Played here yesterday with my son and really enjoyed our day. First off the staff here were exceptional. From the pro shop to the bar tender to the marshal they were so friendly and helpful. My son’s girlfriend left her purse in her cart and we got a half hour away and had to go back for it and although they were closed by that time the cart guys and the woman who bartended and the office person and the marshal all went all out to find her purse when all they must wanted was to go home I am sure. They were fabulous hosts at this really nice course. And the golf course is really nice too. A ton of character on the front nine up and down the surrounding hills with great views. A few holes seemed straight the mountain and there were a couple tee shots launching off cliffs. Pretty fun nine and challenging too. The back nine is more traditional and flat with water hazards to keep it interesting. Lots of nice retirement community houses along the back nine too. I would happily play this course again and I will make a point to do so next time I visit my son in Tahoe

My wife and I played a very nice 18 yesterday. The course is in great shape. The staff members were all super friendly and professional. The course has some interesting and unique holes. One hole on the back nine is temporarily shortened from a par-4 to a par-3 due to construction. I had no problem with this -- it is nice to see a course that is making the investment to improve the player experience. Highly recommended.

Loved this course. Tucked up at the northern end of Carson City, quite the gem. Front nine and back nine play completely different. Front is flat layout. Back is a climb up. Will defines play here again when visiting. Oh and I forgot to mention, the club house and driving range is automobile themed. Old gas station relics, old cars, and a 50's inspired diner look in the club house. Will probably ho there just for lunch, looks fun.

Today, I received clear permission from the clubhouse to hop on from my house and play the back nine at Silver Oak. I was walking the course alone, playing respectfully and at a steady pace. Immediately after I began, a group of elderly men behind me started hitting into me — and it kept happening. The first incident happened while I was in the rough taking practice swings. A ball landed just five yards away from me. I was caught off guard — confused about who these men were and why they were hitting toward me while I was clearly still playing the hole. I let it go and continued. But after I finished the hole and was walking off the green, it escalated. One of their shots flew about 10 yards over my head — a dangerously close call. At that point, I turned around and told them to stop hitting into me. Instead of apologizing, they drove up to me and immediately got aggressive. They cursed at me and accused me of cutting in front of them. I calmly explained that I was walking the course and had permission to start on the back nine. One of them looked straight at me and said: “We don’t even care — just get out of the way when we hit.” That moment ended my round. I walked home — not because I wanted to, but because I no longer felt safe. I refused to escalate the conflict, but staying would’ve meant accepting that kind of reckless and hostile behavior, and I couldn’t do that. This wasn’t a misunderstanding. It was deliberate, aggressive, and unsafe. Golf is supposed to be a game of patience, respect, and integrity. Today, I saw none of that. I was hit into repeatedly, spoken to with open hostility, and forced to leave a round I had looked forward to. No golfer — walking or riding, young or old — should ever be made to feel like an obstacle in someone else's rush. Safety is not negotiable. Respect is not optional. And no round of golf is worth putting someone else in danger. I truly hope the kind of behavior I experienced is the exception — and that we can all do better to protect the dignity of the game and the well-being of those who love it. I also hope the course takes this seriously and finds ways to help prevent situations like this in the future.
