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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Great course & fun history.

Our first time at this course and we were pleasantly surprised. This course is in the heart of old Vegas, so we were a little skeptical as we neared the course. But, what a gem! Decent practice facilities, can hit off grass, practice the bunkers and chipping in odd lies and if you do., you'll benefit. Staff was great, golf cart girl made several rounds and we enjoyed a draft beer for the price of your score!!

Great company, fantstic weather and a good test of golf

My first round of golf on this trip and what a way to start! Even though I didn't get a deal, the fact that you are playing a course in this condition and with the history it has, makes it worthwhile.

I was paired with a woman who was in town for a bowling tournament and her friend. It was their first time on this course as well so not ideal from a local knowledge perspective but great company nevertheless.

My only gripe is that they were doing maintenance on some tees which I didn't see mentioned anywhere. This meant that some holes played SIGNIFICANTLY shorter - a lob wedge for a hole which should have been over 200 yards. I am sure this is a short term problem but it may be worth ringing before you book.

Staff were all very friendly and courteous.

If I lived in Vegas I would definitely be returning.

Back in good shape

I hadn't played this course for a while but was pleasantly surprised with the course conditions. It was the best it had been in years. I still think the price is too high but if the market will bear it...

I will play it again soon.

Old Vegas at its best

This course is a history lesson in the way Vegas use to be. The minute you walk in it's old school, the memorabilia of the course, trophy cases, the piano ( close your eyes and picture Frank Sanatra) and the bar. The course is friendly, but challenging depending on the pin placement. The trees give shade from the sun and the info about different houses / owners gives a nice read while waiting to tee off on the various holes. This is a course that I will want to play when the temps climb in the summer after 2 pm, and the players/ visitors are gone.

Overrated but OK

Many locals recommended it, but I found it to be just OK. Compared to the other courses we played in the area, this course was only average at best. They do not treat "non-locals" very well with the price. If it was not for GolfNow, we would not have played here.
