Lakefront luxury on the south shore with on-site access to Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course
Edgewood Tahoe Resort is the only property in the Lake Tahoe basin that puts guests on the first tee of the region's best golf course without a car ride. The 154-room resort opened in 2017 on the south shore, adjacent to the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course, and earned its Forbes Four-Star rating through details that justify the premium: fireplaces and indoor hot tubs in every room, a private beach on the lake, and three restaurants that operate above standard resort dining.
The spa is a genuine facility, not an afterthought, and the outdoor pool overlooks the lake with mountain views in every direction. For golf trips centered on Edgewood as the primary course, there is no closer or more natural base.
The course is on-site. Guests walk to the first tee. For groups planning to also play the Truckee corridor courses, the south shore location adds approximately fifty minutes of drive time each way. That tradeoff is the main consideration: unmatched proximity to Edgewood versus distance from the four northern courses.
Couples and small groups prioritizing the Edgewood experience and willing to pay for lakefront positioning. The resort operates at its best as a two-to-three-night base anchored by a round at Edgewood, with non-golf days spent on the beach, at the spa, or exploring the south shore. Groups focused on playing multiple Truckee courses will find the commute repetitive.
