THis was the second time I played this course. It has some of the best views of the entire Las Vegas Valley. Hole number 17 is by my account the most difficult hole for a par 4. It is all uphill with a dogleg left that is brutal from the tees to the green. If you get on in two you have earned everyone' respect. Hole 18 is a great risk/reward hole. It starts over water and drops dramatically down to a ravine just in front of the green with the backside of the green guarded by bunkers. Two good shots set you up for a birdie. Great ending hole, makes up for 17.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area
