Desert Pines Golf Club
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.

Save your time and money. This is not the place to play!!!
I have play this course twice in the past. It was in much better shape than now. The greens are great shape but the traps have little no sand and the fairways are dry and need watering. It appears to be poorly maintained and managed. Trash was blowing throughout the course. I quit the round after two holes and drove around the course to inspect the remaining holes. The staff and golf pro was rude when I discussed the situation and asked for my money back.. The driving range was also closed. The so call pro indicated that the course is a 3.5 on a 5 scale. He must not ever hit the sand since the traps had no sand, just sandy dirt harden by the sun. He does not know his xxx from his horse ... and other things.
I did pay for the Wynn course, but I did expect better.
As a 30+ year hacker, find a better place to play, not this dump.
Thank you for the great rating. If there are any details you’d like to share about what we are doing well, we’d love to learn more! Elijah G. - AGM

Awesome layout
I've played most of the public courses in vegas and this is absolutely my favorite layout. I understand if you're from out of town and paid 150 and expect perfect greens with no pitch marks or and meticulously maintained bunkers, you're not going to find this here, but what you will find 18 unique and interesting holes. Short course that is possible to bully but you do need to be accurate otherwise you can get canton quite a bit of trouble. Almost ever hole is risk/reward. Every time I visit Vegas this will be a the top of my list.
Hi Chris, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our unique and interesting course layout. We appreciate your understanding of the course conditions and are glad to hear that you consider us a top choice in Vegas. We look forward to welcoming you back! Elijah G. - AGM

My tee time was 806 and there was a twosome just ahead of me. But there was hardly anyone on the course. I was by myself and able to work on my game with no one behind me. Course win good shape!

Don't go now
The course has looked better in the past and now it is overgrown with weeds. The pace was extremely slow for a Friday. There were people giving lessons to kids on the course and kids with no clubs with sometimes five to six on the putting greens. Called clubhouse 2x to inform what was going on and no one came out.

Desert Pines Review
We enjoy playing this track but did get stuck behind a group outing which obviously backed things up.
Played in the afternoon, so as previous reviews, the slower it gets.
Course is short but is really good condition, tee to green. Greens really rolled nice for us on this day.
Also, the cart we had had was fine, with no rips and worked fine as I did notice previous reviews noting rips, etc.
Hi Ozzie, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the condition of the course and had a nice experience with the cart. We apologize for any delays caused by the group outing and appreciate your feedback. We hope to see you again soon! Elijah G. - AGM

Get some better Marshalls
Man I swore I would never come back to this place, but wanted to give it a try again. First off I knew we would have two riders with our group of four. I called ahead Monday before the tee time and was told it would be no problem. Show up Saturday and now it’s “oh we don’t have an extra cart, two of you will have to walk.” Not a big deal we did. Then we get to the third hole it’s a par 5 the sign says “when they are over the bank you are clear”. Meanwhile we played the white tees it was only 250ish to clear so we wanted to wait. The Marshall has the nerve to ride up on us get out of his cart walk on the tee box and tell us to hit, told him it’s 250, he said I was 112 pounds soaking wet no way I clear. So I stepped up and smacked it right next to the group over the ridge, my buddy then proceeded to clear the group on the ridge. Marshall didn’t apologize, he then decided to insult the three women with us joking like we were going to be slowed down and be a distraction. This place has zero class their Marshall’s are old and think they know everything with zero respect for the game and safety of the players on the course. The first time I played this course last year the Marshall came up to me 150 out with a foursome on the green and told me to hit.
Just go find another place to play. The Marshalls take any fun you’re having. Pay and extra 15-20 bucks and go elsewhere to enjoy your round.
