About Ponderosa Golf Course

Ponderosa Golf Course in Truckee is a beloved local 9-hole layout that has served the Truckee community for decades, offering an accessible, relaxed mountain golf experience at a fraction of the price of the area's destination resort courses. Set among the pine forests near downtown Truckee at approximately 5,800 feet elevation, the course captures the casual charm of mountain golf without the formality or expense of PGA-level resort play. The tight, tree-lined holes demand accurate shot-making, and the cool Truckee air and pine-scented surroundings make every round feel like a genuine mountain getaway. It's a favorite for Truckee locals and summer cabin owners who want a quick nine without the ceremony.

History

Ponderosa Golf Course has served the Truckee community for many years as the area's most accessible and affordable golf option. While neighboring resort courses like Old Greenwood and Northstar attract destination golfers from across California, Ponderosa has been the heart of local golf in the Truckee basin — a place where kids take their first swings, seniors play daily rounds, and the golf is about enjoyment over prestige.

Truckee locals, summer cabin visitors, and golfers who want an affordable, relaxed mountain nine without the resort price tag or formality.
