About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Painful round of golf
I’m not one to write reviews very often, but I feel I have to in this case. Bottom line: one of the least enjoyable rounds of golf I’ve ever played.
The course is absolutely packed, and most of the play is by complete beginners who have no idea what they’re doing. That in itself would be acceptable if the staff did anything to monitor pace of play: that wasn’t the case, and it took us 2:40 to make it through the front nine. And to make matters worse, the staff asked us to suspend play ten minutes before sunset, saying the course gates would be locked in fifteen minutes (no mention of this before we started playing, of course).
The greens are completely pockmarked as it seems almost no one fixes pitch marks, and all water features are full of floating garbage and disgusting looking.
A complete waste of time and money in my opinion. You can get much better golf around Vegas for the same money Desert Pines is charging.
Overall poor
Read the reviews of this course didn’t seem that bad. I started driving there and had to drive through a not so great neighborhood which is no big deal. Grew up playing great courses in bad neighborhoods. Pulled in through a nice gate and saw a nice looking clubhouse and was pleased when I pulled in. The first Marshall was really nice and friendly as well as the front desk gentleman. After that it quickly started to going downhill. I wanted to grab a beer and a snack to start waited next to bar and nobody helped, I asked and they said they’d be right out, another 10 minutes or so and I just walked away to the driving range instead. The driving range area wasn’t bad actually. I went back and a really nice (Kimber) girl helped me out and got me a sandwich and a beer quick before I had to tee off which gave me a little satisfaction. I got to the putting green and was like shag carpet and all scuffed up. I was like well it’s a practice green no way it’s like this out there on the course. I was wrong it was putting on fairways out there. To no fault of the course whoever was in front of us was dragging feet and hitting the green with something and destroying the greens. Tee boxes we not the best either. The course layout was actually pretty fun so I should give them more credit but the price I paid for the quality I got was terrible. I would not come back. Next time I will pay more or play further away to have better quality. Overall if the greens were even somewhat nice I would maybe go back but paying over $100 greens should be way nicer. Also to finish off
Most everything was great greens could have been a little quicker but it's a fun course to play.
Rolling hills & fairways, fun course!
Great course for the money, some good views, fun holes, challenging greens...
Excellent time.
We arrived quite a bit early, but were sent out as soon as we were ready. The course was in impeccable shape, and we were able to play a nice leisurely round without crowding. Staff on the course and in the bar/grill were friendly and quick. Lunch was included in our rate. Great value and certainly worth returning to play again.
Beautiful!
The course was great! It has a amazing view of downtown Las Vegas from the 1st tee box. The course was in great condition and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
Great place but narrow!!
This place is tight, very narrow fairways. The course was in amazing condition and I finished 16 holes pretty quick. The last two holes took about 30 minutes because I caught up to a foursome of beginners. I would highly recommend this course. I few miles from Fremont street (old vegas).
Ok for a warm up for the value
Course was short, fairway grass was not what we traditionally see, knarly. Not much of a challenge for good golfers. Slow greens.
Decent Round with Lunch Included
Not a bad course, always plays the same although they overseeded a couple weeks ago. Fairways were nice, greens on the slow side but tee boxes were like the rough.
BriPat
Course layout was good but greens were fuzzy due to over seed. Still enjoy the round and the staff was very accommodating specially Sandra in guest services.
Course was good
The course was a bit challenging but very nice. The only thing was we had to walk most of it because it was cart path only with the carts
