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.

Really enjoyed the nostalgia

Playable course that embraces its fabulous history. The staff could not have been nicer and we were paired with some great members! We really enjoyed reading the signs about who used to own the houses! I would recommend anyone coming to Vegas play this course!

A throwback

Las Vegas National is as old school as it gets. It's a classic layout surrounded by vintage homes. There's nothing flashy about the layout, but it's got plenty of good holes and no bad ones.

The back nine gets more interesting with some shorter, birdie-friendly holes.

Inside the clubhouse is the Las Vegas Hall of Fame. Be sure to spend five minutes looking around. It's worth your time to soak up the history and memorabilia.

A friendly course.

More of a locals course than a resort setup. Not punishing but not a pushover either.

Great Day

Looked forward to playing here for the first time. Enjoyed every hole and played with 3 locals (Larry, Curley and Mo). As I played, I looked at all the homes and thought how awesome it must have been to play here back in the sixties. Back to today. Course could have used some maintenance, but did not affect our play. Greens played well. Will play again next trip. Great price on Golfnow.

Good value

Golf now prices were great for this course. Im not sure i would play at full price. Course was in good shape but greens were slow and didnt roll well. I was surprised at all the garbage they have left in the creek running through the course. Totally put me off!! Not their fault but could be their problem. Still enjoyed it for the money but know what your getting into.
