At Red Rock Country Club, Arnold Palmer has created an escape from desert golf with a lush green course that forces golfers to think over their shots. As you're thinking, a waterfall could be crashing in the background. There are actually two Palmer courses here, but only The Arroyo is open for public play.

It measures in at 6,883 yards from the back tees and uses dramatic bunkering to set off its holes. The par 4s are particularly inventive, especially the 432-yard 4th. The par-3 seventh gives you great views of The Strip in the distance. The greens consistently run 10-11 on the Stimpmeter and the fairways are designed to funnel shots that are not overly wild back into decent lies.

"The Arroyo Course is what it is -- a playable course with stunning scenery and a smattering of decent golf holes," former TravelGolf.com writer Shane Sharp said. "It won't provide as memorable a round as Sin City's big-name resort courses, but the price is relative. If you're looking for a course to include in your annual Vegas rotation, Arroyo would be a nice addition, considering its conditioning and scenery."

Always enjoy playing here!

Arroyo's fast, hard greens and thick, "sticky" rough means fairways and greens are a must, because unless you're an accomplished, low-hdcp golfer, hitting full shots out of the rough will be dicey and chips are... simply bewildering. I've played here for years and I still haven't learned how to chip here (someone do a YouTube video, please!). That's not a knock on Red Rock- the greens putt pretty smooth and true if you avoid the pitch marks that are left from lazy idiots who don't fix them and sunflower seed droppings that brainless, inconsiderate buffoons leave. The fairways are good and wide enough and there's a nice mix of some difficult, some easy and a lot of moderate holes to make for a fun day. When you're in the rough (like me!), hey- you hit it there, deal with it. Hope for a good lie!

The sand was fine- but with a couple of problems: One, drain filter cloth sticks out here and there making some bunker shots worrisome and quite a lot of the traps are littered with a lot of rocks. Luckily the new rules let you remove them.

On the whole, Red Rock is a good, and truly a fair course. Maybe nothing real "special", there's no water to speak of except on one par-3, but it's still a little above the normal mid-range course here in town. Yes, challenging rough, but well-struck shots are certainly rewarded, too. There are 3 reachable par-5s (from the blue tees) and 4 very different par-3s keeping your interest, as well as a few demanding tee shots on some par-4s. Conditions are usually above average for Las Vegas, too- except of course during overseeding (usually September and May, if I recall).

Solid course- good shots are rewarded, bad ones are often punished and except for an absolutely diabolical green on #5, it's just a plain, fun track.

Had a great time playing Arroyo for the first time. The guys I played with knew the course which kept me out of trouble most of the time. Thanks to Jose and Brandon for a fun day.

Poor Course Management

great course conditions but horrible course management resulted in an almost six hour round. Didn’t see a marshal until 16 who really didn’t care after asking about the round. I understand the course needs to make money but stacking rounds on top of tournaments makes for a very poor experience. Second, yardage is poorly marked on the course. Sprinkler heads are far and few between - most without yardage - some with incorrect yardage. All add up to slower play. Note to players: play the tee box that matches your skill not your ego! Played behind a group hitting from the blacks that couldn’t hit a fairway to save their life...long frustrating day.

Slow Play

We booked a 1:24 tee time on Friday the 11th of October. We teed off at 2;00. When we got to the second hole there was a group teeing off and 3 more waiting ahead of us. Front 9 was over 3 hours and we were on hole 13 when it got to dark to play anymore. Was told they had two tournaments that day but were offered nothing for compensation for the slow play and not being able to finish the round. Would definitely recommend calling the course before play. We booked on Golfnow so had no choice but to play. Other than the slow play the course was nice. Flew from Kansas with our clubs and were extremely disappointed we didn't get a full round in.

Not the Country Club Course

This golf t-time was advertised as Arroyo GC at "Red Rock". If you do not know there is two courses at this venue, you think you are playing the CC course at RedRock. NOT!! There is a CC course (members only) and a Public Course for the general public, Arroyo. The Arroyo Course is the Public course, which is not a quality course as far as condition and quality. The GolfNow listing was a bit "misleading" and dependent on you knowing the facility had two courses and the listing was for the lesser quality "Public" course.

Completely disagree with your assessment that this course isn't a quality track and has poor conditions. I play there regularly and it is a fair course- good shots are rewarded and bad ones usually punished. Also, the conditions are better than almost every other area golf course in the same price range. Sounds to me like you're just angry that you didn't get to play the private course.

Mediocre

Decent facility nice staff and course in I'd say 4 outa 5 condition. However, layout kinda sucks pretty bad there's a point where you drive 5 minutes through neighborhood to a par 3 then 5 minutes again to get to 8. Some holes are good layout but overall 18, kinda stupid. Good enough condition though

Hairy bumpy greens

The course is good and not a huge challenge but when the greens come back after the punching holes and sanding it will play better. I probably won’t be back anytime soon but if the course heals then I might consider coming back.

Where is the Marshall?

I remember now why I don't play here very often. it is excruciatingly slow. The 3s-me in front of us were not smart enough to fog a mirror...but all three were giving each other on course lessons while the group ahead of them was 2 holes ahead. The first time we saw a Marshall was on 16 green and he was just out joy riding.
