Rhodes Ranch Country Club

Fairways, greens, rough, and tee boxes are all in great shape for a public course in February, so I just wanted to recognize the head greenskeeper and crew. Honestly better than TPC Summerlin that I played last week.

Rhodes ranch golf course is a forgiving and pleasurable course to play. Obviously you have to hit it somewhat straight. I'm a senior with a 15 handicap and I shot an 84 from the senior tees. The entire course from tee to green was in very good condition. Staff was very friendly. I'd definitely play this course again.

The course was great, we all had a really good time. The pace of play was nice, we didn’t feel rushed and never had to wait. The only thing that brought the rating down was the bartender was pretty rude when I bought drinks before the round and then when we called to try and order food at the turn she sounded annoyed about it

Overall..

Course and Greens in great shape.

Staff was excellent.

Lovely course, very green compared to most Las Vegas courses. Lower areas in front of greens are moist, so bring your higher bounce wedges. No ball washers on the carts or at the tee boxes, so pick up a couple wet cloths when you get your cart.

The course was in great shape greens rolled nice with about a 10 on the stemp. Range is off of mats. Pro shop was friendly. Starter was an idiot. He needs an attitude adjustment. If you want to loss business he is one person that will help with that. Pace of play was ok starting at 8:12 but definitely one that if you start after 9am it will be a long round. Marshall on the course is worthless. All he is there to do is look like he cares which he doesn't.

I enjoy Rhodes Ranch, to practice and eat, playing is a different story. Their practice area is legitimately one of the best in Vegas. They have an excellent restaurant with a killer Reuben and fries. The staff has some fantastic people who are super pleasant, accommodating, and good at their jobs. The course conditions are fantastic. The mountain views are gorgeous. And there are some seriously excellent holes!

But anytime I play it, there are always traffic jams all over the course, usually at the same problem areas, and I always end up either skipping a hole (or two) to get by extremely slow groups or spend half the round waiting, sandwiched by other parties. It’s frustrating to have marshalls go past you multiple times a round but see no real effect on pace, and it’s just not the relaxing experience you’d like from a round of golf when you are the meat in an overbooked sandwich.

Maybe I just need to give up playing it on the weekend, I honestly don’t know. If Rhodes Ranch could space out the tee times just a little bit I think it would do so much for the enjoyability of the golf course.

Hopefully they improve, because again, everything outside of pace of play is excellent here.

It was 42/45 degrees in the morning n cart girl (cart) didn’t hv coffee to offer, had to get it on the turn. Most girls offer to bring it nx time, not ur girl??

Staff seemed to tolerate rather than welcome guests. It’s a nice course, good shape, but had waiting on every hole. For the money, there are better choices in Vegas I think
