Dayton Valley Golf Club is a great change-of-pace course on a trip to the Reno/Lake Tahoe area

This Arnold Palmer design is very different from most tracks in the underrated High Sierras region. Instead of cool mountains and towering pines, you're playing down in a valley with wide-open fairways. With virtually no trees, the 7,218 yards can seem much longer, but Dayton Valley is a great change-of-pace course on a trip to the Reno/Lake Tahoe area.
