Course Highlights
The Pete Dye-designed layout delivers a genuinely challenging and rewarding round with undulating fairways, strategic bunkers, and rolling bent-grass greens. Exceptionally friendly staff and affordable pricing make this Las Vegas desert course a standout value.

About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 71
Length 6222 yards
Slope 137
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.

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.

First. Time at Desert Pines

Except for the greens the course was excellent. Greens had a lot of unfixed ball marks, were very slow and thus hard to read and had a lot of debris from recent winds.

Great

I’m 43 and 7hdcp I read the yelp reviews and it almost detected me from choosing this course but I do anyways thinking of how negative some people can be, This course was extremely fun, risk/reward factor was 9 out of 10 grass was very lush, greens are multiple undulations, not a long course but “watch the 3 putts!!” I just moved to Las Vegas and honestly plan to look into membership here!! Hit em str8 the rough is sand!!! Awesome course!!!

Fun day with the boys.

This course is challenging, you are rewarded or penalized for shots off the tee. The pace of play is as good as it gets in Vegas. The course was in excellent condition and all staff were friendly.

...And still one of the BEST!!!

Desert Pines management should charge consulting fees to help most other courses in Las Vegas get their act together. The Course and Staff are always great!!!
