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 for a reasonable price

Great course but need to find the nice pockets of weather during the summer. Staff was friendly. Course was in great condition. Pace was not an issue.

Best Public Courses in Vegas

All three of these courses are immaculate, the greens are true and fast. The bunkers are full of white soft like any good fourth club or great tour venue that will cost a lot more than these courses. The pro shop staff is friendly and helpful with everything and anything you could possibly want within reason. There are Marshall’s that keep the courses playing at a decent pace for a public golf course on a holiday weekend.

Terrible Marshals

First the good, absolutely amazing course in an amazing setting. No water restrictions so the course was pure in every way. Great clubhouse, cart staff was great.

The bad, played the round in a 3 1/2 hour pace and were harassed by the marshals a half dozen times to hurry up. Local's behind us were very rude and the situation made the round very unenjoyable and stressful. Really poor on their staffs part and the only reason I'd go back is because the course is so amazing.

If you go here be ready to be rushed the whole round, even felt rushed as a quick golfer.

Poor scheduling

Everything was fantastic but we caught up with a 40 player shotgun after 3 holes. Waiting on every shot makes for a really bad experience. Over the years I have probably played Paiute 40-50 times and never had such a slow pace.

6 Stars!!! Absolutely The Best Golf Experience Ever

The course was amazing and in pristine condition (better than most country clubs). Greens had been punched, but putts rolled true and fast. It was clear that the superintendent was knowledgeable and put in the time to keep the course in great condition. Fairways and Tees also were perfect with little indication of use.

I was greeted at the pro shop in a friendly manner and the pro spent time providing a course overview. He answered my questions knowledgeably and thoroughly. Directed me to tee and practice facilities without being asked and with no charge for range balls which is a rarity in my world.

However, with all this, the best part was the Guest Services. I was in a hurry when I left and inadvertently left a small bag with lots of expensive equipment including my golf watch, rangefinder, phone charger, etc. I called the next day from the airport as we were leaving and let them know of my loss. They found the bag, mailed it me and I received it within a matter of days. I asked if I could reimburse them for the costs, but they would not accept reimbursement.

I will long remember and recount this story for friends singing the praises of Paiute. And when I return to Vegas, I will book a trip to play the other two courses at the resort.

This was tops of any round I have played over a 40 yeas playing golf. Customer service at its finest at a beautiful and fun course.
