Lahontan Golf Club

In summer 1998, world-class private golf found a spectacular new home in North Lake Tahoe. Lahontan, with its acclaimed Tom Weiskopf-designed 18-hole championship course and the nine hole Par-3 course is a paradise of sweeping fairways, stunning vistas, mature trees and challenges for every level of golfer.

There couldn''t be a finer complement to the natural landscape at Lahontan than the remarkable talents of golf course designer Tom Weiskopf. Gently molding the course to the natural elements, Tom deftly blended classical and contemporary styles to create one of the most stunningly beautiful and purely enjoyable courses ever designed. The legendary beauty of Lake Tahoe has finally met its master. The result is a golf course of distinction that will stand the test of time.

In crafting Lahontan''s 18-hole championship course, Tom used his personal mixture of skill, imagination and an uncanny ability to integrate the natural setting into a distinctive and challenging design which resulted in a truly exceptional golf experience for players of all abilities.

Tom considers Lahontan to be the best site in the U.S. he''s ever had to work with. He also said Lahontan''s design will reward a properly executed shot and fairly penalize a poor one making it a challenging and exceptionally playable course. His expertise was put to work at Lahontan with a Par-3 course that features three acres of lakes, wetlands, breathtaking vistas, and a double-green on the ninth hole. It''s the perfect playing ground to enjoy the game with the family, practice on a late summer evening, or simply play a quick round with friends.

Evocative of older, traditional clubs such as the San Francisco Golf Club, Lahontan is not a target golf course, nor does it have a lot of long forced carries. The generous fairways and large greens will allow golfers to keep their ball in play. Lahontan''s courses are special because every time you play, you see something new. It''s unique design and attention to detail magnificently married with its beautiful natural surrounding ranks Lahontan among the finest golf courses in America.
