Old Greenwood and it’s sister course, Gray’s Crossing, are two gems located in Truckee, CA. About 45 minutes from Reno, Old Greenwood offers 18 holes of perfection courtesy of the Golden Bear, Jack Nicklaus. If you enjoy the challenge of a Nicklaus design, then you will love Old Greenwood from the opening tee shot. Each shot from there needs to be carefully considered and there is no shame in playing safe when in doubt. Odds are no matter how well you are striking the ball, you will find yourself in at least one very undesirable position during any round at Old Greenwood.

I found Old Greenwood to be a serious test of golf. Even playing conservatively and trying to stay out of trouble, I found myself short-sided on a few missed greens and also in a couple bunkers well above my head. But I enjoyed every hole and am very much looking forward to my next visit. No matter what your game produces, you have the pleasure of taking in the pure beauty of the golf course and all of it’s amenities. Make Old Greenwood part of your next custom golf package in the Reno-Tahoe area, and let me create the right itinerary for your group.
