Canyon Gate Country Club

An affordable country club with all the amenities you can find in other pricier clubs. The course is fairly short, but challenging with many water features, narrow fairways and tough greens. The three tiered green on number 16 is a great example of hitting the green and facing a difficult putt, especially when the pin is in the back. Winter golf can also be tough as the balls will roll into water hazard on #9 and #10. The practice range with new matts are great when they're in play. Overall the golf experience is very good for the price.

I've spent the last two winters in Las Vegas and decided to join Canyon Gate. As a non-resident this course is one of the best values in town. You can play a 3 - 31/2 hour rounds at a private gated course that's always in great condition. We wrestle with the green speeds on uphill/downhill putts and our sand game needs to improve but if you want a fun golf experience and be greeted and helped by a friendly, courteous and professional staff then this is a great choice. The food is also very good with great service.

The weather absolutely sucked (gusts up to 50 mph), but we were committed since we prepaid. Good thing the weather wasn't cold.

The course features mild elevation changes, doglegs, water hazards and undulating greens. Overall, I found the layout fun and challenging (wind wrecked my game so I won't comment on how I played). The greens really need to be addressed as it rolled bumpy, slow and patchy. I would not be happy if this was my club. The water hazards were placed in the right places to make the shot selection interesting. Also, the trees really hid the view of the city surrounding the course which is a nice feature. Overall a good place to visit.
