With over 30 championship Las Vegas Golf Courses designed by some of the top architects in the industry including Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Johnny Miller and Pete Dye it's no wonder Las Vegas has grown as one of the top golf destinations in the world.
Where else in the world can you play 24 hours a day? Get an early tee-time, then hit the Las Vegas strip for some table gaming and it's a night on the town starting with a variety of fine dining choices and of course it wouldn't be a complete Las Vegas Golf Vacation without seeing a show! ah.. Viva Las Vegas...
The golf in Las Vegas is superb, only in Las Vegas can you play a 5 star golf course where each hole immerses you into another area of the world, the Bear's Best Golf Course features 18 holes personally selected from golf courses around the world by the man Jack Nicklaus himself! You have to play Bear's Best! If just to be the envy of your friends!
Play where the PGA pro's play in the PGA owned Tournament Players Club (TPC) Canyons - each breathtaking hole can be played like a pro or at any level of golfing experience - "the staff here at TPC Canyons goes through a standard of training as required by the PGA... every visitor is treated like a pro" says Joe Massanova TPC Canyon's Marketing Director. It's a no brainer that the TPC Canyons is going to be in excellent condition no matter what time of year, PGA standards are mandatory, and of course there's always that chance to run into a PGA Tour player on the fairways. TPC Canyons now plays host to the Las Vegas Invitational.
If challenging your game is your forte, take on the Johnny Miller Designed Badlands - "Badlands is a target golf course. Not the norm in desert golf in Las Vegas. You won't forget a Johnny Miller design after playing Badlands" says Steve Miller, Badlands Marketing Director. Badlands Golf Course has undergone a reconditioning - if you're a Johnny Miller fan or enjoy Target Golf - remember to add the Badlands Golf Course to your itinerary.
So whether you choose to challenge the house casino's at the Bellagio or the MGM Grand - you should challenge your game on one of many Las Vegas Golf Courses.
