Golf Summerlin - Palm Valley Course

The course was in decent condition and the staff were super friendly. I was on a flight from Atlanta and delayed two hours so I called the pro shop and they reserved a spot for me in the afternoon. Super helpful. However, the pace of play was excruciatingly slow. I gave up after the 14th hole because I just couldn’t wait any longer.

Enjoyed the course. Was able to play with a local that knew the course well which helped.

Our group really enjoyed this course. Great condition, nice l'ajout!

The course has a fantastic layout. However, the greens and fairways were punched a few weeks ago so the greens were slow and bumpy and there were punch divots all over the course. I am sure after the course recoups it will play well. The sand traps would have been good if they were raked everyday. The traps have sand but they were crusty and unpredictable. Having said all of that, I would definitely comeback and play when the course repairs.

There are three courses at Summerlin. Having recently played all three, I would rank this one as #3 of the three. Main problem was the course conditions were overly dry. Pace of play was good. Greens were 3 of 3....bumpy, coarse and slow. Quite a few blind shots, especially on approach shots making a first time experience a bit frustrating. I'll be back, and will play in the early morning next time to get the greens in their best condition. The course winds through a residential neighborhood, but the homes are set well back that they don't come into play. Fairways were wide, and the rough was non-existent (dormant and matted down).

Anytime you can play a nice course in 4hrs is a perk in my book and we were late to the tee time. They were so accommodating and understanding. That alone started the round at ease. Nice conditions!

First time playing the course. The challenge was on the greens that roll faster than most greens that I’m used to.

Came out to Vegas to visit family and this was my first playing this course. The teeboxs fairways and greens were in great condition, when I come out to visit again I will definitely play this course again. Worth the money.

Let me start by saying it was a perfect day and as we drove up, we were very impressed with what we saw! Once inside we had a breakfast burrito which was fine and we headed out to putt and the driving range. The range was mats only which is understandable.

Then we made our way to the first tee. The group ahead of us had just tee’d off, which gave us adequate time to set our game and prepare to tee off.

After finishing the first hole, we made our way around the corner to the second tee where we were greeted by four foursomes and a ranger. As the Ranger made his way back to us he was very quick to point out that there was going to be a long delay due to five extra men’s club groups teeing off in the morning. He told us they had reservations for four teetimes and showed up with golfers for nine teetimes. He said management, let the men’s club control the teetimes, and now he was putting up with the residual fallout.

Two of the groups that had been waiting ahead of us, went back to the clubhouse as well as the twosome that we had been paired up with. After 25 minutes, we did tee off on the second hole and upon arrival on the third tee there were still four groups ahead of us waiting to tee off. Groups ahead of us and behind us were calling it a day and heading back to the clubhouse.

We had just flown in from a cold weather state and were just very happy to be in warm weather so we stayed at the course and continued to wait and play.

In over 50 years of golfing, I have never seen five groups on a hole. It did get better, by the time we got to the 10th tee there were only three groups waiting.

The course has the potential to be a very nice course. The rough and fairways were somewhat dormant, and the greens were average to slightly below average on speed. But the course truly has the potential to be a gem!

Unfortunately, we won’t know because the overall experience left us with a poor taste in our mouth and management made no attempt to rectify their error.

The pace play was really smooth. Very little if any waiting time, which was unusual. The fairway was beautiful but the green needed some care, othwise it was a perfect day for golfing.
