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.

Great layout - super fast early morning round.
Great layout, conditions weren’t ideal, but the staff was awesome and gave me a heads up of what to expect.
?
I really don"t understand the poor reviews on this course I thought it was in great shape and the price was good
Great Layout
Quiet, wide open and away from civilization. A very enjoyable day. Bunkers are rock hard, need sand.
Getting better every day !
The condition of the Lakes is getting better every day not quite as good as the old days but much better than the last few years Green are almost in good condition fairways are better than average had a stress free round with little to complain about staff are extremely friendly and helpful enjoy 😉 your round here
Lovely Course
We have golfed here several times and enjoy coming back. Generally the course was in excellent condition except for a couple of greens. We had a slow group in front of us which can be frustrating but it was a beautiful day and we weren’t in a hurry. Will definitely come back.
Great course
Course was in great condition. Greens were very soft and slow, a little rough in spots but overall a fun course to play. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great value. Lakes course was very picturesque and challenging from the blue tees.
Potential but ?
This course has a lot of potential but the greens are in Bad shape and minimal staffing for drinks/ food, answering phone etc its a ghost town (they are very nice when you find them)..
Ground staff are working on the course but something bad happened to the greens?
The fairways look Great but we werent sure why Everything was a soggy over watered mess? Balls plugging next to the green or fairway edges deep enough they couldnt be found,
No drinks cart.
Fun Layout
Overall a good experience, Course was in above average shape except for the greens which has several bad spots throughout the 18 holes. They had repaired several of the greens , so we hoipe to have a better putting experience next time.,
Update on course conditions
I've played Primm for over 20 yrs..but I stopped a few years ago because the condition had gotten so bad..I played this afternoon 10/14 and the course is back!!!!!! Tee boxes,fairawys,bunkers are all in great shape..The greens are not perfect BUT very playable(a few rough patchy spots)give it a few more weeks and it should be perfect.So for all those Primm lovers who gave this course up for dead..Come on back..
Solid course
Solid course to play at a fair price. Fairways were in great condition. A few of the greens could have been in better shape but looked in much better better shape compared to a few past review from earlier in the year. Pace was mostly fine. Would come back
love the course but greens still need work
All facets of the course are great but the greens need some TLC. The greens are better than they were when I played last Spring, but still not up to the standards of the rest of the course. Playable, just not smooth. Staff is very friendly. Tom is awesome.
Fun course
Great time playing this course, nice pace. Weren’t rushed at all, staff was very friendly and informative. Course was big enough that if you take the scenic route, your able to make up with 3 wood or irons. Only down side was the greens. Tee boxes were decent and fairways were nice. Pricing was great, will definitely be back to play again!
