Genoa Lakes Golf Course

Overall: Had a group of 8 guys play 36 holes at Genoa (18 on Ranch and 18 on Lakes course) in early August 2015 for a bachelor party. Across the board, our group truly could not have been more pleased. Really fun/​interesting courses and a laid back atmosphere and staff that made everything very low stress and fun.
Service: We were visiting from across the country, and Michael W. made it very easy to plan ahead of time. He helped set up our tee times (including multiple time and # changes) and a shuttle bus to pick us up and take us home (we were staying in South Lake 30 min away). The shuttle came with only a small fee, and the driver (believe Sal was his name) was very friendly and prompt. The rest of the staff in the pro-​shop and bar were also extremely friendly and helpful, particularly the cart guys and the bartender at the Ranch course. The clubhouses are very nice.
Golf: We found both courses to be beautiful, well maintained, and a lot of fun. Our group included mostly average-​good golfers (10 – 25 handicappers) and 1 guy who has only golfed a couple times in his life. Everyone was able to enjoy the courses. Although the Lakes course is more highly rated, most in our group actually liked the Ranch course slightly more due to the elevation changes and the desert feel. We saw tons of deer on the Lakes course, and the surroundings on both courses are gorgeous. We played on a Thursday, and we felt like we had the course to ourselves.

I performed at a gorgeous wedding yesterday at Genoa Lakes Golf Course. Everything was in place, and Stephanie has been a delight to work with on the wedding details. There were some 200 guests, and everyone was easily accommodated.

I cannot tell you how amazing Stephanie has been during my wedding planning process. She is always quick to answer my questions and I have no worries what so ever when it comes to the venue for our wedding this summer. We recently attended my future mother-in-law’s wedding last winter and it went off without a hitch! The staff had everything set up so beautifully and we are extremely excited to be able to share our big day at Genoa Lakes. Not only is the staff great, but the building is absolutely beautiful, and the pond driving in is perfect for beautiful photos. I will forever recommend them for weddings in the future!

What a disappointing experience! The course is decent and in pretty good shape. But everything else was poor.
You have to climb many stairs to do or get anything. The pro shop, the bathrooms, the bar and the restaurant are all up stairs. They have a snack shack near the range but it’s now closed.
New ownership. The older gentleman orienting the golfers when we were there was a positive.
We were looking for a good breakfast after getting a speeding ticket 500 yards from the gate for going 5mph over the unusual 45mph posted limit. Bacon and eggs seemed to be in order. Sadly, the food was inedible. The eggs were ok butchery give only one slice of toast and you could see through the bacon. Had to ask for butter for the toast. It had a very odd flavor in it and I had to scrape it off. Throughout the ordering, serving and eating process, the bartender/​server let us know that every request we made was an inconvenience for her.
Off golfing we went… We ordered a tuna sandwich and a hot dog at the turn. The tuna dripped liquid something and tasted awful. The dog was bad too and even though we were hungry due to the incredibly s l o w pace of play, (the 1^st 3 holes took one hour!!), we tossed them.
Oh, and you should be very careful where you step in the first few holes as the neighborhood dog population believes it to be their territory.
I won’t be back!

While the golf is decent at this course, my buddies and I were treated unecessarily rudely by the kitchen staff (specifically, «Linda»). On the turn, we just wanted our $ 10 lunch special and she made it seem like we were inconveniencing her. She indicated that it’s going to take a long time for the five lunch specials we ordered. I perceived it as a passive aggressive call that she was annoyed we were there. All in all, the course is great, but the overall experience can be improved.

Dropped in as a single in early Dec 2012, visiting from out of town. The staff was friendly, decent practice facilities (range, chipping/​putting green), clubhouse appealing to the eye.
The Lakes course is interesting, lots of topography changes on the front 9. I liked the course a lot because it was fun to play and in great shape, given that it is a public course.
I would definitely play here again, and look forward to the next time I’m in town so that I can. I look forward to coming back sometime other than the middle of winter so as to play the Resort course as well.
All in all, a wonderful golfing experience!

Hubby golfed here two days in a row with a friend. Awesome course, Geary the pro was nice. Winter golf is great deal — less than $ 40.

Great Golf Course to play!!!
Put the Driver away if your wild with it and wanna score well. Me and my father played today with a man named John Dollar, who plays here quit often and had a great time and loved playing with such a good player. Were not the best player but are not the worse either, and if you have good course management you will have a great time. This course is open year round and even in later November was in great shape.
GIVE IT A SHOT and after hit up the bar and TAKE A SHOT!!!

A solid 4 ½ stars. I Played here on a Saturday and was impressed with the overall service, quality of food and the golf course condition.
I booked a tee time on the resort course. This course closes in October but had really fast greens, deep bunkers and the back nine played on the side of the mountain and was scenic. The driving range was large and your hitting on grass — range balls were included in the green fees.
We saw many wild jack rabbits running everywhere and the landscaping on the back 9 was gorgeous.
Food in the bar area was tasty and the waitress was friendly.
I tried the BBQ bacon burger with fries and it hit the spot after the 9 hole turn. Burger was made with quality beef and included all the extras.
The finishing 18^th hole a good one! It’s a long par 5 at 618 yards from the back tee box.

I won a round to play here unfortunately was not able to play the lakes course (due to a tournament-​i could of if i went after tourney 2hrs later) and got stuck playing the resort course and found it to be simple and very boring, and was able to shoot a low round, because there was very little challenges on this course, and even with some bad shots you can recover with no problems getting to the green, wide open with very little trees… So yes it was a disappointment, as it is a drive over Kingsbury grade for us, which has an awesome view…

This is by far the fanciest schmansiest golf club I’ve stepped foot on. And although my list includes, oh… all of two 9 hole courses, please let me assure you that it is indeed quite fancy schmansy. I thought I might possibly get kicked out for being female… although they did have a marvelous collection of fancy lady’s golf attire, I half wonder if these pieces are souveniers for the men to take home to their ladies. Or maybe their mistresses. Me, I took home a 50% off blue tiger striped golf glove. Heck ya, sexy stuff!
They don’t really like to rent out golf clubs, but they were very nice and lent us a couple bags for our jaunt to the driving range. We took a short tour around the course on a mighty fine golf cart, and it was quite windy that day. Nice grounds, especially for kind-​of-​out-​in-​the-​middle-​of-​nowheres Nevada. The driving range is pretty straight forward — one long row of tee-​off-​spots (yeah, probably not the technical term). And forget that fake grass nonsense… they’re decked all the way out with manicured putting green grass! If that won’t put your nose a little higher up in the air, maybe you should head back inside the swanky club house and order some sort of old boys’ club drink. Like bourbon. Yes, bourbon would have perfectly ended this lovely jaunt. I definitely should have thought of that earlier.
