Very poor condition.

I don't recommend this course to golfers. Poorly designed and poorly maintained old local golf course for seniors.

Terrible golf course

Course layout is boring, fairways are bare and in rough shape. Greens are small, however in decent shape. Not a course worth the drive for those staying on the strip, compare it to a bad muni located in a less than stellar neighborhood. One of the nines has been left to turn back into desert sand. Will say the staff was good and very friendly so thats a plus, course should not be on Golfnow.

Black Mountain Course

Easy play for the average golfer and absolutely no challenge for a better to low handicap player, too easy!
You get a great deal for your money again for the average golfer and can score lower than most courses as long as you can keep it straight and not spray the ball too much.

Black Mountain

This was my first time at Black Mountain and it was fun. There are some challenging holes for low handicaps and there is a drivable par 4. The conditions were good for it still being winter so I really can't complain. The staff is great! They go out of their way to get what you need. I will be recommending Black Mountain more often.

short and sweet

Course had a lot of bare spots. Very tight lies everywhere. Sand very shallow, full of rocks. Greens sanded not long ago, but they rolled very well with a good speed.
we got a reduced rate thru a golf program but would have felt worse to spend anymore money than we did.
It's winter here and I dont know that I am a good judge of what to expect? Below my standards tho.

Sad example of neglect

The course was poorly watered, fairways and greens hard. Course had not been mowed. Fairways were in very poor condition. Some of the PGA markers were illegible. No Marshalls on the course and the round took 5 hours 10 minutes. The course was shabby and looked like the management was just wringing as much money out of it as possible with the least amount of investment in maintenance. Had the course been in good shape, with its narrow fairways, plentiful bunkers and relatively small greens, it might have been more fun.

This course is terrible

The course needs to be torn up and reseeded. The fairways were full of weeds and bare spots. There was no more then 20% grass in the fairways. We played late morning on a weekday and the first nine was over 90 minutes. Due to the slow play and course conditions we left after only 8 holes.

good not great

The course operates like a high end operation. Clubs are picked up for you at the bag drop & cleaned after the round. The greens are very good. Fairways below average & tee boxes are in good shape. At the discount price we had, I'd play it again, but wouldn't pay a premium course price to play.

Cheap round of golf.

We paid $20 apiece to play this course, including a cart. That makes this a great value. Regular green fees of $60+ would not be worth it when there are so many other courses in the Vegas area.
