The Story of Somersett

In the rugged hills west of Reno, Somersett began with a bold vision: to create a master-planned community built around lifestyle, connection, and extraordinary surroundings.
A Big Idea
About twenty years before the Club fully came to life, Blake Smith saw opportunity where others saw only sagebrush and rolling terrain, envisioning the Somersett community as a six-mile master-planned development.
Building the Foundation
Beginning in 1991, Smith worked to assemble land from 43 owners, funding the project himself for several years and navigating major legal and political challenges to move the vision forward.
A Community Takes Shape
What began as a bold concept evolved into one of Reno’s most distinctive communities — with Somersett Golf & Country Club at its heart.
Course Heritage

A Tom Kite Signature Championship Golf Course

In 2001, the vision for a signature golf course at the center of Somersett was entrusted to Tom Kite. Alongside KBR architects Roy Bechtol and Randy Russell, the course began taking shape in 2002 across the dramatic Nevada hillsides.
Designed to harmonize with the scale and beauty of the high desert landscape, the course features bold bunkering, significant elevation changes, bent grass greens built to USGA standards, and a layout created to offer variety, challenge, and unforgettable views.
