Rating 71.1

Desert Pines Golf Club is often referred to as "The Pinehurst" of Las Vegas. It offers a Carolina sandhills experience, yet is conveniently located just minutes from downtown or the Strip. This Dye design features thousands of mature pine trees lining the well-groomed fairways where white sand bunkers protect large, undulating, bent grass greens. Because of the large number of pine trees, often times this course is cooler than other courses in the heat of the summer. Although there are no forced carries, water comes into play on 9 of the 18 holes.

Nice target golf

Not the longest course but a nice test. I hit every club in my bag today. Outstanding service in the Covid era with multiple safety precautions taken. Course was in very nice shape. Greens were very receptive/ soft and putted relatively true despite being recently aerated. As a bonus, had a great day after being paired up with some wonderful folks who made the round a joy.

Short but very demanding

It’s very soft right now. My ball plugged a few times, and drives only got a couple feet of roll out. Makes it play a lot longer. Tight layout that demand you hit it straight and play smart. Greens are super slow tho. Hard to get used to. Guys working their weren’t very friendly and you had to pay for a driving mat tee so you could hit drives at the range. The tee was like 6 inches tall so without a knife I’m not sure what good it would do unless you’re a psycho and tee ur ball up Higher than Charlie sheen. I really like the course tho so I will be back.

Good value

Course was in very good condition. I had forgotten how undulating the greens are - it's the course's biggest defense. Plays short from the tips (only 6200 yards), and the course is landlocked, so no opportunity for lengthening. Lots of opportunities to hit less than driver from the tee, and the fairways are very tight with proper bunkering and water hazards. Some desert area between holes, but most of the time, the ball ends up bouncing to the neighboring hole over getting stuck in the desert.

Slow day

July 12th was a very hot and humid day. Course play was very slow, idk if it was due to it being over booked or what but it must have been the longest round that I have ever played. Didn’t help that it was a really hot day. Course conditions were perfect.

Heart of Vegas

One of the best values that I found.greens and fairways are all nice and lush and green and well manicured.

Plenty of shade when you need to get out of the hot sun.

Diamond in Vegas

I really enjoyed this golf course. The price was very reasonable and the course was in excellent condition considering the hot weather that the city has been experiencing. The course is by no means long but is still enjoyable. All in all it was a very memorable experience.

Tough Greens

Pace of play was very good (4 hours) and on a busy Sunday with a lot of wind. Course was in good condition. The holes are straightforward but the greens are tough.

Staff was great. Took good health measures at the club house and driving range. Beverage service was en pointe.
