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.

Difficult, Windy, and Wet.

Course was excellent. There were a lot of reseeding and repair which meant crazy watering of these areas which sometimes made it difficult to traverse the course and use the tee boxes. It was a very windy day which made the course even more difficult, and it is already quite difficult. Plus whoever made the pin placements on this particular day is a Sadist. Altogether it was an excellent visit.

Very nice course that is perfectly maintained. Course is not long but challenging. Staff allowed me to go out early and get my round in quickly. Narrow fairways give you a side hill lie should you be off center. Greens were in good shape and rolled true. Will go back soon.

tough course

This course is a lot of fun. Not easy, but fun. Undulating greens and tight tree lined fairways. The course gives you lots of choices and and can bite you no matter what you decide. Play it safe or go for it.

a good play

It's a good play. The fairways were in good condition. The greens were receptive. and the staff were very friendly. A typical Pete Dye course, and they are always fun to play.

Cool Track, Rough Greens

Really neat track in Vegas, tee to green it was in good shape, greens were poor but I don't believe it was due to a lack of upkeep. Golfers simply don't fix divots and use sand in the fairways, pretty disappointing.

Course is playable while still being a challenge, all skill levels can enjoy it.

A Great Place To Play

When your in Las Vegas do not miss the chance to play this course. I come to Vegas ever August for 3 weeks and play 12rounds of golf. I have played most of the courses in the city and this one is first class. Everyone I encountered was very friendly, the driving range has a cover over the hitting area so you don't have the sun beating down on you, The tee boxes, fareway and greens were in great shape, can not comment on playing out of the bunkers as I did not hit any balls into the many well placed bunkers. I also got a great price on a hot deal from Golf Now $10 .
