More reasons to visit Las Vegas for your next golf trip

Having previously explored the amazing golf facilities of Las Vegas, we can now highlight even more venues of the highest standard that reside in the state of Nevada.

Due to its popularity, there are plenty more complexes that deserve special mention and all travelling golfers should consider visiting them during their next trip to Sin City.

Revere Golf Club

Although not quite positioned in Las Vegas, Revere Golf Club lies in Henderson, a short drive from the main strip. There are two 18-hole loops on-site, Lexington and Concord. The former is a fantastic experience as it is constantly maintained for you to produce your best golf. It can best be described as a target golf course so you should expect to go low - providing you are puring it that day. The Concord is the easier of the two and it can be regarded as forgiving off the tee, as the fairways are wider and the course generally features less bunkering. The true challenge lies in the vastly undulating greens; if you’re looking for one important part of your game to be firing around the Concord, it’s always going to be the flat stick. Prices for the Revere Golf Club begin from $679pp for 3 nights, with 3 rounds of golf included. 

Cascata Golf Club

Cascata is unique, as it does not feature a perimeter of real estate lining the golf course, which has become a common theme around more reputable golf courses throughout the country. Rees Jones was employed as course architect and it resides just south of Las Vegas, where a rich desert backdrop accompanies the perfect round of golf. The track features ravines, ridges and canyons, all blending to create a memorable experience of golf done right. Prices to stay at the Cascata begin from $799pp for 2 nights, with 2 rounds included.

Aliante Golf Club

Aliante was open for public play in 2003 but since its establishment, it has received plaudits from Vegas Golfer Magazine, labeling it ‘Best New Course in Las Vegas’. It is accessed easily, a 30-minute car journey from the strip but you would think you’ve been driving for hours with the wonderful environment that awaits. Gary Panks designed the loop and its versatility is what attracts visitors, where you’ll experience moments of pressure and opportunities to score well - often a chance to redeem previous mishaps. Stays here begin from $385pp for 2 nights, with 2 rounds included. 

The Legacy Golf Club

Located in the Nevada countryside lies The Legacy Golf Club, a superb design by Arthur Hills that measures over 7,200 yards from the furthest tees. Immaculate maintenance is a highlight of a round at Legacy, as the perfect fairways and greens provide an unforgettable memory. With several water features and plenty of bunkering, the secret to scoring well is keeping your ball in play at all times, as any lapse in concentration can be the difference between agony and ecstasy. Prices here begin from $385pp for 2 nights with 2 rounds of golf included. 

Desert Pines Golf Club

Desert Pines Golf Club initially opened in 1997 but it has since received sizable renovation, where the majority of the greens have been altered. The golf course is beautiful from start to finish, so it should come as no surprise to understand that Pete Dye was employed as designer. The difficulty levels are not straightforward; wide, open fairways encourage increased ball speeds but the deviating greens demand your full attention. A cool feature about the club is the ‘beat a pro’ challenge: where you face off against an employee of the club in a closest to the pin format. Lose and you can say you had fun but win and you’ll be issued credit to use in the pro shop - did someone say new driver? Speak to the experts at Golfbreaks to find the best deals here. 

Las Vegas Paiute Golf Resort

Concluding our second list of Las Vegas golf facilities is Paiute Golf Resort, located only 25 minutes from the strip. Due to the complex’s size and popularity, there are three golf courses that reside on the premises - Snow Mountain, Sun Mountain and Wolf Course - all of which have been designed by the reputable Pete Dye. Each and every layout measures further than 7,000 yards from the tips and they all provide a hefty challenge of golf. Numerous tee markings exist on each route to encourage golfers of all abilities to trial the creative designs. Stays here begin from $875pp for 2 nights, with 2 rounds of golf included.
