Not worth what I paid

Other people playing just before us paid $20 less a piece. I don't know if they got a better rate by calling and booking, but this was definitely not worth the money that I was charged by GolfNow.

Thanks for reviewing us on GolfAdvisor! We are sorry to here that other player paid less than you did for their round. It could be possible that they were playing 9 holes that day, thus the reason for the difference in price. Online booking is the best way to save money when making your tee time!

Beautiful day for golf

Other than the rude teens who seemed to be having some kind of tournament make up play, complete with referees, who constantly hit balls up on our group, even though EVERYONE was backed up and slow, it was a great course with some interesting lies. Actually love the chipping / putting area in front of the first hole. good use of waiting time for on deck players

Playing here for 15 years- 10 hdcp

Palm Valley has always been a fine track. Nothing spectacular, but a good, enjoyable round every time. Wide fairways allow you to blast off from the tees, but there are teeth in the last three par-3s as they are extremely tough up and downs if you miss the greens. The bunkers can be real hazards- mostly little sand covering a hard clay bottom that will have you drop-kicking your ball across the green on any downhill lie, so beware. This, however, is a trait of many Las Vegas courses as the sand gets scoured out of the bunkers due to desert windy conditions. As a note, most greens will break towards the valley as the course sits just shy of the mountains.
The course is usually fairly lush with somewhat forgiving rough. Today the course was understandably showing some scruffiness at the end of winter with near-hardpan, dormant bermuda rough making for more difficult shots from all but flat lies, but the greens were still in very good shape. They are currently the fastest on the West side of town which is making the putting more difficult than usual. But still, like an old friend, it's comfy even when it's a little cranky like today.
If you're a local, get the Loyalty Card. for $20 you get a $5 discount and a free small range bucket to hit every round, 2 free rounds after you play 8 and allowed entry into a couple of special events a year. Great deal and it's good for either Sun City courses.

Challenging; fast greens

First time playing the course. It was challenging, but made even more with the windy conditions. Greens were undulating and fast. It was fun, a great value and definitely want to play it again.....hopefully in less windy conditions.

Nice layout. Challenging.

Was impressed with the course conditions. Challenging layout with not too many obstacles. Greens were extremely fast, not helped by the windy conditions. Great value for the money.

The course was in very good condition and we had a great overall experience. It's not a difficult course but there are challenges and it's perfect for the higher than scratch player. Everything is convenient around the clubhouse, there are nice bathroom facilities on the course, everyone was friendly, and green fees were very reasonable. We look forwarded to playing this course again soon.

My golf review

WE were delayed 20 minutes on our tee time and then had a 4:40 round . So that's 5 hours on the course, which is way too long for a week day. It seems to be the theme at alot of courses but they just don't care. You can't have a good round when you're waiting on every shot. Pace of play is the #1 problem in golf right now.

Under construction

This course is currently being renovated. Only mats on the range, no water to drink on the course, some fairways completely torn up. No GPS on the carts and no yardage markers anywhere. I think the course will be decent next year. I will not go back this year.
