The course was in great shape in some places not so much in others. Construction going on building homes and still a bit soggy on a few of the lower holes. The fairways and greens were in very good shape. Greens were rolling very well, and are very undulating and tricky! Snack bar was not open, waiting on inspections. No drink cart. Staff was very helpful though and apologetic for the lack of services. If you want a good scenic round and with lots of slope, it's a good course. Covid Killed all the courses, with lack of staff.
Nestled at the foot of the majestic Sierra Nevada mountains, Genoa Ranch Golf Course offers golfers an unparalleled experience beneath the clear blue skies and perfect weather. The setting at the base of the Sierras infuses the course with natural beauty and a serene ambiance that's hard to match. As you play your round, you're treated to breathtaking views of the Carson Valley, a vista that seems to stretch endlessly in every direction. The contrast between the rugged grandeur of the Sierra Nevada mountains and the sprawling beauty of the valley below creates a mesmerizing backdrop for your golfing journey. Genoa Ranch Golf Course's revival feels even more magical in this setting. The lightning-fast yet smooth greens, paired with these awe-inspiring views, make every swing of the club a moment to cherish. It's not just a golf course; it's a harmonious blend of nature, perfect weather, and the spirit of the ranch's resurgence. In summary, Genoa Ranch Golf Course, set against the Sierra Nevada mountains and with panoramic views of the Carson Valley, is a golfing paradise that combines natural beauty with a revitalized course. The experience is one of sheer wonder, where golfers can immerse themselves in the grandeur of the landscape while enjoying the thrill of the game.
Course fairways had lots of dirt/ mud. Even tee boxes in poor condition
I want to start by saying every single employee we dealt with at the ranch course was phenomenal. Unfortunately this review reflects the golf course and its condition. I find it completely unacceptable that we were not told ahead of time that holes 12-18 were closed. There was also no effort made to move us to the lakes course where all holes are open. The condition of the course and driving range is horrible and pretty much beyond repair. This course will take millions of dollars to recondition into good shape which is such a shame considering the potential. The mosquitoes and grasshoppers are a huge problem. Ended the round with tons of mosquito bites. Would not recommend this course to anyone.
Had a great time! It was easy to navigate around, for the first time being here. Was a little dry in spots as per other reviews, but it's expected to be as it's in the valley. Reasonably priced to play 18 ($30 w/ cart) and had club rentals which were very nice!
