Long par 3's from the back tees

The course was in very good condition. The greens were a little bumpy but a very good deal for what I paid through golfnow.com.

Good golf course to play.

The fairways are nice and wide on most holes. I found a lot of the measurements were off on distances. The greens were ok but could use a little work. I think what made them doable was the fact they were watering them just in front of us.

I highly recommend this course

This course is challenging for average golfer. Very well
maintain. This course is also forgiving with wide fairway,
but challenging enough because of hills and bunkers.

Wide open with lush fairways and fast greens.

If you like grip it and rip it this course is perfect. Water is not a real factor but sand can be troublesome, lots of fairway bunkers and green side traps if you get a little wild. I would definitely come back.

Nice fun little course - Good value for the price we paid!

This was a fairly well maintained course with nice placement of bunkers and water hazards. Not oo difficult but challenging enough to be fun. Rate of play was fair to good. Staff was a little "snobbish" when we went to check in. Everythin else was fine. I would play again and recommend to friends that dont mind a slower paced game.

Great course for the price.

This is a course I would have never known was there without Golfnow. It's tucked away in a residential neighborhood and is very quiet. Don't be scared to hit any houses, even on my worst slice of the day, my ball was in a playable area. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because even though I was playing on Memorial Day, they didn't have a cart girl on the course to buy drinks from..... there was plenty of water on the course, but you have to buy beer either before your round on when you make the turn. The course was in great shape, greens are well maintained and almost free of ball marks (some people just don't know how to fix them properly) and the fairways and rough are lush and green. Give this place a shot if you're looking for a new course to try in Vegas.

The course played well except the greens had recently been airiated.

It was a beautiful day in Las Vegas and free of the usual spring time winds. The fairways were in great shape, the sand traps were fluffy and easy to get out of. The greens had recently been airiated so were a little bumpy but not too bad. All in all had a great day of golf. Remember "the worst day of golf still beats the best day at work".

This course great value for the money

Check the weather before you go. If it's super windy play from the up tees. The pro tees will add stokes on your score on a strong windy day.

Ho Hum

Nothing special about this course. There is little elevation change or much in the way of hazards. The facility is nice and the staff is great but it doesn't compare to the neighboring courses. If there were more holes like #18, I might play here again.

Open course layout, generous landing areas, have fun!

The course was in excellent condition. The greens were smooth without any burnout, and rolled amazingly straight despite a recent aeration. The sand traps were a little bit light on sand, but still rewarded a good swing. Fairways were in excellent condition. Long hitters will love this course as the layout does a good job of setting up risk/reward on virtually every tee box, even the par 3's. Most of the difficulty came from strategically placed sand traps, although water did come into play on a few of the holes. The views were fantastic. The pace of play was a little bit slow (at one point, we were stacked two groups deep with another group teeing off on a par 3), but we still managed to finish in about 4.5 hours which I consider average, not bad. The practice facilities were good, although the practice putting green was noticeably faster than the greens on the course. This would be a good course for novices, as long as they play the shorter tees, but would still offer a good challenge to the long hitters from the tips. This week I have played Las Vegas Golf Club, Aliante, and now Palm Valley, and I would say that out of the three, Palm Valley was the best due to course conditions, layout (risk/reward was just about right for me at my 13 handicap), and length (I played at the 6300 yard tees).

fun, moderate course

average course with some nice views, but sand traps very uneven in depth and greens had just been dressed so a little bumpy. However, staff was friendly and we were paired with a very nice couple from Canada so overall had a wonderful time.
