Nevada County Country Club

Nevada County Country Club plays nine holes over 2,694 yards at par 34. That length gives it more substance than many nine-hole courses, and the Sierra foothill terrain adds natural elevation changes throughout the round. The pine-covered hills surrounding the course shape the holes and provide shade on warm days. There is no driving range on-site, so players typically head straight to the first tee.

The club is on East Main Street in Grass Valley, right in the heart of California’s Gold Country. Economy pricing keeps it accessible, which is notable given the area’s scenic setting at foothill elevation. Other courses in the region include Alta Sierra Country Club and DarkHorse Golf Club, but Nevada County Country Club offers a shorter, less time-intensive alternative for golfers who want to play among the pines without committing to a full 18.
