Sun Mountain at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort

I had been told that all three courses at Paiute are great and they were right, at least with the Sun Course. It's a fair drive from the strip (solid 30+ min) but that's what's so great about it. You are away from the city, in the middle of the desert with incredible mountain views. It's really a nice getaway from the glitz of the strip. The course was in great shape. Tough layout, quite challenging, greens rolled true and fairly fast. Not tour fast but fast enough for non-tournament play. Just fast enough to make you nervous. The different tee sets really do offer a nice difference for various levels of golfers. Beautiful clubhouse and very friendly staff.

One of my buddies had his clubs shipped to the course and they are sitting waiting for him upon arrival. When we left they said they would take care of everything for him and they arrived back at his house safely. Another guy rented and really liked the TaylorMade RBZs. Sweet driver.

Great all around!

Only one word comes to mind for this Golf Facility
SPECTACULAR. The condition of the course was much better than anything I have played close to the Las Vegas Strip.. It was an easy drive out rt. 95. The staff were very professional and offered advise when asked. The clubhouse was beautiful, well designed,the food was tasty and the servce was great. I like to play new courses every time I travel to Vegas, but with three differnt courses here,I think I have to look no further for a great Vegas golf
experience.

overall, good!
however, the back nine was pretty much the same same as the front nine, i think...

By far the best course we played in five days of golf in Vegas.

We enjoyed the golf outing at Paiute. Golfed Sun and Mountain course in the same day.

The marshall wanted us to hurry our game as a foursome - when we were almost done at the 15th hole and not quite yet at 3 hours of playtime. We didn't quite understand why as it was a good pace. But a twosome behind us was complaining - so we got the whip! With 3 holes left in 3 hours of time already played, we felt it was an unjust push to appease the twosome behind us.

We had an excellent time playing Tuesday morning. The conditions, pace of play, and the staff made our experience very enjoyable. We'll be back for more!

a great course for all levels. no tricky holes, just good golf.

Likes:
Challenging layout
Very good condition
Superb, smooth, true greens- put it on line and it stays on line

Dislikes:
Pace of play on the slow side- a few reachable par 5's contribute to the slow play, and we played the yellow tees (next to last set)

The course was in great shape and everyone on staff was very helpful and friendly. We had an afternoon tee time and although it was 100 degrees, the light breeze made it feel cooler. I look forward to returning and playing this course again.

Really liked playing here, wind conditions make the course play longer, on most holes you better use more club. The wind made it feel much cooler than the ambient temperature which was great. We played the sun course and would love to play the other two next time out.

Played the Sun Mountain course during twilight (2:30 tee time). Great pace, gorgeous course in excellent condition, staff extremely friendly and attentive to your needs BEFORE even asking. Will definitely recommend and be back to play the other two courses.

The staff were extremely helpful, wildlife was abundant and course holes were brilliant and well mark. Amazing golf excursion.

Our past spring visits had us experience howling winds and unseasonably cool temperatures, but not this time. No extra layers necessary. Great course conditions, bright sunny day, and we were joined by a local restauranteur who owns a small chain. We enjoyed a complimentary breakfast the next day thanks to that single-digit handicapper who just boomed 'em off the tees and was sinking putts from everywhere. Afterwards, we hit the 19th hole and enjoyed our favorite adult beverages. Definitely worth the drive from the strip and be sure to use your GPS in your car or phone so you don't miss your exit near downtown like I did ! Looks like this will be one of our permanent fixtures on our annual spring trip. And deals on GolfNow help buy a beverage from the beverage cart.

When we check into the Pro Shop assistant did greet us but never did mention they had a tournament on our course to let us know the play might be slow. We got to hole 10 and had 3 groups waiting to tee off including us. My son call the Pro Shop however no one answer the phone. He call again on hole # 11 and informed the person who he talk to there was a big back up He felt the Pro Shop didn't seem to care. The Ranger finally came around when we were on hole # 13 by the putting green went right by us without even stopping or saying he took care of slow play. Need to train your staff how to handle customers. The sad thing the other 3 all worked at a casino and a lot of people always ask them where is a good place to play. Took us over 5 hours to play!

A friend recommended Paiute to me and I wasn't disappointed. The course was in great condition and the course was challenging without being ridiculous. The views were fantastic. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend.

This place is absolutely fantastic!!!! You cannot beat the views. Staff was super friendly, the course in great shape and the weather superb. I played it 3 days in a row - May 1 it was windier than I had ever seen it (steady30-40 mph winds). May 2 was picture perfect - barely any wind at all. May 3 was what you would expect from a course so out in the open - light breezes with occasional gusts. Very challenging, but if you can keep it in the green stuff (fairway or rough) you can shoot a good score. I cannot believe I never played here before, and can't see playing anywhere else in Vegas after.

Paiute has 3 excellent courses, always in pristine condition and a great value when purchased thru Golf Now

No homes or condos on any course and very player friendly

I've played all three courses here last year and played again during my visit to Las Vegas in April 2013. It's very quick and easy to get to from downtown LV. I really enjoy this golf course. Beautiful views. Drive placement is critical, or you will lose a lot of balls.

Played on a sun-drenched Sunday. Pace of play was a little slow, but not terrible for a Sunday. Facility is absolutely beautiful. Staff is excellent. I think the Sun and Wolf courses (played Wolf in the afternoon) would be awesome if there were just some sort of shade around the tee boxes. We ended up waiting on the tee most every hole and there are absolutely NO TREES. We all know that the Vegas heat is manageable if you can just get in the shade. By the end of the day, we felt baked. Great layout, well maintained.

It took about 25 minutes drive but trust me it's worth it. A little warning on green aerification this time of year.
