Surrounded by the towering Spring Mountains near Las Vegas, Siena Golf Club features gently rolling fairways and artful bunkering – plus the course offers dazzling views of the spectacular Las Vegas skyline.

Designed by master architects Brian Curley and Lee Schmidt and built by the golf specialists at Sunrise Colony Company, Siena is renowned throughout the Las Vegas Valley for its natural beauty and unprecedented serenity.

Siena Golf Club is a revival of the values and artistic styles fashioned by golf’s greatest courses. What’s more, Siena is a celebration of the Italian Culture. In the Tuscany-themed Siena at Summerlin, a focal point of the Siena Golf Club is Lake Siena, a quarter-mile-long lake with cascading waterfalls on the 1st hole of the golf course.

The 13,500-square-foot Siena Golf Club features a full-service golf shop, locker rooms, multi-tiered practice facility and The Siena Bistro with a patio dining room overlooking Lake Siena. The elevated characteristic of the terrain provides golfers panoramic views of the mountains and famous Las Vegas city lights.   Source: OpenGolfTeeTimes.org

Silverstone Golf Course Las Vegas was designed by Robert Cupp, Golf World’s 1992 Architect of the Year.  Silverstone Golf Club features 27 holes of championship golf just minutes from the Las Vegas strip.

The course is located north of Centennial and east of U.S. 95 near the old Floyd Lamb State Park with a spectacular view of the Sheep Mountain Range.

Opening in June 2001, the courses feature three rotating championship style nines of bent grass on the greens and rye grass for the fairways and rough. Various water features and fresh landscaping make for a challenging and enjoyable experience.

There are six Par 5 holes that average 590 yards from the tips, with another 4 holes over 600 yards. The longest hole on this Las Vegas golf course is a 653 yard hole on the Mountain course with a large lake protecting the green. Each course will play 7,000 yards.

All of the problems are in plain view of the player, with no hidden tricks. However, there is plenty of trouble for wayward shots and the greens that are small and undulated. If the wind is blowing, SilverStone vastly increases the degree of difficulty. For discounted tee times call: 1-877-669-4653

It’s sometimes hard to tell if that thing behind Wynn Las Vegas is a golf course or a CIA annex.

The staff treats Steve Wynn’s latest $500-green-fee course (he introduced that nice round number to Las Vegas golf with Shadow Creek, which he no longer owns) like it houses national security documents. Maybe the real dossier on weapons of mass destruction is buried under the fifth green.

Hey, it’s Vegas. Anything is possible.

The Wynn Las Vegas Golf and Country Club is the second collaboration of Tom Fazio, Steve Wynn and Mother Nature has resulted in 18 unforgettable holes. Right outside the resort’s back door.

That would explain the paranoia surrounding the Wynn Golf and Country Club. Pro shop attendant Heather Wicks made it seem like she was letting a few potential customers through the pearly gates when she allowed them to walk out onto the patio that overlooks the 18th green.  Full article

And Jack Nicklaus’ Reflection Bay Golf Club is 64th. Joe Passov, Golf Magazine’s Course Rankings and Architecture Editor, writes that the golf courses ranked in the Top 100 are “Among the best public golf experiences your money can buy.”The Top-100 Courses You Can Play was compiled through input from Golf Magazine’s World Course Ranking Panel (which can be found at Golf.com), the Golf Magazine editorial staff, industry insiders and the magazine’s network of “course spies” in the field.

Las Vegas golf is at its best at the scenic Desert Pines Golf Club. With thousands of mature Pine trees lining the greens and fairways of the Desert Pines Golf Club, many golfers refer to it as “The Pinehurst”.
