The Falls Golf Club
The Falls Golf Club at Lake Las Vegas is a Tom Weiskopf-designed golf course that requires accurate iron play as well as sharp play around the greens. The Falls Club is a 7,250-yard, par-72 test that features major elevation changes throughout the course. The uphill holes require long and accurate shots that may make it tough for high-handicap players. However, there are a number of more reasonable holes, and the course is beautiful.
