Snow Mountain at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort

I have played many of the top 100 courses in the world and this course ranks right up there. The fairways and greens are tremendous and that all in a desert.

The only real complaint I have is the check-in staff were incredibly rude. Yelling at one of the players, arguing with another player. It was really something.

It might seem minor, but that's the only reason I gave it four stars. Fix this and its a 5 star in my books every day of the week!

If you’re playing golf in the Vegas area all 3 courses are worth playing. Being from the Sandhills area of NC people love to talk about Mike Stranz’ Tobacco Road. I would argue the layouts of these courses gives Tobacco Road a run for its money in regards to layout and the visual “trickery.” While there are no blind tee shots there are a lot of tee shots that will make you second guess your aim points and choice of club.

Undulations on the fairways provides the opportunity to hit a variety of shots that many other courses won’t give you. And playing in July the conditions were immaculate (not counting the wind but that’s part of playing the game).

Greens were fair in terms of speed and breaks. I would make the case that because of the course conditions being so good you almost trick yourself into thinking they are stimping at 15 which they were not when i played.

As for advice:

If you normally play tees with a yardage around 6500 but played this course from the blacks and it was the perfect distance. I used more of my clubs than i do in a typical round back east. You will get more distance if you’re used to playing at sea level. To that point sacrifice distance to keep the ball on the short grass. This being desert golf wayward drives or approaches that find the rocks are pretty much gone.

One example of the 3 great courses at Paiute. Always excellent conditions and just the right amenities. Very playable from the white tees. Highly recommend

One of my favorites when visiting Las Vegas. The conditions are always terrific. Greens are fast and yet receptive. Fairways and rough are lush and well maintained. Played in 3 1/2 hours in a threesome. The range and chipping/putting areas are outstanding too. Three great courses!

This course is perfect for the money. Staff was friendly. The pace of play was steady, even though the place is very busy. I enjoyed playing it. It is one of the more challenging courses around Vegas.

I loved this course. Everything was pristine. Greens were great. Not too fast or slow. They were sticky if you hit a high spinning shot into them they would stick. Beautiful scenery! Fairways, rough, fringes and greens were perfectly manicured. The staff was super. I would recommend it again and again. For the price, you can’t beat it.

In my top 3 hands down......wind makes it a challenge.....everybody is so humble .....I love it highly recommend

Best public golf courses in the Las Vegas area. Always in perfect condition. Wind may be unpredictable, but the quality of the golf course is not.

Courses are always in amazing shape and pace was outstanding for a mid morning round.

This was my fourth or fifth visit to Pauite and my second time playing Snow Mt. Our foursome was out for a week of Vegas golf, and this round was deemed our favorite. Conditions were superb. From tee to green, it's evident they put a lot of work into this course. Sun has a leisurely feel to the play. Great layout and some target golf, but plenty of wide fairway breathers, too. Pauite is also tops for food, bev, and service. We all agreed, next year we're hitting this facility twice.
