Designed by John Duncan Dunn. Old Brockway is long enough to satisfy the low handicapper and forgiving enough to accommodate the high handicapper. The course has a view of Lake Tahoe on every hole. Old Brockway played host to the first Crosby in 1934-35. From Truckee (about 12 miles southeast to the course): Take US 80 to Highway 267 south. Brockway is on the corner of Highway 267 and Highway 28. Highway 28 circles along the north shore of Lake Tahoe. Descending toward the lake, the course is visible from Highway 267.

Designed by Ted Robinson. Recently redesigned by Ted Robinson, Old Ranch features 28 acres of water, open fairways, and well-bunkered and mounded green sites. Getting your ball up and down from a missed approach shot could be hazardous to your score. The one thing that has not changed at Old Ranch is the prevailing wind. g Reciprocal play with other members-only clubs is allowed. From west Los Angeles (about 33 miles southeast to the course): Take the San Diego Freeway (I-405) south. Exit at Seal Beach Boulevard and turn right. Turn right again on Lampson Avenue to the club.
