Challenges all your game
Front side is Nicholas design; long, not straight, bunkers and multiple pin placements. The back is completely different; shorter but less open, water, waste areas with landing area challenges. The course was in great shape although the greens had some infestation. The adjacent property is being developed so expect this great course will be more expensive in the coming years. Enjoy it. We certainly did.
Good course and great staff
My wife and I played this course on a very windy day which was a bit of a challenge considering all the dust from construction going on around it (new homes), but we really liked the course and the layout. In a senior moment, I actually drove off and left my clubs at the bag drop by accident. I didn't discover this until the next day. As it turns out, the staff had taken our clubs inside and kept them for me which was very much appreciated.
As good as advertised
I really enjoyed this course. Great variety of holes and excellent conditions. The double greens are genius! Play before all the new construction goes up as it looks like it is going to be pretty close to in play.
Bunkers, bunkers, bunkers and SLOW PLAY
Nice conditions, staff are exceptionally nice, nice design of the course. Some holes have 2 greens which is pretty unique. One gripe is that the Nicklaus Design front 9 is overly tricked out with bunkers. And just for clarity, I played from the white tees and it punished me severely for using my driver. Expect to find bunkers from 200-230 (IE. typical landing area for typical length players) from the white tees and on several holes at the very narrowest part of the fairway also. Overall I played from the bunkers 11 times in my round and it was a real grind. Back 9 played a lot better with plenty of bunkers but it seemed to play a lot more fair. The really safe way to play the front 9 is to NOT hit your driver on many holes which takes away the fun of playing golf. And golf most of all should be FUN.
Now the real elephant in the room....the pace of play. It was HORRIBLE on saturday afternoon. Waiting on every shot and we did not finish. I could clearly see groups ahead were marking balls for foot long putts with no urgency at all. Marshalls on course but didn't really do anything about it. Sad because 17 is a gorgeous hole and 18 looked nice from the drive in at dark.
You have marshalls on the course. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Having to wait on every shot is by far THE WORST EXPERIENCE in golf and given that, I will not be back even though the course and staff are good overall and the value is outstanding.
Many Things To Like About Mountain Falls
I love Mountain Falls. It's in great condition, it's as hilly as you will find in the desert, and the people are great. What I like most is the fact that the two nines were designed by different companies - Nicklaus Group designed the front nine, Cal Olson designed the back. They play differently, with the front more open but with more fairway traps in play and more difficult greens, and the back playing more narrow but with easier greens. Overall I never get tired of playing Mountain Falls.
Best Course in the Vegas area and nice drive to get there
Mountain Falls offer the best to every level of player. Greens, tee boxes and fairways are meticulously cared for. Pro and staff are the most friendly people anywhere. Playing groups seem to move well and the course was well marshaled.
Food and beverage service available at the turn and meals in the clubhouse are great.
Best value, best people, fun town afterwards and easy accommodation if you want to stay over. You have not played quality, country club style golf, until you have played Mountain Falls. See you again soon.
3 playing-riding 3 to a cart-playing out of 2 bags
Very slow play. Slow 4some then 3some 3 playing and riding 3 in ONE cart with 2 bags then us (2some). We could not play through so we told the starter/ranger that passed us about the problem. He told us he would talk to them on the turn (9th hole). Nothing changed and we were even more disappointed the back 9.
Traveling from Las Vegas is a challenge, and we expect not to be further challenged by 3 playing golfers to a cart with 2 bags that could not/would not play through leading 4some.
Great course away from Vegas
Great course, in great condition or being the end of January. The greens were difficult, very fast and lots of movement. Pretty, in a beautiful setting, with only construction around the course impacting a perfect setting. There was no construction on a Saturday, so no noise issues, but they are putting in infrastructure to handle the building of all the houses. It didn't detract from the experience however. Nice pro shop, and a really nice restaurant. Staff were very friendly and very helpful. Very fair price, we will definately go play again when we come to the Vegas area.
Mountain
Great first experience playing MF. Have already recommended to friends so will definitely go back. Front nine more wide. Open than back nine.
Only thing concerning is all the new housing starts. Hoping this will not diminish the golf experience.
Service
Made the one hour trip from Vegas,and it ws well worth it!Thanks to Jay in the shop for his help with tee time change. Course is in great shape for 2nd week of December.
Great course
Play this course one or two times a week. Alway enjoyable and challenging. The staff is extremely friendly and helpfull.
Good course
Only draw was all the work being done for the houses. Took away from the beauty of
The area
Hidden gem
I played this course in 2005, the course is equally good . Super layout, greens, and fairways. Played with a local and 2 men from Wyoming, great company. I do recommend thos course.
Best course in the area -easy drive to pahrumph
This is the best and most well kept golf course and clubhouse any where. Value plus course challenge = the most pleasant golf experience you can get. Pace of play and local players that we have teamed up with are Great. Staff and pro shop is the best and food and drinks are Excellent. Always will play Mountain Falls and wished we lived there!!
Long and short
Playing the course for the first time, it's a bit tricky figuring out where to play your tee shots. Hitting the fairway can make this much longer and knowing the course will make it play much shorter. A few places where course knowledge will make a big difference.
Overall good layout in good condition with challenging greens. Will play again.
Great course away from Vegas
Enjoyed playing the course. Had difficult holes and moderate holes. Actually returned on Monday and played again on a hot deal for 20$/person. Was windy on our first day and fairly calm on second day. The food and drinks were very reasonable in price and very good.
Good condition
Course is in good shape but construction is annoying and cart paths are rough
Excessive Side Play
Everything was great except for this problem. We had to wait past our scheduled tee time because the Club had booked a side game or type of play with some 30 players. We also had to skip a couple of holes because of this, which put us behind time. I think added play should be noted on the website so prospective players know what to expect.
