Rating 73.0

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.

These are The Only Courses that Deserve 5-stars

This Pete Dye design was a delight. While not as quintessentially Pete Dye the greens reminded me of every Dye course, fast and they can hard to read if you're anticipating a big breaking putt. What gives this course a sixth star is the incredible mountainous vistas of massive alluvial vans contrasting with this challenging course. The winds today added an additional 10 strokes.

Well Worth the 20 Minute Drive from the Strip

So peaceful, serene. Well laid out golf course in the middle of the desert....no traffic noise or houses. Great separation by the desert from other fairways. Felt like we were alone on the course until we caught up to the foursome ahead. Pace was good.

Course was in great shape with fast, true rolling greens. Lots of roll on the fairways with yardage markers every 50 yards + cart GPS. Staff from pro shop check-in, to cart girl, to starter, to marshall are super friendly and are most willing to help. All around great day with lovely scenery.

Loved the views!

Great experience all-around. The course staff from the front desk to the outside services were very nice and accommodating. The courses are tough if you miss fairways when you get in the desert areas but I was fortunate to find my 3 shots that went into the waste area.

The greens were fast but extremely fair. The maintenance team does an amazing job keeping the grass despite the desert conditions. The attention to detail with grass up against event the cart paths really stood out for me.

The only tough variable that I didn't have is wind. If the wind was heavy when I played it would have been really challenging.

Fav of the Three Tracks at Paiute

Three 18 holes of golf in the middle of nowhere? Why not. Played on a Wed AM during Thanksgiving week. Fun layout and well kept. Greens were little sandy. Of the 3 tracks, Snow is my fav, just challenging enough but still keeping it fun. Few risk and reward holes. And not every green is elevated like the Wolf.

A Vegas Oasis

Played here as our final course on a golf vacation and definitely saved the best for last. It is about a 20 minute drive from downtown LV and is in the middle of nowhere. From the bag drop to check-in to dealing with the starter, everything was top notch. The course was in fantastic shape with even the rough being green (as opposed to other courses we played where the rough was dormant). The greens were quick and consistent and rolled true. The bunkers were the best we played on our trip, with soft sand and no rocks in them. There is a great range with unlimited balls, as well as a practice chipping area and putting green that matched the speed and roll on the course. The course was very fair with a lot of holes daring you to cut off some distance, but paying the price if you didn't execute. We will be back again (and trying the other courses there) on our next golf trip.

Another Great Golf Course

Friendly staff. Unlimited range balls. Great layout cut out of the desert. Plush fairways and super fast greens. Teed off on time and finished within 4 hours. Course was not as tough as the Wolf course but the wind was blowing hard which made it a challenge. Overall excellent experience at Paiute Snow Course. We will definitely return to play again.

WOW!!!! What a course

Took my son to Vegas for his 30th birthday he is not a big gambler but loves to golf. We had a 11:57 tee time and we got there early and used the driving range along with the putting area and chipping area, Got to tee box around 11:30 just ready to hang out till our tee time. As it turned out we got to go out early. Got to play with a couple of great guys Jay & Rick. What a beautiful course. We played Snow and only paid $38ea. Everthing about the round was great. Thanks, for helping us celebreate his Birthday
