Ponderosa Golf Course

If you’ve made it this far in our guide, it’s probably become pretty clear that there’s a lot of high-end public golf to be found in and around Reno. 

While I’ve played most of these top-tier spots, you guys know I’m always on the lookout for a great value and fun experience.  Ponderosa Golf Course is exactly that in the town of Truckee. 

True to its name, this golf course was created in concert with a mature Ponderosa forest. 

Owned and operated by the city’s Parks and Recreation District, there are no homes or commercial buildings surrounding the course.  This was the intent and it’s going to remain that way for the foreseeable future. 

Even though the layout is straight forward, you’ll have a most wonderful time at Ponderosa.  I always do.
