As a local, I think this is the best value and pristine conditioned course in southern Nevada and the Las Vegas area. A classic and challenging Jack Nicklaus design nestled in a tranquil part of the desert away from the hustle and bustle of the strip is a great escape for the die hard golfer. Greens run fast and true and there is usually not a blade of grass out of place in the fairways. Some good elevation changes as well and nice views of the valley, ponds and surrounding mountains. Practice area is amazing, like no other course in Vegas. It does get hot in the summer but I find the staff professional and generous, providing unlimited water for the players. If you're visiting the Las Vegas area, this course is well worth the hour's drive north of the city. You won't regret it.
