Montreux Golf & Country Club vs Somersett Country Club

Somersett Country Club and Montreux Golf & Country Club are both in Reno, which makes them a real alternative to one another rather than a hypothetical one. Somersett Country Club has 27 holes across 2 courses against 18 at Montreux Golf & Country Club, which changes how often you replay the same routing more than any amenity on either list does. The designs come from Tom Kite, Roy Bechtol, Randolph P. Russell and Jack Nicklaus respectively.

Neither club publishes an initiation fee or dues schedule, so the cost question has to be settled by asking both directly — and asking in writing, because the number quoted on a tour is rarely the number on the agreement. Somersett Country Club documents events and banquets that Montreux Golf & Country Club does not publish; Montreux Golf & Country Club documents swimming pool, fitness center and tennis courts that Somersett Country Club does not. Absence here means we found no public source, not that the facility is missing — worth confirming on a tour if it matters to you. On the evidence we hold: Somersett Country Club if variety of golf is the priority and Montreux Golf & Country Club for a household that will use the club midweek.
