Desert Pines Golf Club

Beautiful course....with lush greens and carpet fairways.

I realize it was St. Patrick’s Day but having tee times every eight minutes is too much. We had to wait on every single hole except one. The sign in the cart says pace of play should be four hours. Took us four hours and 40 minutes. The Ranger came by three times but could not get the pace of play to where it should be. When you spend over $100 for a tee time your expectations go up. Range balls were extra. Half the bunkers were solid sand. Its not that hard to rake them. There is no GPS. On the ride over in the cab he told me it was a very tight course which is true. Breakfast in the restaurant was awesome , Debby was a wonderful server. They do give you 2 bottle of water on the cart I also found pre paying in full a bit weird. I will never play again. Beverage server was pleasant and over worked , my fellow golfers had to call in to shop to get one on the back nine .

The winter grass they had was in great condition and the greens were great. This is a course that requires you to play strategically with a lot of irons off the tees and will penalize you for errant shots. Overall a really cool and fun course to play.

Course was in great shape for public in Vegas. Short course bit greens is where you will get punished . You have to be on low side of hole . Staff was super friendly. Bring a range finder because the carts have nothing. That’ is my only complaint. For a Saturday we played in 4 hours and would have been better if it weren’t for the 4 some in front of us who thought they were on PGA Tour. Had a beginner with me so it was perfect length for her. Going back again today. The value was great . 1//2 the price of all the other courses in the city. 15-20 minutes from strip.

We rented golf clubs because their website said all their clubs were up to date , but the clubs were old, beat up. Mix matched Calloway and tailer made mix. When we got there, it was 30min delay. And very slow play. Marshall was driving around, but did not have groups speed up play. We were literally 2 groups behind every hole. Very disappointed for the amount of money spent to play at this course. I will never go back.

I played the course Friday and Saturday. Most of the pins were in the same location. The greens were slow, Lots of garbage blowing around the course and in the water. Layout was good and challenging but just not worth $150 which didn’t include range balls.

It is a little tight so it will test your accuracy.

Great Pete Dye layout. Greens could have been a little faster. Overall positive experience here.

Shorter course but somewhat challenging. It sits very close to downtown LV. The course was in fairly good condition for February. Staff was friendly and helpful. A bit pricey for a "Hot Deal" at $70.

I was tired of a cold/snowy streak in Denver so I grabbed a GolfNow Hot Deals tee time (with some leftover promo codes and credits I'd had built up) at Desert Pines, and I am so glad I did.

You won't feel as if you're coming up on a amazing golf course--just stuck in a rather busy, commerce-laden urban area of Las Vegas off the strip--but you will be doing just that. The first thing I want to mention is the people--this course is absolutely dedicated to having "more than enough" people to attend to your needs. Three (3) people at the check-in station, 3 people in the restaurant bar, 2 men in the pro shop, and perhaps most importantly you see the Beverage Cart possibly 6-to-9 times throughout the day!

I really enjoyed the course. I'm a 10.9 handicap and I played the 6,400-yard White Tees; while it was my first time even SWINGING a club in 2022, I think it would have been a challenge even if I was doing well. Green undulation was challenging but not off-putting, and course knowledge would have helped. Having said that, I thought there were plenty of Par 4 holes where you could take out the BIG STICK and really have some fun, attempting to get a short chip as your 2nd shot.

One more thing on the greens--the condition of these were just immaculate. I wish I knew the type of grass, but I don't.

Last thing--the driving range is a nice amenity to this place (check out the course's pictures). It is a 30-second walk to the driving range unlike so many other courses.

I'm contemplating a return to Desert Pines very soon, even though I live in Denver!

I was visiting Las Vegas and I decided to play a round of golf here. The must had over booked because the pace was super slow! For $99.00 I only got through 9 holes in 3+ hours.
