This review is for the Lexington course, which I've probably played about 15-20 times.... never been on Concord.... which from what I've been told is a shorter, considerably easier course. Probably a much smarter choice than Lexington for the beginner.
This year we've been paying $42 (casino employee rate) to play here... which is about as good a value as you can get anywhere for a course of its caliber. And they usually have good (early) tee times available a couple days in advance.
This course is only a couple miles from Rio Secco, and a pretty comparable layout. I really don't know why... but Rio Secco seems to have a better reputation.... although I think Lexington is a better, tougher course. The course features some good elevation changes, and a few really tough holes. The houses in the area are set back far enough from the course that you don't feel like you're playing through someone's backyard. You also get plenty of great views of the city. The course is plenty long(over 7000) off the tips, and the greens are generally well protected. A lot of the greens are situated so that a shot that misses to a certain side will end up in the rocks/bushes/canyon. This definitely adds to the difficulty. In my opinion this is one of the more difficult courses in Las Vegas in its price range. Oh....one small note, this course has a few holes (other than par 3s) that are always cart path only....might make a difference to some of you lazy players out there.... I know I always try to hit it close to the path on them...lol.
