In tha Lions Club

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 5, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

North Tahoe Lions Club DGC is a nice 18. The park is pretty heavily wooded. A couple of holes have slight dips and rises but it's mostly flat. There is a stream rolling between holes 11 and 12 on the back 9 but it isn't much of a threat.

The course is all par 3's, but there are a couple of tight fairways that can be tough to hit. Tee signs are good, and the rubber mats in the boxes are all pretty level and clean. The baskets are rimmed in yellow and usually easy to spot from the pad.

Tall trees are scattered all throughout the park. Usually there is a central line to the basket that is defined with trees on either side, but some have options of multiple gaps between the trunks.

Holes 4 and 9 have undulations in the ground around the pin. 11 is lined with bushy rough on either side and has a bit of a crook halfway down. 17 is kind of a fun line drive tunnel shot.

Cons:

The layout is a little choppy. There is a long walk after hole 2, and another one after hole 14. Hole 17 and 18 are across the street from hole 1. The course map is helpful to navigate these transitions.

There are many other activities available at the park, and it is likely to be crowded on a nice day. The layout does a nice job avoiding the other attractions and the walking paths for the most part.

Other Thoughts:

I had fun playing this one, but it's fairly tame compared to the others I visited in the area. It is less demanding physically. There are some tricky drives, but distances are manageable.

I was 3 over (57) on the round. My only birdie was on hole 5. Definitely could have done better. Perhaps I'll try again, Lake Tahoe and the surrounding area has a lot of good reasons to make a return trip.

Very fun course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 16, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Throw and go. Pretty standard but well placed baskets make this a solid place to play. I took fewer disc on this course.

Cons:

Maybe a little packed and the walk from 2 to 3 and 14 to 15 are farther than the others.

Incline 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 21, 2015 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This course is located in a park with tennis courts, baseball fields and a skate park close by. Winding through fairly dense trees along and over a creek, some guarded pins and a few challenging pars. A practice basket sits by itslef across the road into the park. Nice rubber tee pads and signage for each hole. Good mix of some open shots and some real tight tree lines with mandos to keep things interesting.Sometimes the creek has a bit of water in it, making for some sneaky O.B.

Cons:

A few holes where a spotter may be needed because of thick brush. Some holes are pretty far apart, 4 or 5 minutes walk. A pin placement or 2 sits near other tee pads, but this course isnt very crowded so its not usually an issue. Some pins real tough to find from the pad, gotta go scout em out. Not much elevation change going on here.

Other Thoughts:

This is a fun course with a feel similar to Bijou in South Lake or the Truckee River course, although I find this course to be a little cleaner than Truckee. Lots of shot types needed, as some mandos force you a certain way. Not a lot of turns being made, but tree locations make a good amount of the holes pretty tech, you cant just bomb out drives and have pick-up pars each hole like some of the easier desert courses nearby. A couple longer holes, good opportunities for birds and an ace run or two make for a fun round here.

Does well with its limited space 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 5, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

- New DISCatcher baskets.
- Rubber tee pads.
- Maps on every hole.
- Shady, didn't get too hot.
- Beautiful area with a year-round creek
- The grounds are well kept - very little trash and trails are maintained.
- Multiple ace runs.
- Lots of parking, and parking is close to hole 1.

Cons:

- The maps give a general direction of the baskets but are not always accurate. Some have revised/additional pin positions drawn on them with sharpie but I wasn't sure if that was supposed to be there.
- No trash bins on the course itself, although you can find some in the nearby skate park or tennis complex.
- Fairly small course, many fairways are close together.
- Long walks to holes 3 and 15. It seems like more signs have been put up since the other reviews though. I had no problem finding the way.
- A couple other tee pads were more difficult to find. Course could use a few more directional signs.
-There is a lot of erosion control and habitat reconstruction going on around the creek. This in itself isn't a bad thing, but on some holes there is the risk of a bad throw landing in these areas.

Other Thoughts:

The Lion's Club DGC does a great job with the limited space it occupies. It's wedged in between a tennis club and a school, but manages to get in 18 baskets without feeling too cramped. Most of the holes are on the short side, so the whole course can be played relatively quickly. There is a good mix of RHBH and LHBH favored holes, although it contained more RH shots overall. I would recommend the course for families, groups with less-powerful throwers, or for anyone looking for a less intense alternative to Tahoe's other courses. The whole course still offers a lot of tricky shots with multiple lines to the basket. There were a few other people playing through on the Sunday we were there but we never got stuck behind anyone. We took the advice of one of the other reviews and went to T's Mesquite Rotisserie after the course - loved it!
