Las Vegas National Golf Course
About
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.

This course has some long par 3's
The course and the price is great. Some of the greens had some bad spots, but if I hadn't had to putt through it I wouldn't have noticed.
The only blemish to the whole experience is that the pro shop rep charged my card for the single rate, but wanted both players in my group to be charged to the same card. So he charged the double rate. Not looking, went ahead and signed the receipt. Later on it was noticed that the rep hadn't cancelled the single rate, so I ended up being charge for three players versus the two players rate. Currently in the process of getting that refunded. Hopefully!
Nice Tight Layout
Tee to green, the course was in excellent shape. Greens had been sanded within the last few weeks which made them difficult to put. Tough pin placements throughout.
Amazing
This is one of Vegas's oldest course and for value for money there is nothing to match it.
Course in great condition we played around noon and though very hot,we had a wonderful experience.
Fantastic service from the staff in the pro shop thru to the bar where we had a wonderful breakfast.
Will definitely return to this terrific course in the near future
A nice challenge
Very long and challenging course. Plenty of bunkers, lots of sand. The greens were challenging so you have to be on your game. It was 107f when we played thank goodness the cart girl came by several times during the 18 holes. We will definitely play the course again. Unfortunately the club house was closed when we finished our round, but there is a nice little pub just down the street.
BRING WATER
Long ball hitting is fine but you must be able to work the ball if your driving average runs more than 250 carry.
Old
This was probably a nice course 20 years ago but needs care and updating now.
Good layout
Very nice layout and challenging greens. Place is in need of some tender loving care. Greens hadn't been mowed for days and the place was looking rough.
Not impressed
This course did not live up to the talk of the previous reviews. The fairways were in terrible shape, lots of garbage on the corse, very slow play, greens had been punched but the amount of sand on the greens made putting almost impossible to score properly. Not happy what so ever.
Aerated but playable
Apart from the course being aerated it was a decent course with some doglegs and well placed pins to keep it interesting. Otherwise I did find the course to be relatively flat with not many incline/declines.
Weather was great albeit wet for a Vegas summer.
A Diamond in the Rough
Played on a Monday at 8:20a.m. and the pace of play was great. Even though the front nine was closed for aerating, we were able to play the back nine twice. A very nice young lady named Rachel took us to hole 18 to start so our pace of play was excellent! Rachel and the rest of the staff were all very nice. They also give you a free bucket of balls to hit prior to your round. The course itself was in great shape. Would definitely play there again.
AMAZING ROUND
I am not a great golfer, breaking a 100 for me is a great day out. This is a fantastic course with hard holes and plenty of challenge. Long course in amazing shape. We played on a day that the temp hit 115. PLAY THIS COURSE
Greata value and close to strip
Had not played in years. I was very suprised and pleased with the condition of the course. Its priced reasonably and is not crowded. Its a must for licals and visitors.
Excellent for an extremely nice course close to Las Vegas
Overall course in great shape. Played in July so in order for green to be maintained they were a little slow.
Staff could not have been more accommodating.
If you have time restrictions would definitely recommend.
Was playing as single so staff paired with great partner.
Great Time
Price was great, staff was even better. Will play this course again and again.
Nice layout....
The course has challenges and rewards....
Play It Again, Sam!
Thoroughly enjoyed the round. Will play it again. A former PGA tour location. Is historical and a challenge but not a crazy challenge with blind shots or postage stamp landing locations surrounded by desert. Looking forward to the next round.
Slow play burnt greens
Walked off after 14 . Greens were fried and slow play . 4 two somes in front of us ..,only reason they get play because it's close to the strip
Good golf
I arrived early, was able to hit balls on the range (which was included with the green fees). I was paired up with another single and were able to get out on the course early. Pace of play was very quick, we did not see the group in front of us. We finished in just over 3 hours. The course was in good shape and of course being in Vegas it was warm. The cooler on the golf cart was filled with ice and two bottles of cold water. I would have liked to try one of the new surf board golf unit because it looks really fun. But you have to remember that you are standing the whole round with no shade from the hot sun, also the board has no place for a cooler to put water.
The staff was great as I was met right at my vehicle in the parking lot. Was given a ride to the club house and when I walked out my clubs were on the cart and ready to go.
A Great time
Loved, loved, loved the course! Beautiful facility with exceptional staff! Great shape with a nice practice range and beautiful scenery.
