Lake Tahoe Golf Courses

Looking to play a round of the “Greatest Game on Earth” during your visit to Lake Tahoe?  We are fortunate to have some of the world’s most beautiful golf courses right here in Tahoe.  Both the north and south shores offer many breathtaking courses, as well as some of the neighboring Tahoe areas.  Most courses open in the late spring and stay open into October.  The summer season offers the best playing conditions with consistently sunny and warm weather, and both late spring and early autumn offer cooler temperatures (often with discounted rates).
