Home near Lake Tahoe on a Fazio golf course is on sale for $13.7M ... and it's stunning

USA Today12-07-2025
This is a magical time of year in the Lake Tahoe area, as the American Century Championship attracts top celebrities to the region this week, soon to be followed by the Barracuda Championship, an alternate-field PGA Tour event for years.
And there's plenty more to the area, which enjoys crisp air, picturesque mountain views, world-class skiing along with the incredible summer golf.
A home that hit the market highlights the best of the region, including a view of the Lake Tahoe Martis Camp course that architect Tom Fazio said is one of the best he's ever designed.
Here's more from the listing:
Framed by floor-to-ceiling windows and expansive patios and verandas, this 5,996-square-foot Martis Camp estate is a front-row seat to some of the community's most iconic sights — from the serene Fazio golf practice field and nearby putting green to the dramatic shoulders of Sawtooth and Lookout Mountain at Northstar California Resort. Whether you're waking up in one of the six spacious bedrooms, lounging in the great room, or relaxing in the media room with panoramic glass, one question will linger: where will your eyes and imagination land next?
Clad in reclaimed barnwood and basalt stone, the home blends seamlessly into its alpine setting while offering striking contemporary design and indoor-outdoor living at its finest. Oversized glass doors slide away to merge interior and exterior living spaces, making every gathering a scenic experience — be it summer golf watching or winter slope spotting.
Inside, the great room impresses immediately with a soaring fireplace and a wall of windows that command attention before you can even say 'wow.' A cozy game nook anchors one corner, while the dining room and chef's kitchen—with its statement island and sunlit design — invite both quiet mornings and lively entertaining.
Just off the main hall, discover a private office, guest suite, and a luxurious primary retreat that boasts unobstructed views of the golf practice field and direct access to a nearby putting green.
And here's a look at some photos of the home:

Tiger Woods once used his Masters jacket to take a jab at Justin Thomas over FaceTime

You come at the king, you best not miss. That's the moral of the story told by Justin Thomas in his pre-tournament press conference Tuesday at East Lake Golf Club where, in 2017, he was crowned FedEx Cup champion after finishing second in the Tour Championship but at the top of the season-long standings — a fitting end to the best year of Thomas' career in which he racked up six wins. But there's another moment that sticks out in Thomas' mind when he looks back on his time spent at the famed course that sits five miles east of downtown Atlanta, and it isn't a moment that was witnessed by the masses. Asked what his favorite East Lake memory was outside of hoisting the FedEx Cup in 2017, Thomas recalled a hilarious interaction with arguably the game's greatest player: Tiger Woods. "Probably my best memory, and I couldn't even tell you what year it was, it was probably — I guess it would have been 2020," Thomas said. "I remember playing here, playing a practice round and walking down 18 and FaceTiming Tiger, because he wasn't here and didn't qualify, just showing him how the course was and how great it was. "Then, he acted like his phone cut out and then he called me back two minutes later with green jacket on. I remember that very, very, very vividly. Just a typical conversation of thinking I am having some kind of upper edge, and I get shut down and put in my place pretty quickly. "There's a lot of golf things here and there that have obviously happened, but that's the first thing that came to mind when you said that." There's no comeback for that one. Touché, Tiger. The friendship between Thomas and Woods is well-documented. They live in the same neighborhood in Jupiter, Florida, often playing golf together both in their free time and during practice rounds at PGA Tour events. The two have been seen having laughs and taking jabs at each other on the golf course numerous times throughout their careers (You might remember the time at Riviera Country Club during the Genesis Invitational in 2023 when Woods outdrove Thomas and tried to covertly hand him a certain feminine hygiene product). Thomas is also a member of the TGL, an indoor golf league started by Woods and Rory McIlroy that will begin its second season in December. Entering this week's 2025 Tour Championship — the last of three legs in the FedEx Cup Playoffs — Thomas is in search of his second win this season. He defeated Andrew Novak in a playoff at the RBC Heritage back in April and followed it up with a T-2 finish at the Truist Championship in his next start a few weeks later. He became a popular pick in the majors that followed shortly thereafter, but his major season didn't feature anything to write home about. Thomas missed the cut at both the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open before finishing T-34 at the Open Championship. He'll look to right the ship at East Lake and finish the PGA Tour season on a high note before turning his attention to the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. Bryson DeChambeau narrowly edged out Thomas for the sixth and final automatic spot on the Team USA roster, but he finished in seventh and figures to be near the top of Keegan Bradley's list to be one of the six captain's picks.

PGA Tour 2026 schedule unveiled: Trump gets back in picture with Doral event

ATLANTA – President Donald Trump is back in business with the PGA Tour in 2026. The Tour announced its schedule for next year on Tuesday and it includes a return to Trump Doral's Blue Monster near Miami in May for a new signature event to be called – for now – the Miami Championship. It is being announced without a title sponsor but Golfweek sources say one is expected to be announced in the coming months, well before the tournament. Doral was a longtime PGA Tour stop Doral was a longtime Tour host until it was dumped from the schedule in 2016 when title sponsor Cadillac elected to end ties with the Tour and the tournament and a replacement couldn't be found there. Instead, the Tour moved the event south of the border, which became the VidantaWorld Mexico Open. With the introduction of the Miami Championship to the regular season schedule, the Mexico Open will now be contested as part of the FedEx Cup Fall. One event has dropped off the schedule: the Barracuda Championship in Truckee, Calif., which has been played opposite the British Open in recent years. Trump courses have been used on multiple occasions for LIV Golf events, including at Trump Doral. The President attempted to help negotiations between the Tour and LIV on two occasions earlier this year but nothing came to fruition.

The Miami Championship gives the Tour nine signature events for 2026, up one from the previous two years. It includes a stretch of two majors and four signature events in a span of seven weeks, beginning with the Masters in April through the PGA Championship in May. [The lone regular event will be the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, a two-man team event.] 'We're excited to showcase the game's greatest players competing at golf's most iconic venues,' said PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp. 'Inspired by our players and fans, we're accelerating the Tour's evolution and ushering in a new era of innovation on and off the course.' Full PGA Tour schedule has adjustments The FedEx Cup regular season features a total of 35 official FedEx Cup events and begins in January with The Sentry (Jan. 5-11) in Maui, Hawaii. Notable adjustments to the schedule include The Genesis Invitational returning to The Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California – it was held at Torrey Pines last year due to California wildfires – and the Truist Championship (May 4-10) returning to Quail Hollow Club, after hosting the 2025 PGA Championship. Schedule changes include the Tour spending consecutive weeks in the Dallas/Fort Worth area with THE CJ Cup Byron Nelson (May 18-24) and Charles Schwab Challenge (May 25-31), while the Corales Puntacana Championship (from mid-April to July 13-19) and the Rocket Classic (from late June to July 27-Aug. 2) will shift dates on the calendar. Full details regarding the 2026 FedEx Cup Fall will be announced at a later date.
