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.

course needs attention

fairways not the best landing areas. Half the sand traps had rocks in them. So many you had to move the ball and worry what might be under the surface of the sand.

Fairways could be mowed closer, but leaving them a little long in the heat is probaly best for the course.....greens were very nice....and challenging

Great 'classic' golf course...nothing fancy, just straightforward good golf course with a very convienient location for those staying on the strip.

Nostalgic Track, Worth Every Penny

Besides the fact that it used to be a stop on the PGA Tour and the Rat Pack used to party down there, this course is a must play simply for the great architecture. It has a comfortable flow and is challenging enough despite its short length. The homes surrounding the property are yesteryear and will not have you ooing and ahing which drags it down but if in Vegas its worth the price.

Poor choice for visitors

I was throughly disappointed with this course. With all the history (it ones hosted PGA & LPGA tour event), the course has deteriated to bad shape. The conditions of fairways and greens are not very good. At a $30 fee local resident, it is at least a value course to play. At >$70 for visitors, you could find a lot more better courses to play in Vegas. I played Spanish Trail, Bear's Best, LV Pauite-Wolf courses in the same trip for the similar price during the same trip and they are much better.

Challenging

Difficult course for us short hitters. I should have went from the senior tees. Just because you're in the fairway doesn't mean you have a shot at the green. That's where experience on the course comes in. Plan on playing it again, hopefully with better results.

Incredible value and one of the best conditioned courses!

We played this course about 8 years ago and it was a very nice "muni" style course. Under new management I guess for the last several years, it is now one an amazingly nice course! We played 4 courses this last weekend in Vegas and this was by far one of the best maintained of them all. An incredible value. The fairways were like some of the fairways you see at the $295 priced courses here in Vegas, and the greens outstanding. We will definitely come back and play.

Good Course

Good course. We had a good time. The staff members in the pro shop, cart area, starter, etc were all very cordial and helpful. Greens were much faster than our home greens, which is fine, just took some time for us to get used to. Course was maintained well. The "ditch area" was the only area that could use some help, as it did smell a little as you crossed.

The course is over priced.

I went to the course along, I was paired with a father & son that were locals. The pace on the front was very slow. We played the front nine twice because of the pace of play. I enjoyed my round because of the guys that I was paired with.
