Las Vegas Golf Communities

Combining large elevation changes with waterfalls and lush scenery, Tom Weiskopf designed an alternately challenging and attractive course at Lake Las Vegas. The Resort at Lake Las Vegas is already a top destination for golfers planning a Las Vegas vacation. The addition of this breathtaking course should only increase its popularity.

Located in Henderson, The Falls is one of two resort courses situated on the beautiful but steep topography surrounding the lake.

The Falls, however, roams through desert floor and up and down the mountains. The course's name is derived from the streams, gullies and waterfalls that flow throughout the course.

The course's back nine may be its trump card. The par-5 12th hole curves through a narrow pass that leads to breathtaking view of the Valley floor. Over the next two holes Weiskopf throws down the gauntlet with over 100 feet of elevation changes. This stretch of holes is regarded as one of the most gorgeous and treacherous in Nevada.

Not to be dismissed as eye candy, Reflection Bay uses slight elevation changes and tactical bunkering to add to the overall experience and challenge. Nicklaus' design includes some split fairways and peninsular greens, but much of the course's beauty and challenge can be attributed to the lake itself. This is where Reflection Bay separates itself from other Nevada courses. Nicklaus knows how to use water. On most of the lake holes, Reflection Bay has sand along the fairway as if the chance of going into the lake wasn't enough. So even when you think your safe from the water, you aren't safe from the beach.
