Best Course Loops in Las Vegas
There's a lot more to do in Las Vegas than gamble. There are a number of outstanding golf courses in the area that offer challenges for both low-handicap golfers and beginners. By planning in advance, you can reserve some outstanding tee times and play at some of the most picturesque courses in the area.

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.
