Golf Summerlin - Highland Falls Course

The course, as always, was in great shape. Fairways were manicured and the greens ran true. The staff at check in were awesome. I had a challenge unrelated to this round and they took care of it without any hesitation. The course was busy and a bit backed up on the first tee. Play was a bit slow, but it was a perfect day, so who cares. Also the views of the city are great.

This is a great course for the value.

Golfing with my son is priceless.

Good time was had by all.

We played Highland Falls on a recent golf outing in Las Vegas. The course is in Summerlin, an easy 30 minute drive from the strip. Greens fees were around $80, which is very reasonable for the Vegas area.

Similar to many other courses in Las Vegas, Highland Falls winds through a master planned community. There are no areas where two fairways run side by side. Highland falls is laid out on a slope, with almost 400’ of elevation change from the highest to lowest point on the course. This means holes run up and down hill. The design takes this into account avoiding long par 4s that run uphill. The 14th tee features an outstanding view of the Las Vegas valley. The fairways are wide enough to accommodate the occasional wayward drive. The greens are generally large and have some not-so-subtle slopes that keep putting interesting.

The course conditions were good for our round, though the greens had recently been punched. The fairways were in good condition. Winds in the 15-30 mph range on the day we played made the course play a little tougher. Pace of play was OK, though we had to wait for the group ahead of us on almost every shot.

The staff was helpful and the clubhouse has a nice pro shop and restaurant. Overall, our group enjoyed the day at Highland Falls enough that we are planning to return to this course on our next trip.

Highland Falls in Summerlin has a nice layout with great mountain and Las Vegas Strip views. GolfNow rate was the nonresident so I could have done better having my son, a Clark County resident, get the rounds. Offline drives are saved on most holes with slopes sending the ball toward the fairway.

Not too much trouble

It was extremely windy so ball wouldn't stay on green

Course is in descent shape...I would definitely play again

Nice views and challenging layout. White tees plenty of challenge for a 5-6 handicap player.

Booked to play the sister course Highland Falls, got bumped to Palm Valley as there was a junior tournament being held at Highland Falls...good call as we easily finished (at Palm Valley) whereas if we played at HF we would not have completed the round.

Course was in good shape, greens were great...staff friendly and no wait...so all good. We'll play there again!

First review of any golf course in the United States, but I feel that I've played enough to consider writing a opinion. Great experience from park lot to playing a wonderful round of golf and back to parking lot - everyone was very welcoming and friendly. I can honestly say that this is one of the very few golf courses that I could play everyday. The layout is very user friendly and every tee box/fairway is a nice test and at the same time fair, and greens are very sharp.

The 14 hole is the signature view hole. Greens are excellent, fairways in very good condition. Driving range is a little lacking. I would recommend.

Beautiful course with very friendly staff. Cant wait to play it again.

Being winter, the course is in surprisingly good condition. The greens are fast with lots of undulations. The views of the Strip are great, especially from 14th tee.

The experience of playing this course could be improved in my opinion (and my partner's) if the person who places the pins actually keeps in mind that many of the greens seem to be rock hard and don't hold a shot. Therefore, if it's an elevated green as they almost all are and you put the pin within about 10 feet of the front, how in the heck is a golfer supposed to have a fair chance of getting close. I hit 8 iron, 9 iron and even wedges that would just roll all the way to back of green and sometimes even off and into the bunkers which were almost always moist and hard packed. Some greens are so hard that shots don't even leave a ball mark. Then, on one hole 530+ yds, the pin was placed on a precipice so that if your putt goes more than three feet beyond the hole, it rolls another forty feet down instead of stopping. Seemed sadistic but not unusual. for some reason in Las Vegas, as if course superintendents are terrified of anyone having fair chance to make pars or occasional birdie.

Very nice course with some great views of the mountains and Las Vegas. The course was in great shape as I have found with most Del Webb courses I have played. We played the round in under 4 hours which is great. The whole course was in excellent shape. Also has very nice practice facilities. I highly recommend this course. I might also say that a couple of holes require that you have played the course before, I was lucky and played with someone that plays the course a few times a week.

This course will test you entire golf game arsenal...play smart and driving the ball long isn’t always the best play...Ball placement is key when hitting fairways and greens. Greens will feel fast and will also make you feel like your ball is running across sand! Beautiful scenery, amazing water holes, and breathtaking views of mountains and the Las Vegas strip.

Overall great time Only negative was the greens. A bit on the sandy side. Staff was terrific. Round took 3:45. Started out round right on time
