There is a wide array of golf courses in the Truckee, North Lake Tahoe, Graeagle area, ranging from quaint 9-hold courses to impressive 18-hole championship courses and everything in between. Golf enthusiasts can’t get enough of the fairways lined by towering pines, flowing creeks, stunning mountain scenery, and challenging terrain.

“I truly believe the collection of public, resort and private courses of the High Sierra make up the most underrated golf destination in the country. Finish a week playing golf around Truckee-Tahoe and you’ll be bumping a couple of courses off your personal top 10.”
