Certainly when thinking of Las Vegas, casinos come to mind. However, many people come here exclusively as a golf destination. So, you might ask yourself, what are the best golf vacations in Las Vegas? Donat despair, there are so many choices available to provide your ideal Sin City golf outing.
After a bad day at the casinos you can relax at the Las Vegas Golf Club. At just $100/person you can enjoy playing on one of Golf Digest’s \”Best Places to Play, 2008-09. The clubhouse is new and the course has recently been refurbished thanks to a $5 million renovation. Show your skill at this beautiful, modest golf course.
Adding a bit more money, which hopefully you won at a casino, you can tee off at The Revere at Anthem - Lexington. This spectacular course has a 7,143 yard layout and welcomes players with low handicaps. Do you feel lucky?
Have a great day at the casinos? Get over to the Rio Secco Golf Club! For $175-275/person you get to play on one of Nevada’s top golf courses, as voted by two separate organizations. Golf Digest dubbed it one of \”America’s 100 Greatest Public Golf Courses\” and a Las Vegas PGA membership poll voted it the #1 public access course.
When you would rather walk to your golf course than drive, Bali Hai Golf Course is for you. The price is high, but so is the view. This course is located right on the Las Vegas Strip and is home to huge palm trees and 100,000 tropical plants and flowers. While GolfWeek puts it in \”America’s Top 40 Resort Courses\”, VegasGolfer deems Bali Hai as the \”Best High-end Resort course in Las Veagas\”!
Maybe you came for the desert to try something new, something not done before. Why not a desert course? The Painted Desert Golf Club is the first desert course in Las Vegas. See the harsh desert contrast with the vivid green vegetation. You will find the tee boxes and fairways are kept separate by native desert plants; such as cactus and mesquite. The course also features some quite a few lakes and, obviously, sand bunkers.
When you are feeling a bit too big take a trip to TPC Las Vegas. This great course of \”desert elegance\” was designed by Bobby Weed and Raymond Floyd. As you tee off you are surrounded by mountains, canyons, and the Las Vegas skyline. Just what one needs to be reminded of all the big things in the world.
No matter budget or preference, Las Vegas is the place for golf. You have a wide variety of courses; no matter if you prefer aesthetics, playability, privacy or just a good price. Now that you know all about the great Las Vegas golf spots…when are we going?
