Desert Pines Golf Club

This is my second time to play this course. I try to play different courses; however, I forgot I played this course last year, and I accidentally booked it again.

The curse was in pretty good shape. The greens were fast; but, there were lots of un-repaired ball marks. I did my part and repaired at least two on every green.

The fairways were in really good shape...whenever I played in them! I gave this course a "somewhat challenging" rating because you must be accurate off the tee. The narrow fairways place a premium on well-positioned tee shots. The rough, which is desert bushes and white sandy gravel come in to play on almost every hole. The water holes are challenging too. My only other issue was with the bunkers, The amount of sand in the bunkers varies. I had two great bunker shots early in my round, On my third bunker, it felt like there was a good base layer of sand as I walked to my ball.; however, when I took my shot, I hit a hard bottom, and bounced my SW into the ball, flying the green...very frustrating! Another annoyance was the fowl feces..i.e. duck poop! It's on every fairway, and on some greens. Watch your step!

I marked the course down in the price category. I played some very nice courses for the price I paid here. I know that most of the courses in Las Vegas charge one fee for Nevada/Clark County residents, and a different fee for non-residents. This is a $40-$60 course...at best.

I'll go back if the price is adjusted for non-residents (unless I move to Las Vegas), and the bunkers are more consistent in sand composition..

The course layout is great. Not too long from the middle tees.

Nice course but you better be an accurate driver of the ball…it is narrow with some tough lies if you are offline

The staff was great and friendly they make you feel comfortable, I truly enjoyed the round and would be back very soon

Love it. It was a little more challenging because of over seeding which is par for the course.

Definitely will be back.

I believe Carlos? was the starter that morning and went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed.

See you again someday

A Pete Dye never disappoints you, but this was exceptional. The course knocked me down and kicked me. This is a great course to learn golf strategy. It was a pity the conditions were worse than bad.

I hope I will be able to play it again but in good condition.

Tee boxes and fairways were nice. Rough was too thick. Wasted time searching for good hit balls. Greens were not good. Sandy and bumpy. Slow roll and for price pretty disappointing. Course layout and pace interesting

The staff is always very friendly and helpful. But it was a huge turn off when I wanted to purchase the player's card but I couldn't get the $10 discount for that day. Does $10 mean that much to them? We won't be playing there as much as we used to.

I don’t generally write many reviews but in this case I feel it’s necessary. The layout is good despite being fairly short, however the potential to stretch it out a bit is there. The main issues were conditions and pace of play. I understand that the course recently over seeded and it takes a bit to get it into solid shape. The greens had pit marks all over plus were extremely bumpy and slow. They are in desperate need of a good sand top-dressing after tining or plugging. There were multiple plugged balls on the greens.

The fairways were so over-watered every single shot had chunks of mud to be cleaned off. The gripe I have is that they charged $150 for those playing conditions.

Then pace of play was atrocious because of a couple slow groups and the twosome in front of us don’t belong on a normal course with their ability level. They hit multiple times from every spot because their shots either dribbled a few yards or blasted out to the right terribly. Then they would be sitting waiting for greens to clear while nearly 200 yards out which they never hit a single shot that far the whole day. One of them was a kid who works at the course. They need to practice more on par 3 courses or pick up sooner on the holes. The kid even picked up one of my balls that went over a mound between holes and I would have never gotten it back if I hadn’t been right there looking before they left the tee box.

They had just opened it a few days before we were there so things were still a little rough. But all in all I will definitely go back.

Greens thrashed, not from regular annual maintenance but from play. Grass clippings everywhere! Your not hitting off grass, your hitting off grass clippings. But the staff is great!

To be charged $130 to play a course where the greens were unputtable is a shame. I had to putt with my hybrid they were so slow. Course could be fun, but the greens made in an round worth forgetting.

The course was over seeded and conditions were not the best. Was not that appealing to the eye.

The greens were so slow and poorly kept I wouldn’t pay $10 to play here let alone $130. Disgrace

If the staff is top notch. They just overseed it a couple of weeks ago. They warn you in advance of the conditions. The fairways were in very good shape .the greens were a little slow Just as they told us it would be. See you all soon.

It's a very nice and easy course nor very far from the Vegas strip. The course conditions were not ideal as they had recently done some maintenance work....and the greens were very slow.
