Desert Pines Golf Course

Desert Pines Golf Course

Las Vegas, Nevada is the home of the Desert Pines Golf Course. Another golf course from the Dye Design USA Portfolio and in particular Peter Dye. The golf course is located 7 miles around 20 minutes North of Las Vegas McCarran International airport, and just 12 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip.

Desert Pines measures 6,222 yards from the back tees. This Par 71 golf course is a small South Carolina real estate piece transposed onto the Las Vegas Old Town. In real Dye design style trees have been added to create more of a test and with just over 4,000 mature pine trees lining the fairways, add to that only a few lakes four lakes to ensure your carries are forced towards to their destination. With white sand bunkers protecting the large undulating bent grass greens condition here is always well above par.

The speed -of-play is helped here with the possibility of hiring the latest craze in golf transport, in the Golf Board, a replacement for the shared buggy and gives the individual golfer freedom to smile at the ease of playing at speed. The in-thing right now with a surfboard design means that each golfer still gets to exercise their legs without the added hassle of walking.

A challenging but fair course, which, when paired with the Golf Board, is great fun too!
