One of the pioneers in Las Vegas golf, Painted Desert Golf Course is a 1987 Jay Morrish design has golfers shooting at targets in the desert.

Painted Desert has maintained its place in the Sin City golf community through all its changes by putting on an emphasis on course conditioning. Just because your greens are almost two decades old does not mean they cannot be in better shape than many of the new kids on the block.

The desert is the focus here, but Morrish also works in a few lakes as obstacles.

"This golf course is a very friendly layout and you can score here without having a feeling of imminent doom on every hole," John Scappatura said. "We are a bit off of the beaten path, which means that we almost always have availability for tee times. Everyone who does make the trip out here though appreciates our conditioning, the price, and the friendly atmosphere."

Sub Par Experience

Well the course has sure been let go since I played there 3 years ago. To bad as it has as a great course to play. Still fun to play need to ds a bit f up keep. Members and staff a little on the rude side. Stuffy attitudes for a low budget course. Price was a little high for the amenities and course conditions.

Late statt tee tomes to clos

Be prepared to get out late as they have tee times every 7 minutes! The course is in great shape but fairways are narrow and if missed, you will be in gravel and rocks so bring a beat up 7 iron to chip out!

Bring Your "A" Game!

This course will test every shot in your bag. The fairways are narrow, so be accurate with your tee shots. The greens are fast, and dangerous. A fun track and worth the price, so bring your "A" game! The views are spectacular, and everyone was friendly from start to finish. We'll be back!

Frost Delay

Our 9:22 tee time didn't happen until after 11. Yes there was a frost delay, but the handling of getting their Tournament group ahead of everyone wasn't done wisely. With the said delay, they still shotgun started the group & then were slow to put the normal groups out. No offers to compensate for the delay were offered and, if a refund was the course of action a Golfer would want to take, that refund could only be done by the course manager, who of course wasn't there.
