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.

Worth the nice drive to play
Thanks to all the staff that we met at the course.
You all were very kind and helpful to us .
From Lisa at the bag drop and return to the inside staff. Thanks to Rene in the kitchen for making us the best and reasonably priced breakfast sandwich..absolutely delicious..! ❤️
Loved the Lakes course looked beautiful from every tee box. Fairways were pristine. Bunkers were great. However the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars was because the greens were a bit slow. But very healthy and rolled true.
We’ll be here to play again.! Thanks Primm ..!
Primm Valley almost back!
Fairways &tee boxes are good. The greens are slow and some have repaired damage. A large number of dead & removed trees means that you can now see adjacent fairways which you couldn’t 20 years ago but this is a minor point. The main thing is the golf course continues to regain its former stature and the players are coming back!
CHICHI
its so nice to see the course in great shape again
Lakes Course
This course has came a long way in recent years from the greens being dead. The course layout is fun and simply amazing. They are still under some repair but the value for the price you pay is excellent. Sure the drive is a little far but that helps with pace of play and management doesn’t overbook like many of the local Vegas courses. It’s a simple bar and snack foods are available. Some may rank it low but you can get glizzies and burgers in the turn. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Def one I consistently go back to.
Keeps improving
Not quite the standard of 15 years ago but getting there!
Windy unplayable!
Too windy! Course is unplayable. We played only 4 hokes. No rain checks were given.
Great place to play near Las Vegas
We had a great experience the first time we played here so decided to play here again. The staff is friendly and very helpful with anything you ask them. The course is beautiful and in a great condition. I like the nice and wide fairways, but challenging. The greens are a bit inconsistent, but fair. The pace of play was excellent both times we played. It's about 40-45 minute drive out from Las Vegas strip, but worth the drive.
Poor man’s shadow creek
Great layout and track out at Primm Valley.. the Lakes course had pure fairways and tee boxes! Greens were a little slow but received well and some greens had some rough spots! But pace was great the track is a fun one to play sand is great out bunkers will be back
So worth the drive
Finally made the journey out to this gem. Played the lakes course which was in amazing condition. The fairways held shots well, the greens were challenging and true. Peace was perfect as I got out under 3 hours 45 minutes and back to Vegas in a flash. It's called little Shadow Creek for a reason. Must play!
We have played Primm in the pas, however it was a long time ago. We were in Las Vegas for a couple of days so we thought we would try it again. It was absolutely beautiful and so much fun. I didn't remember that it was so beautiful. Everything was green and perfectly mowed. Too many bunkers for me but that is the name of the game. We had perfect weather to accompany the course. At the turn there was nothing available to eat in the Club house which was a shock. They need to work on that offering for sure. My husband and I agreed the next time we are in Vegas we will play the course again.
Golf Chef
They have done a good job bringing this course back .
They still need to continue to work on a couple tee boxes and continue to work on greens
But so far great progress
Thanks
Worth the drive from Vegas!!
Played on the last day in Vegas. Course wasn't busy on Friday just after noon and the wind that was promised in the forecast was not as strong as expected, resulting in a great afternoon of golf! The staff were very helpful, the fairways were in fantastic condition and the views were beautiful. The only thing that wasn't 5 out of 5 was that some of the greens had some rough spots, like winter kill. But there weren't many greens with that issue and the areas were fairly small when they were present.
I will definitely go back there on my next visit to Las Vegas!
