First Time Playing

Nice course, but very short, mostly par-3’s

I was actually looking for a normal length course, something above 6000 yards, and found this course through an online app. So 3454 and 3811 yards, white/blue tees is what you’ll find here.

The course was in very good condition, and they keep the grass nice and green. The greens themselves are a little slow, but that may be normal for this area where it gets so hot in the summer, and the greens can’t be cut very short. There were plenty of hills, valleys, bunkers, and a few trees to keep things interesting.

Pace of play was good, around three hours.

I brought my girlfriend along to ride along, and the rider fee was $10.

The online price was around $37 for green fees, which would be cheap if it were a full length course, but probably more average for the shorter length.

Good value in city full of courses charging too much for visitors

For the money, this course was pretty solid. It's a short but challenging setup. For a visitor like myself, it was great for a solo round just to play while on vacation. The guy I played with was local and very fun to golf with... Also, this is a good spot for a group full of cheapskates that still want to brag to their friends back home about playing golf in Vegas. If I lived in LV I'd play there often...It was fun, and didn't feel like it was trying to be anything other than just a solid little nicely priced course in a city full of regular courses marketing themselves as "destinations".
