Your journey from the fifth green to the sixth tee will include a wonderful view of Gooseneck Reservoir and the Lahontan Valley. Appreciate the view because at 483 yards into the prevailing wind, this is the course's longest and most difficult Par 4. It starts with a forgiving tee shot to a generous landing area with two fairway bunkers on the left. But look out, your exceedingly challenging second shot must avoid a right side bunker and a scenic, but potentially troublesome, lake on the left side of the green. A well played second shot would favor the right-middle of this large green and be on the same tier as that of the day's pin location.
With a dramatic backdrop of Lookout Mountain, the scenic lake and the thick stands of trees, this is one of Lahontan's most talked about holes.
