Primm Valley Golf Club - Lakes Course
About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2024.
The Lakes Course is one of two championship courses designed by Tom Fazio at Primm Valley Golf Club. It was the club's original layout before it was joined by the Desert Course a year later. As its name would imply, the Lakes Course features an intricate system of lakes and rivers weaving through the layout and coming into play on 11 holes. The layout is challenging but playable with elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers that are balanced by large greens and wide, player-friendly fairways. One of the golf course's most memorable holes is the par-5 second. This challenging 530-yard hole plays around a massive lake but with an accurate second shot, it is reachable in two. There is also water the left of the green and a bunker in front.

Best Staff
The course was fun to play with some great holes. The staff made the day.
play all over so cal, this one a favorite
Had a t-time for Lakes first, but that one had a mini-trny, so I asked staff if I could play Desert course first. they looked and said sure- go now. played in 2.5 hrs.
Lakes played a little slower 3hrs 15 min. haha Course in great shape, staff very accommodating(picked clubs up from car) rates were unbelievable. worth the 5 hr round-trip.
Thank you for your review, we are so pleased that we could accommodate you and create a better experience for you! We will let our staff know of this review and we hope to see you soon!
Fazio Fabulous
Great layout, challenging but fair. Course has plenty wide fairways and offers a few risk reward plays along the way. Rough can be punishing if you miss the fairways. Playable for all skill levels.
Hi genebarth,
Thank you for playing at Primm Valley Golf Club. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us, and we hope you will be back to see us again soon. We couldn't agree more that our course is challenging for every skill level!

Well worth the trip ... but don't penalize Golf Now patrons by charging for range balls
Primm Valley has two very enjoyable courses, both designed by Fazio. The management group keeps the place looking good, Decent food in the clubhouse and a very well stocked and displayed pro shop. Friendly and helpful staff also. The only thing that bugs me is the Golf Now patrons are charged for range balls. If you don't book through Golf Now, range balls are free. The $10 I paid for range balls negates the discount. GH
Hi Greggherning,
Thank you for playing at Primm Valley Golf Club! We appreciate your feedback regarding range balls, and we will share this with our team to make improvements for future golfers. We look forward to seeing you back for another round soon.

Always dependable
Love the layout. Par 3's are not the cheap types. Second rough cut makes it challenging as you need to make sure you mark you ball so you can find it. Greens were a bit sandy, but did make them sticky so you could really aim for the pin. Could use ball washers on the course but that's my opinion. Course marshals would have kept the pace moving better as the group in front must have been betting mortgage payments on every hole. Will be back.

Love this course! Just cut the grass yesterday...
My 2nd time playing here. Unfortunately they had just trimmed the fairways lower after over-seeding 2 weeks ago (I spoke with the course super at the turn) so there were a lot of grass trimmings on the fairways. It was also damp at 7:30 am when I started, so I just played lift clean and place whenever my ball ended up in the grass clippings. The greens are in very good shape, you can tell they were aerated recently but still ran pretty true. Sank both a 30 and 20 ft putt! Still, I love this place, one of the best values in the LV area. Pretty much had the course to myself for most of the day.
HI Michael,

Primm valley -Lakes
First time down to Primm Valley. The greens had been punched recently, so putting was a challenge. Overall, the course was great. Beautiful trees line most fairways and the course was well laid out. Lisa drove me out to my truck and cleaned my clubs. She was beautiful and fun. I would like to have seen the course drinks girl another time or two.
Hi t5265,

Punchy Greens
I've played both Primm courses many times over the last 15 years or so, this time the course was by far in the worst shape I have ever seen it. I expect it will be back, just caught it at a bad time! I did get a good rate so really can't complain too much.
Thank you for playing at Primm Valley Golf Club. We are sorry the greens were not in tip top shape for your round. We have no cart path restrictions or overseeding at Primm Valley Golf Club. We hope you will come out to see us again soon.

Great potential but horrible conditions
This course came highly recommended but I would never play here again. The greens were seriously the worse greens I have ever played on. The greens were infected there was very poor upkeep on the entire course.

Would love to play here again!
Got caught behind 3 to 4 groups of 4 gentlemen playing what I believe was a daily tournament, so the pace was slow. Not gruesome, just slower that what I'm used to. Shot placement was a must on the day I played, cuz the 1st cut off of the fairway was cut at that length that was about an inch taller than the ball, so if you didn't follow your ball until it stopped, well let's just say that I lost a few balls that weren't bad shots. Also you're left with uneven lies. This course tested me, that's why I want to play it again. Both courses are well maintained, greens rolled true and the views were amazing.

Disappointed at Primm
It's been almost a year since I've played this course. I use to play at Primm as often as once a month and I always found it to be immaculate...well worth the hour long drive. Now, possibly due to the lower rates, the course doesn't appear to be maintained with any detail. The greens complexes are lacking any definition, the bunkers have weeds growing in them and the liner is showing in a lot of areas. The water hazards are overgrown and the water looks stagnant in a lot of the ponds. Even the flag sticks and rakes were in disrepair and felt cheap. The transition areas between the holes are shoddy. Customer service was non-existent and I felt like an unwelcome guest, possibly because I booked my t-time through GolfNow.com. All in all, it was very sad to see this Fazio design abandoned with such apparent lack of care. Maybe it is just a victim of the economy or I just caught it at an off moment. I will give it another try in the Fall to see if it is the latter. The course design deserves more TLC than what I witnessed. I'm hoping that it was just a glimpse of a great course that has limped through a hot summer and will return again to its former glory soon.
Hi Cmorgando,
We are sorry to hear your experience was not up to par. We appreciate your honest feedback and we will share this with our management team.
We hope when the course is in better condition you will come back and see us again.

Quick Trip
Had a quick trip to Stateline and wanted to play. Showed up sat and was blown away by how green the course was!
The course conditions were fantastic! Played the lakes course and I don't think I ever saw a brown spot in a fairway. The greens were in great shape also! Very receptive!
Considering this was the middle of August I could not have been happier with playing this course!

Las Vegas Top-10
I was cruising into Las Vegas on a Friday to catch some NBA Summer League games... About 1 hour outside of the city, I recalled a recommendation for the course and decided to check out tee times... The GolfNow greens fee was $25.00 for a 10:00am time... I thought "there's gotta be a catch... $25?"... Anyways, I went for it... Best $25 I've spent in a decade... The facility is awesome, easily entering my Top-10 in Vegas where I've played at least 2 dozen courses... Great driving range and practice areas... Two 18-hole courses, Desert and Lakes... I played Lakes because I prefer navigating water hazards more than "target" golf of typical desert layouts... As the name implies, there is water on many holes, but it only comes into play with very poor shots... Every hole is lines with trees but they too only come into play with very poor shots and the trees offer shade from the relentless sun of Vegas... Bottom Line: I'd pay $75 to $100 for the same golf experience...
well kept course
good staff, nice practice facility, they do look for pace of play
In great condition
Played the desert course 2 weeks ago and yesterday the lakes. Both are in great shape an I would highly recommend playing both courses
Thank you Richard8155491 for your review! We are very pleased to see that you had a good time and that our staff was accommodating, look forward to seeing you on the course soon!
