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.

Worth hot deal rate

Greens were being irrigated.
Tee boxes were being over run by weeds

Fairways were in good shape. No complaints. Course is fairy open. No real desert landscape to worry about.

poor greens

The course was not in good condition, greens were all under repair, with both sand and holes on them. they will properly be "great" within the next month.

The course has a interesting layout, and the potential to be really great, but it will demand some maintenance before one can call it great.

It feels like my home course to me.

Wide open but fairway traps are placed well. Par 3's can be a challenge with a drivable Par 4 for big hitters. Can humble even some average player's. Over all a good and close course to the Strip or Downtown.

Nice change of pace

Enjoyable old style parkland golf. Nice break from the ubiquitous desert style courses. Very good layout and challenge. Conditions good, bermuda greens not quite as smooth as the usual bentgrass, understandably.

Great Traditional Track

This is a great older track. Needs some TLC. Tees were rough, traps not trimmed. Little things that could make this a really great course again. Wonderful hole design and I would definitely play again.

GREAT Golf Everyone Should Play

This was the first time we played this course and it was in Great Shape we were able to get out early and played as a twosome. I would recommend this to anyone fairways and greens were well manicured and there is history here that everyone who plays golf should take in.

NICE COURSE, NICE STAFF

Love this course, surrounded by "old Vegas celebrity" style homes. Greens were a bit shaggy but otherwise great course. Staff is super nice and informative. I will be back soon.

Playing with the rat pack?

An iconic course. The course isn't in the best of shape and certainly not up to par with the higher end course. But, the course is enjoyable and memorable. No tricky stuff here. Just a plane jane, but still fun.

July Heat

nobody plays golf in vegas in 117 degree heat but we did. the course was well maintained and the greens held shots and putted well

course is wide open so play wasn't affected by looking for lost balls and arrant shots.

staff was minimal as you might expect being their non-peek time, but they could have been a little more attentive. we actually took our cart to our car after no one met us at the finish only to have someone drive over after we had unloaded our bags and begin wiping them off. Kind of late wouldn't you think.

Definitely going back when I am back in town

Not Bad

While I may have had higher expectations, I did expect the course to be in better condition. However, it is a decent course for the price. Probably won't go back, but would revommend for a fast round, hardly anyone on the course.

good value close to strip

I think this course is good value given how close to the strip it is. I found a "hot" deal and it was really worth it. This is a fairly forgiving course for the weekend player. When I go to vegas with the fellows this course is on our agenda.
