South Lake Tahoe Things to Do

In warm weather, Lake Tahoe Golf Course's high-altitude meadow setting set against rugged mountain scenery offers breathtaking views. Located on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada Mountain’s Lake Valley State Recreation Area, Lake Tahoe Golf Course’s spectacular William Bell-designed championship layout will challenge and delight every level of golfer. The course welcomes casual players as well as custom-designed tournaments and events. The clubhouse also includes a full golf shop, a cocktail bar and a snack bar with cart service on the course.

Lake Tahoe Golf Course & Clubhouse is also a popular venue for non-golfing special events, including weddings. The 2,500-square-foot clubhouse features a full-service restaurant and dining area overlooking the golf course with views of Mt. Tallac. It is a perfect setting for receptions, group meetings and banquet dinners; with seating for up to 160 guests. Whether the event takes place on the 10th tee near the Upper Truckee River or in the clubhouse with views of Mt. Tallac, the catering and event specialists can help give your wedding day that special Tahoe flavor.

Golf in winter? Yes, at Lake Tahoe Golf Course & Clubhouse. In winter the clubhouse becomes more of a sports bar and restaurant feel with simulators that provide all sorts of activities. This, of course, includes golf featuring hundreds of golf courses worldwide, a practice range and lesson capabilities. Simulators also have games like hockey, soccer, baseball, disc golf and arcade fun games for the kids (and kids at heart) like Zombie destruction using tennis balls thrown at targets on the screen.
