Description

Nevada’s capital of fun, Las Vegas. puts a new spin on the golfing life.

One new country club after another has opened in Las Vegas and its suburbs for years. And every “new kid” on the teebox seems to top what the previous new club offers.

These clubs have lakes, waterfalls and manmade canyons that compete for attention with natural mountain views. Their huge clubhouses could hold conventions inside. Their fairways have palatial homes that rival villas in Tuscany.
