Old Greenwood Neighborhood Guide
Old Greenwood is a private, amenity-rich golf and mountain community on Truckee's north side, built around the Jack Nicklaus-designed course and anchored by a lodge, pool, and trail network that connects directly to open national forest land. The neighborhood draws people who want resort-caliber infrastructure without managing it themselves, trading typical homeownership chores for HOA services, member shuttles, and groomed common spaces. Winters here are quiet and snowy, with the community thinning out considerably once the course closes, while summers fill back up with golfers, families, and residents who treat the pool and trails as an extension of their backyard. The setting sits between Interstate 80 and Highway 89, with Prosser Creek and Tahoe National Forest framing the outer edges, keeping the feel more secluded than Truckee's downtown-adjacent neighborhoods. It suits people who genuinely use both the mountain and the course, and who value a managed environment over an independent one.
