A traditional golf course in the land of faux waterfalls, shooting fountains and mountains, Las Vegas National Golf Club is actually part site of Tiger Woods' first win on the PGA Tour.

Las Vegas National was part of the rotation of the Las Vegas Invitational when Woods broke onto the Tour in 1996. Tiger actually won the Las Vegas Invitational (then a 90-hole, multi-course event) with a final round 64 on the private TPC at Summerlin track, erasing David Love III's four-stroke lead.

Average hackers will find a course with plenty of trees in the desert and five inventive par 3s that give National much of its character. This isn't desert golf. It's old school golf with palm trees and sand.

It is also very close to the Strip, just a few turns and about a 10-minute drive away. The area's built up around it with fast-food shops, but the Rat Pack era style remains alive within Las Vegas National's grounds.

"As you pull into the lot at Las Vegas National, the sense of the sixties is evident in the rectangular pastel colored stucco clubhouse that might have seemed modernistic back then, but now is a charming reminder of an architecturally dated style," TravelGolf.com writer Doug Saunders said.

Hard to Believe This Ever Hosted a Tournament

This course is terribly maintained and extremely overpriced. The greens were fairly nice, but the rest of the course was awful. Trash in the rough and waterways along with very scarce, patchy rough. This may have hosted PGA events in the past, but it is FAR from being at that level anymore.

Friendly

Overall the course was very good, staff were friendly, course condition was good. It's a lot more challenging then it appears. My only negative is the pace of play. No enforcement by the Marshalls.

Good Course Close to Strip

Coming to Vegas I was hoping to enjoy the weather and get a decent round in. Pace of play was abysmal, but everything else was pretty good, can't be too picky. Quick Uber from the strip. Easy and good quality rentable clubs. Check golfnow for best offers.

Lots of History

As a past PGA tour stop there is lots of history here and signs from time to time to tell the stories. I enjoyed that and wandering around the trophy area between the clubhouse and the restaurant. Not a particularly long course....other than the par 3's (X5) all seemed to playing 185 yards, or more. Winds were gusting up to at least 25 mph, so it made those holes even more interesting. Lots of bunkers protecting the greens which were running slow, but true. 5 minute drive from the strip - great for a quick fix!

Left disappointed

This was third round in 3 days of a golf trip. This was the most expensive of the 3 and ranked well below the other 2 courses we played. Nothing special about the course. Greens were in good shape, bunkers could use more sand as they were quite hard. $1 beer after the round was a nice touch!

We played Primm Valley - Desert (bought a Groupon which I think is still available) and Boulder Creek - Desert Hawk/Coyote. See my reviews for these. I also played Chimera a few years back, and it was very nice as well.

Residency

Well I wanted to play this course, but they thought I wasn’t being truthful about my residency. Recently transferred from CA and don’t have anything other than my purchase contract for my primary residence and they wouldn’t take that. I mean come on, I’m a single trying to play - use some common sense here.

Well worth the play. Course was in great shape for winter conditions. Greens were well maintained and pace was outstanding thanks to having a Host on the course. Staff was courteous, helpful and professional. Highly recommend this course.

Greens were ok. Tees and fairways were pretty beat up. Definitely a municipal type course. If you get a good deal, then it’s fine.

Bad tee off delay

It's a beautiful course. This is is my 3rd time playing here, but today I teed off at 12pm. I arrived at around 11am and got a small bucket of balls since I wanted to chip and putt as well. When i checked in at the front desk it seemed all normal. But when when I got to the starter at 11:50 he said there would be a 1 hour delay due to frost, why couldn't the person at the front desk tell me that? When I talked to Leo, the director of golf. He made me feel like it was my fault and that I have options of playing at other courses. Hmmm, maybe he doesn't appreciate his customers?

Awesome course

Overall, a very nice course. The staff is friendly and courteous and the course was immaculate. Pace of play was outstanding. Host on the course was very helpful. No delays and as a foursome, we completed 18 in under 4 hours. Hats off to this course because it's one of the best I've played in the Valley.

I with my friend had a great time over there.

Everything was good except some traffic ahead.

Some ladies had used manual cart instead electric cart that caused traffic as time goes.

Slow Play

I love this course and it's always in great condition. However, TOO MANY fivesome's which makes for a 5 and half hour round. Started at 11:30 and unable to complete 18 before dark. Highly recommend they get a Course Marshall to keep play moving. On hole #3 two fivesome and a foursome waiting to Tee-off. Many tourist and they're having fun and unaware how quick darkness set in. I will NEVER play it again on weekends. One of my favorite courses.
