Incline Village, Mountain Golf Course Overview: The only "executive" golfcourse on this website is probably one of the more difficult courses with a par under 60. This baby brother to the Incline Village Championship Golf Course is tree-lined and filled with some tough shots. Elevation change makes club choice difficult on many golf holes and the few par fours that are spinkled in are quite tight too. The best golf holes are mentioned below:
Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 4: This is one of the better holes outright with a shot over a deep troublesome gully to a green that is well protected by trees on either side, bunkers short and a steep bank behind.

Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 5: The best of the par fours is a dogleg right with a tight drive and OB on either side. There is a bunker with a large tree in it right of the green that needs to be avoided.
Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 7 (left): This is a short and beautifully framed par three with large trees and big bunkers. Not too challenging, but a truly nice mountain par three.
Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 9 (below): This par three has a slope and lake to the left, so bailing out right towards the bunker will be the usual miss. Back-left pins are pretty tough.

Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 12 (right): This very tight golf hole requires accuracy and distance control as it is downhill too. There really isn't a good place to miss, but going right is the worst option by far.
Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 15 (below): This downhill and short par three borders on the absurd with shots that hit anywhere to the right ending up anywhere from right to all the way across the green and down the hill to the left. Moral of the story: just hit the green (you don't need much club).

Moral of the story: just hit the green (you don't need much club).
Incline Village, Mountain Course Hole 16 (below): This is the overall most difficult shot on the golf course as there is a tight shoot between the trees and the creek runs just right of the green. Also, the cart path actually skirts as close to the left-front edge of the putting surface as any I've seen, creating some possible additional drama.
Incline Village, Mountin Course Hole 17: The best uphill shot of the day is hit over a creek and then up a steep bank guarded by bunkers short and all along the left side of the green. It plays pretty long and the putting surface, like many on the golf course, features a fair amount of undulation.
