Fabulous Course

What an amazing course! Incredibly well groomed fairways and greens.. very well maintained.. Wide fairways are forgiving but that’s Golf in Vegas and most of the west coast... Can’t wait to play here again...

Awesome Course!

This golf course is definitely one of the must play courses in Vegas. With holes selected from some of Jacks favorite courses it makes it much more exciting/enjoyable to play. Conditions are great. Greens are pretty fast. Carts are very nice with built in gps systems (very convenient).

Fun Play

Actually played here because I had a Golfpass free play voucher. Guess that always makes your round better. But had not played here in quite a while and had forgotten how nice the track was. Was in very good condition from tee to green. The track has some mild elevation changes, multiple forced carries, and water come into play on a couple holes. Local knowledge is very helpful on a few holes. Not the greatest value in town, but is a fun track and would recommend.

Beautiful, but way too fuzzy. Plus one real lame experience.

First off , this course is beautiful. Great views, incredible homes and great golf holes that can really challenge you and reward great shots. However, I was really surprised to find the tee boxes had really long grass, like I am talking almost "rough like"! Also, the fairways were like "first cut". If this course had tight lies on the fairways/tees, it would be amazing.

Unfortunately the one thing I will remember the most about this round was attempting to play the 15th hole (211 yd Par 3)....At the LARGE home to the right of the teebox were a group of people outside on their patio. They proceeded to intentionally set off a fog horn during the back/down swing of all four of us....causing us all to shank, of course. Hilarious. Ruined my round (score and experience). Insult to injury, when I mentioned it to the guy cleaning my clubs at end of the round he couldn't have cared LESS. I know the course cant control the dummies and their fog horn....but maybe the lack of concern by staff tells me its a common occurrence?

Great day of golf

I love playing Nicklaus golf courses. - The fairways are wide and then the fun begins with elevated greens with multiple bunkers. The view from almost every hole is fantastic with the mountains and amazing homes. The staff was excellent and the course condition was really good although it was cartpath only today. I highly recommend this.course

Bad conditions

1” grass in the fairways, 2-3” grass on the tee boxes, cart path only, broken gps unit on cart. It would have been great to know that the course was in this condition at the time of booking. Absolutely not worth $170. In its current condition, it’s an $80 course at best.
