Just played here again this morning for $60 (locals rate). Definitely a great value at that price. The course is surely challenging, but not to the point where it's ridiculous. I wouldn't recommend it for a total beginner, but even someone with 15-20 handicap shouldn't have too tough a time and enjoy the round. Although there are a few holes requiring a "long" carry off the tee.
We play here probably more than anywhere when the price is right... probably put about 20 rounds in here in the past year and a half. It's always in great shape, the staff is professional and friendly, and we've never really run into problems with slow pace of play. The do a good job spacing the tee times, and it never seems like there are too many people on the course.... although when it's only $60/round... I can't believe they aren't packed.
I'd have to say this course is in my top 3 for Vegas.
