Arrowcreek Country Club-Legend

ArrowCreek Country Club is on the south side of Reno, off US 295 at exit 59 in a residential development. with two 18 hole layouts, the Legend course by Arnold Palmer, and the Challenge Course by Fuzzy Zoeller and John Harbottle III, and has been open since 1999. Desert style layouts through the homes with good views of the mountains. The Legend course plays to 7,115 yards from the tips, with a course rating of 75 and a slope of 137, but has four shorter sets of tee boxes. Typical of a Palmer layout, it has a good amount of risk/reward type shots, and is generally considered the easier of the two courses. It's routed over and through desert ravines, rock outcroppings, a ton of sand lining the fairways, and is visually a nice contrast against the desert borders. The Challenge course can play longer at 7,433 yards, 74.0/140 ratings from the tips, and is the tougher of the two layouts. It's more of an open and linksy type of layout through rolling terrain and the desert scrub. Both are fun to play, conditions are usually very good, the only caution is the service attitude in the pro shop, and forget about the food and beverage service in the clubhouse, and eat before or after you play golf.
