Arroyo Golf Club

First of all, I can’t wait to play here again! I have NO IDEA why there have been a few bad reviews-especially some of the most recent ones! We decided to come out last minute to play with friends (another twosome), and the pro shop employee was SO nice, even though there was a single that booked right after our pals, he was able to put the four of us together, and even charged us the same GREAT rate they had! The course was in great shape, although the fairways were a little long in grass length-must have seeded recently and were letting the new grass grow out a bit. This is the first time we’ve encountered TRUE rough this year-whew! It was pretty rough rough! The course is quite spread out, and yes, one drives quite a bit to reach the first tee. I think many of the residents come out to play daily, as there were several carts that simply drove along, skipping holes as they pleased, I would have preferred NOT to have to wait for folks to drive past to get to a different hole-this went on the whole round. We never saw a course Marshall, perhaps one would prevent folks from being so rude to other players. This IS a public course, NOT a private neighborhood playground. We did see a beverage cart at least three times, has to be the BEST-STOCKED variety of drinks/snacks-both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options abounded. We did see some ball marks on the greens, and again; a course Marshall (or two) could have been monitoring to see that players followed the rules/etiquette of the game-but this would be about our only complaint. Beautiful course, we can’t wait to play there again! Don’t let those other reviews convince you not to play Arroyo!!

We got a special rate for two day booking which was good because the course is not worth the full rack rate. Range balls are included in the rate so that was nice.

The course was ok for late March. Fairways were green and rough was thick. Greens have ball

marks everywhere. They should pass out free repair tools to every player.

The layout of the course is odd You don’t ever get near the clubhouse again after hole #7 but there are water jugs and bathrooms around the course. Only saw the beverage cart one time in the entire 18 holes.

Finished at 6:45 and the clubhouse bar was already closed so couldn’t have a beer.

I’ve played here several times on golf trips and will continue to play the course. The course has a good variety of holes and has been in good shape. Was surprised to see the poor review recently because that hasn’t been my experience. The staff have always been extremely friendly and helpful. Only complaint was that the cart attendant was heavily puffing in a cigarette while I was unloading my stuff from the cart and I hate cigarette smoke. Being early Spring, there are some areas of the course that need a little work, but overall this is a very good value in Vegas golf. I’ll continue to play at Arroyo.

The fairways are exceptional right now. The greens were ok (soft enough to hold approach shots, bumpy in only a few spots) and were fine to play on. The round took 4:50 to play. I was told the usual round is 4:30. Just don’t expect anything faster and enjoy it.

Now we remember why it had been 2 years since our last time at this course. The conditions are embarrassing. Resembles a cow pasture... at best. Save your money and try one of the other, far better, courses in Vegas.

This course, being the public arm of a 36 hole public/private facility seems to truly show that it the red headed stepchild of this family. The course is visually appealing but the greens were easily the worst of the 5 courses I’ve played in Vegas. Pock marks on every green and slow. The tee boxes were were in really poor shape with tons of bare spots and non golf grasses growing in. They mentioned that a recent snow may have caused some of these issues, but overall was not impressed with the golf side of things. The views were incredible, though. Rental clubs are FIFTY dollars here without even the faintest suggestion of a single golf ball to go with those clubs. If we want any golf balls that’ll be $75 for rentals, sir. Lastly, the drives between many of the holes are just absurd. It’s like the architect for the course wanted to get as many houses listed as “on the golf course” so some holes are 1/3-1/2 a mile from green to the next tee.

It was winter conditions but we liked the course and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

I would recommend playing this course with a few locals like I did. The course was very different from what I was use to in Georgia. However, the greens rolled great and the fairways were pure. I would recommend that better than 9 handicappers play from the black tees I'm about an 11 and played from the blues and I had wedges into two par 5's. Drove two par fours with the rented M4 Taylormade stuff from the clubhouse.

I have played this course many times and typically have a great experience. This was an exception. The course is not in good shape. The tee boxes are the worse I have seen them and fairways were not much better. Also, since it was 12.24 they had a shot gun start. This was fine but it would have been nice to have been informed. The purpose of the shot gun was pace of play but we never even saw a course marshal. I like Arroyo but will wait until conditions improve. There are courses in the area playing much better and charging less.

Tough course with fast greens. Fun to play. The only drawback was slow pace of play and the fact my group had to wait on every shot.

Played course for first time on November 19. Staff was friendly and course was generally in good condition, except for the fairways that were spooty to bare in spots. Enjoyed the layout and setting and at $50 considered it a good value. Would play again at the right price.

Had a great outing at Arroyo. The course was beautiful and the staff was very friendly. The layout is a little bit of a maze but the starter lead us to the first tee and showed us where we would have to go for other holes. Very friendly and informative man that made us feel very welcome. I didn't play my best round but really enjoyed my time there.
