There are three championship courses at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort, all of which were designed by Pete Dye. Snow Mountain is the original course, joined by Sun Mountain, which is considered the easiest of the three, and Wolf is the newest and most challenging.

At over 7,600 yards, Wolf is also the longest course in Nevada but Snow Mountain is quite lengthy as well at 7,146 yards. Dye incorporated his signature railroad-tie bunkers and water comes into play on seven holes. This risk-reward layout is known for having the best par-3s at the resort. One of these is the stunning 16th hole with its panoramic view of Sheep Mountain. It requires a long carry over water but the bailout area to the right provides a relatively easy up and down and the greenside bunkers don't usually come into play.

Also known as Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort - Nu-Wav-Kaiv Course.

Great Course, Great Value

Course was in great shape. Love the layout and the service was fantastic. Unfortunately it was a very windy day when we played which made the scoring difficult.

I can’t wait to play it again under normal weather conditions.

This is the course to play

As a local, yes, I can play other places for lower prices, but nothing compares to Paiute!
The course is great, staff is always awesome, and I believe it's the best golf in the Las Vegas area.

AMAZING- top 5 public course I have played

If you have not played here, Paiute needs to be on your short list of Vegas courses. Everything from the clubhouse to range to the quality of ALL the courses is simply amazing. Be prepared to play in windy conditions due to the open layout. Well worth the drive if you are staying near the strip!

Oasis in the desert

The Snow Mountian course is a true gem. The course is located in the middle of the desert. It is truly a desert oasis. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens are well-manicured. The course is challenging, but the layout and beauty of the course lessen the sting of the challenge. The pro shop and restaurant easily cause you to forget you are in the heart of the desert, and the staff is the best. I highly recommend any and all visitors to the Vegas area to enjoy a round of golf at The Paiute Golf Resort.
