Painted Desert Golf Club

I really liked this course...at least 14 holes of it. My biggest complaint is that it took us 4 hours and 15 minutes to finish 14 holes. This was a Saturday tee time, so I calculated a 4.5 hour round. We had a 12:12 tee time. Because of a 5:30 evening reservation in downtown Las Vegas, we left the course at 4:30 pm., after finishing hole 14 to pack up our bags, and get on the road. It was getting dark, and there was no sign of the pace picking up. On the back nine, the course marshal came by and said he told the slow groups to speed up...I didn't notice any change in the pace.

The course was tight, and narrow on some holes, and challenging with over the water shots. Target golf, shot placement, and distance accuracy are all required on this course. The greens were fast and smooth, with true breaks. I really enjoyed the course,

Course in good shape but slow pace. Tried calling the grill before round and on 8th hole couldn't get an answer. Went in at the turn waited 5 minutes still nobody working even tho people were drinking at the bar. Tough to get service!

Fun course for all skill levels. Excellent layout with beautiful views. Can’t wait to get back to Vegas and play this one again

I’ve played this course a few times and I don’t remember the outdated mess of it: the fairways and greens were very hard…lots of roll and you couldn’t stop a ball on the greens. The sand traps were never raked. Hang on tight while on cart paths: it’s like going off-roading. Paths are very rough by cracked concrete, upgrowing roots, bare spots, etc. I’m not sure even a resident’s rate (which I got with a coupon) will bring me back.

More than 5600 yards from the forward tees for my wife as a 20 handicap was a challenging day of golf, but course was enjoyable and greens in pretty good shape - medium speed. Course greeter, cart staff and restaurant staff were extremely cordial, helpful and pleasant - this made the experience that much better! Good value for the $ with a hot deal from golf now.

Nice course, good layout, fast greens. It was in good shape

Great course, two somes in front and in back of us slowed play down on every hole. Starte should have grouped these two somes together. Otherwise nice challenging course to play.

5 hours to play this course while waiting on every tee and second shots. Marshall was seen 4 -5 times, but was absolutely no help in speeding things up. Second time we saw him he blamed in on a ladies group. Third time he blamed it on a very slow group of 3.

Greens were in great shape, fairways coming in nicely after overseeding.

Our round took 5 and a half hours. We were backed up on each hole about 3-4 groups. It was torture. The course was in good condition, the staff was not very welcoming but atleast the weather was nice.

Enjoyed the course. Slow on the front nine and then no delays on the back. Geese are a problem for some of the greens but not a major deterent. Friendly staff in the pro shop and Lisa the bartender was awesome. Will definitely play here again.

A bit of a drive but a very solid choice. Fairways were in excellent shape! Greats were in good shape but somewhat slow. Sand traps are a mess - new sand needed as there are rocks and gravel in them etc, Staff very friendly and the restaurant pretty good.

My playing partner got injured and we couldn’t make the tee time. Called early in the morning to cancel. “24 hour cancellation policy, nothing we can do, bye”. Really? Guess they don’t care about their customers.
