The back side plays in a strikingly similar fashion. The first four holes play in a single-file order on the Valley floor and the last five holes work their way back to the clubhouse along the hillside. The course is not a monster. More than anything, it is refreshing. Because it is a true shot-maker's course, anyone can find a set of tees to match their game and can score well.
Birdies are plentiful, but so are double bogeys and worse.
Edgewood Tahoe is the crown jewel of the west. The South Shore's famous lakeside golf course, located right next to all the glitz and glammor of the strip, blossoms into pristine shape every year during the end of spring and plays to even higher standards than most professionals would hold it to. The property is not your average landscape, it's a dreamscape. The tightly-mowed fairways feel like velvet and set the ball up cleanly. The felt-like greens roll fast and true.
