Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2024.

Primm Valley Golf Club boasts two championship courses designed by Tom Fazio. On the Desert Course, Fazio fully utilized the rugged landscape and scenic views offered by the mountains in the distance. Like many of his designs, the Desert Course blends seamlessly into the beautiful surroundings. It is a straightforward layout with no hidden tricks but there are several strategically placed bunkers lurking beside the undulating greens to provide some challenges. The golf course also requires a few tricky forced carries. The fairways are generous and offer some room for error, making the course more appealing to beginners. In addition to the two golf courses, Primm Valley also offers extensive practice facilities that include a double-ended driving range, target greens, practice putting greens, and chipping and pitching greens with sand bunkers.

A Great Day!

Great facility, customer service and golf course. Played alone on the Desert Course in the wind on Easter Sunday. Greatly enjoyed my round and scored well. The bunkers are a challenge, more like waste bunkers. Will I play there again? Absolutely!

Above average course

Was always curious about the Primm Valley Golf Course and took advantage of a Golfnow hot deal. Plenty of parking with bag drop off. Electric carts with GPS and very nice club house with an old nostalgic character to it. Bar/restaurant staff was very courteous and the food was excellent. The greens rolled nice, fairways were average. The Ivanpah Solar Power Facility was in view on most of the holes, unusual facility to look at. Pace of play was relaxed, not too many groups out and the Desert course took about 4 hours to play.

Slow play

There were several college teams at the course preparing for a match the following day so play was very slow. Some of the college groups was 5 somes walking the course so it was hit and wait all afternoon.

California Desert Course

Long drive from Vegas. Course was in very poor condition compared to the other 6 I played that week. We had a late start because of a frost delay but the staff was friendly and helpful. Huge chipping and driving range and super small putting green for 2 courses. Fairways were in terrible shape, greens were so hard you couldn't even leave a pitch mark. It was not worth the drive for me, or the $85 for the green fee. Good elevation changes throughout the course. The course was difficult from the tips, and the layout was great, the only issue was the bad condition.

This Course is Challenging

Really enjoyed my round. The Fazio design featured a plethora of fairway and greeside bunkers which were intimidating to the eye but rarely came into play. The fairways were pretty sparse for a resort course and bare tight lies were the norm throughout the round. With better grounds management, this could be a 5 star tract. Some holes are simply breathtaking and challenging to play. The hot deal green fee was a great bargain. I would not pay walk in rate because of course condition. The practice facility was superb, especially the short game range. The clubhouse was awesome and we had excellent breakfast.
I would highly recommend Primm for fun day of golf if you can get a deal. Try to avoid a windy day.

Picturesque, Interesting Holes/Layout

My favorite of the two courses here. The course was in great shape, and we only saw one other group on the course the whole time playing in the afternoon. The last four finishing holes are probably the most interesting/picturesque. Very interesting greenside multi-level bunkering. Well worth the drive for a great deal on GolfNow.

GREAT COURSE

We really enjoyed playing this course, there were some challenging holes, i would go back and play it again. The only downfall was that there was a foresome in front of us that were playing very slowly and did not have any consideration to let our group play through.

The condition can be improved

The course is quite far away from the strip and truly is in the middle of nowhere. While the the course seems to be well designed but the upkeep can be improved. the grass is somewhat parched the green is fast because lack of water. The players in front of us were too slow and there is no staff to correct the situation.

The price thru the Golfnow.com is excelletnt though they try to make up by charging the golf range balls for $5.

A gem

This course is very very good and better than other more expensive courses in the area. The bent greens are fast and true. with every hole superbly designed by Fazio. We had a greeting second to none by the very knowledgeable staff. ill never forget this experience. Well worth the short drive fron Vegas.

December Golf

Primm is always a beautiful place to play. Two courses to chose from, staff is great, the cart girl is cute, the courses are pretty open and you can play from trouble. The tee time was 10:50 for $20. They let me chose what course i wanted to play because it wasn't crowded. Played as a twosome and pace of play was great.
