Bear's Best is a great collection of Nicklaus' favorite hole-designs. It is really a treat to play. Never been disappointed in the approximately 25 times I have played the course. Now that I am retired, I wish the green fees were a little less pricey.

One of the nicer and better maintained courses I've played in the Vegas area. Most homes on the course are far enough off to not be much concern. However, some are quite spectacular and add to the character of the track, as well as the mountain scenery. I played this course on a summer afternoon, which made it feel like you were in a furnace. Most afternoons here are quite windy, which adds greatly to the difficulty, and would recommend playing in the morning.

Very nice!!! It is about 10 miles from the strip. The course is surrounded by beautiful multi-million dollar homes. Can't wait to play there again.
