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.

Another Fine Round
A pleasant getaway. I like the Lakes course as it avoids the desert hard pan, Things are interesting off the tee with options for all levels of golfers to test their courage (driving bunkers, cutting dogleg corners and driving water). The greens are very large which can forgive the errant wedge approach or the recovery from the courageous drive attempt. Expect to play here often with great prices.
Better odds than the slots
Liked the wide fairways and info on GPS. Great view and worth setting in bar to view the mountains. Rains came and disappointment could not finish.
Legit
Getting there was a little tricky. It's about 5 miles past where the resort is. Once we found it we were greeted at the bag drop. They gave us range balls to hit, water in the carts and towels. Really nice course. Good greens. Great value for the money especially if you get a deal on golf now.
Worth the drive
It had been about 10 years since I last played this course, so when I booked a $23 time for what I had known to be a good course, I was worried that condition would be off. Surprisingly, course was still in great shape, and had a great day. Definitely worth the 45 minute drive out there.
Always Enjoyable
It''s always worth the drive down to Primm. Was booked on the Desert Course, but they put me on Lakes. Both are well-designed and challenging, but not crazy penal. The greens were excellent. Fairways and tees fine. There were a few Yahoos far ahead of us whom we eventually caught, but still the round was under four hours.
Primm Lakes Course
The facility has all the makings, for a primarily, upper scale clientele. If I managed the course, I would get with the owners and completely restore Tom Fazio's Gem, to upper class shape, and keep it that way. Charge more to play it, then, let the condition of the course speak for itself. I would be happy to pay more and receive a unique golf experience, with outstanding conditions, and world class service.

Amazing layout
Course has an amazing layout...Fairways were thin and tight and greens were a little slow but rolled true...
Lakes course is a nice layout
Played on a day it rained. we were lucky it stopped when we started and didn't start again until 18th hole. Fairways are looking better. Greens in great shape. A few holes are cart path only for no apparent reason with a very long walk to middle of fairway. Bunkers had good sand. Worth playing!
An oasis, literally...
I enjoyed the pace and the atmosphere. Course was challenging enough and fun (black tee). If this was anywhere else closer to civilization, I'd come to play here often. If you're going to go here specifically, make sure to play both courses.
very nice course out of the way
not a long drive from Vegas, we played the desert course in 2013, and were impressed, wanted to try this one and were not disappointed, got a great rate on golf now for 3 pm tee time and they let us go shortly after 2, excellent staff, will play there again for sure,
Best value around..,well worth the drive
Great course and one of the best values around. I have played this a few times as a single and always get paired up with great company. Highly recommend the course!
Beautiful
Wow this course was beautiful and challenging the layout was awesome and the greens were perfect
Great bargain
Nice course and always in good shape. However we are 6 for 6 in clubs falling off cart, 1/2 our fault for not checking after golf attendant put them on cart. Staff is always friendly, just check secure straps always .
golf nut
great courses, love to play there and staff is great
Worth the trip. Great Value.
First round of the holiday. Great choice. With 36 holes pace of play was excellent. Less than 3.5 hrs, Greens in great shape. Fairways nice. Rough was going dormant but I assume that is normal for this time of the year. drove from the Vegas strip, just 1/2 an hour from I 15. If you have a car and a little time it's well worth the drive. Great value through GolfNow.
Great course
Hooked up on a special on Golf18 that made the drive to Primm a really good deal. Paired up with 2 really nice gentlemen who made the round a lot of fun for wife and I. Only downside was the 4 yahoo's who were either totally drunk or so rude that they couldn't keep a decent pace of play. Standing on tee box for 10 minutes for them to make their second shot was crazy. At the turn made mention it to the staff and a word was spoken to them and they magically knocked 30 minutes off the back 9. Great weather and a great golf course made this a fantastic day in spite of rude 4 some in front of us.
First time. Research the address!!!
Used google for the address. Sent me to Las Vegas not CA!!
Other than that, great course, not too hard but, challenging enough. Will come back on my next trip.
Good course on the way to Vegas
Stopped by played a round for the first time, good lay out, back nine is a bit boring. Friendly staffs.
Excellent value in Vegas area
It is definitely a long drive from the strip, but they've had incredible deals on GolfNow the last two trips I've made to Vegas. I played in October after overseeding, but the course was still very playable. The layout is great. There are several challenging holes, but the course is very manageable if you are striking the ball well.
