Good course for both parties 3 and par 4

Very good course just getting back into golf and this course works great for sharpening your skills on all parts of the game, hopefully as the warmer weather comes the fairways on the par 4 will have grass coverage

All rough!

If you weren't on the tee box or the green, the conditions were rough! Either hard ground or crap grass.

Perfect Course for Game Improvement

Absolutely love this course. I’ve played it 5-6 times and it has helped my iron game so much. Conditions are usually great and the pace usually finishes in under 4 hours. Some holes are easy, and some are brutally difficult which is great for improvement. For $35 after 12pm it’s a fantastic deal.

Nice executive course

This is a nice executive course in Henderson. It is all par 3s and 4s with a fun layout. Greens were fast and smooth. Staff was very helpful and friendly. The cost was also very reasonable!

New Rules

Place has new rules for bringing a child. Booked to play and drove down from Utah. Paid and was getting ready to head out with my wife and child when I was told we couldn’t have the child with us unless she was 5 or older. I didn’t see any warning on the website and/or golf now. I understand if a place doesn’t want children on the course but make it well known to people who book online so you don’t waste their time and money as most places in the area don’t have these rules.

Crappy 18-Hole Course Dominated by 70-80 Yard Par 3

Played at this course to practice my iron shots due to their short par 3s. Yesterday was the exception! Not only we paid full price at $50 each. The tee boxes were moved so close to the greens that most of my tee shots were approach shots at 60-80 yards from the tee box. The par 4s were made into par 3’s at 170-210 yards from red white and blue markers.

The tee boxes are unlevel and they turned on the sprinklers every 10 minutes during our round (9AM-12:30PM.

Full price Half a Course

Can't believe we weren't warned prior to the tee time that all the tee boxes were moved up to temporary locations. Most of the par threes were chip shots. Most par fours were reachable in one shot. This was very disappointing. Never got a warning from the course and found out after we showed up to pay. Asked the club house if they would give a discount and got ridiculous answer. "No discount but you get to play our beautiful course. I have played this course many times and thought that the management should have taken the time to warn me prior to showing up or offered a discount towards the playing conditions.

No one said that the greens were plugged and sanded and the tee boxes were an average of 100 yards up. All way in front of the ladies tees. The only thing they were missing was the wind mill. They said there was a disclaimer in the small print.
