a pond in front plus a view of Mount Tallac and the surrounding peaks. In general, Tahoe Paradise has modest facilities and fair maintenance, but with its short yardage, it seems like an executive.

  • Designed by: Bruce Beeman
  • Par: 66 Holes: 18
  • 18 HOLES: Separate walking rates and riding
  • Twilight Rates are available
  • CLUB RENTALS reduced during twilight
