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.

6.5 hour round

Seriously, the pace of play was awful. Longest round of golf I've ever played. Very nice staff though. Also not a drop of water on the course as courtesy, which is rare in vegas in 110 degrees. Wasnt happy about that.

A Local Gem.

Always come here to play during my visit. Great golf course and in outstanding condition. Only small small complaint is the greens were slow today. No big deal though. Great day of golf here. Highly highly recommend this place for all levels.

HOT time in Vegas

I was super happy with the price, the 18 holes, cart, small bucket and really nice staff. The course is in good shape. The greens, though, were aerated recently so not the best. Additionally, they were not the best grass, but in HOT Vegas, I guess thats what you get. The area around it was a little run down. Tiger won here in 1996, but that was when it was top tier club I bet. Good value.

Great course for value!

I played three straight rounds during the week.. over layout was good, a bit flat but expected. I would definitely play there again when I return to Vegas. Early tee times were available all three days.

Strong Layout

The course played very nice to the 136 slope. Greens were challenging with lite undulations. Price and service were superb. I’m have an 11 index and was able to pull in an 86 for my first (but not last) Las Vegas National appearance. HIT’EM LONG!!

Fun course

I enjoyed playing it. The only issue was that the greens were still healing after being aerated. I would love to play it again with the normal greens. Will definitely be back.

Classic Las Vegas

First of all, the course was in good condition even the traps were well “fluffed”. The greens had just been aerated but even that small distraction did not reduce our enjoyment.

The history of this course is rich with stories. They have placed placards at several tee boxes with stories of the previous residents. Great stories and some funny ones.

Avoid the weekend

There are too many partiers and snobs that play here on the weekend. The pace of play was not good. They even let a 5 some play. Great course, however. Rich in history and a nice classic layout with a private course feel. You must shape your shots correctly to play tee to green well here. A challenge!

Great course

I’ve almost fallen in love with this course and layout. It’s been in great shape the last 2 times. Great for the $$$ only thing is couldn't enjoy a beer while we looked over our cards. Finished round 4:30 but besides that had a great time staff was awesome as usual. Would recommend.
