An Unlikely Place for a Golf Course...Likely Place Golf & RV Resort - Likely CA

Likely seems too small to even qualify as a town. It's a small community of about 60 people about an hour and a half north of Reno.

What seems even more unlikely is that you would find a golf resort here in the middle of some cattle pastures, but, yes, Likely Place Golf & RV Resort is where we are staying.


It's an undiscovered gem! We're fortunate to find space here to spend a holiday (Memorial Day) weekend. We have a decently sized spot that was slightly elevated with a nice area of grass and a view of the surrounding area. The resort sits on over 500 acres of land with five ponds and an abundance of wildlife.


The golf course is surprisingly long and challenging with a number of elevation changes and sharp doglegs. Miss the fairway and your golf ball just disappears! Tom played on three different days and sacrificed more than a few balls to the golf gods on this course.


An elevated 150 yard par 3. If you look closely you can see a teeny tiny little green in the middle of the picture. The tee box is actually about 200 feet above the green, so it was a fun hole.


The Local Course Marshall


To Tom's surprise Wendy even tried her hand at golf and played nine holes on a couple of different days. She did very well and had fun!

We had some dramatic thunderstorms with pouring rain and dramatic winds, but also some beautiful days and dramatic sunsets.


Tom scared the bejesus out of Wendy running outside when the thunder and lightening storm was directly overhead to help a neighbor anchor his awning ! He was one soaked good samaritan!
