Las Vegas golf...Red Rock Arroyo or Paiute

My wife and I will only be in Las Vegas for a couple days and we will only have time to play one round of golf.  We are looking to play for $100 or less per person.  It looks like we can play Red Rock Arroyo or one of the Paiute courses for this price.  What would you recommend?  Or is there at better course to play in this price range?  Any recommendations would be appreciated.  Thanks!

I"m out there in a few weeks as well & already booked a round at Paiute (Wolf Creek) ... it's on a thursday, 11:30 AM & was $105.    Everything I've seen on youtube about this course blows my mind ... as an east coaster, the terrain looks like an alien landscape - can't wait to just see it with my own eyes.

I've played both those courses that you mentioned and would suggest Primm Valley http://www.primmvalleygolf.com/

The distance to Primm Valley (time wise) is the same to Paiute from the LV strip (different direction).  It's an amazing course and very VERY nicely manicured.

I played the Lakes course and it was in mint condition.  I didn't play the Desert course but did see it while driving in and it also looked fantastic.  You get the best of both worlds with the Lakes side being tree lined (kind of amazing when this place is literally in the middle of a desert patch) and the desert course being more of a traditional desert track...no tress and flatter.  Enjoy!

I will be in Vegas over the Feb 19 weekend and plan on playing two courses at Paiute one day and two at Primm the next.

Pauite!!!  Wolf and Snow Mountain are unbelievable!...you won't find a brown blade of grass on the entire course.  And with the mountains and how it sits almost underneath the ground makes you feel like you are on a different planet.

Paiute and Primm are two of your best options. Paiute has three excellent courses and  is about 25 minutes north of the strip. Primm has two courses and is about 45 minutes south. Paiute would be my preference but both would be good choiuces. Paiute is usually a little less expensive. Here are links to photos of both places:

Nice pictures.  But, chances are, the guy has already taken his Las Vegas trip, since he posted in January of 2011.

Oops. I just saw that the preceding post was only 3 days old. Funny how old posts get resurrected

heading back to LV soon & have these 3 tracks booked (unlike Myrtle, you can get great deals in LV on golfnow & by utilizing twilight time rates in the winter):

- Wolf Creek

- Royal Links

- Desert Pines

... and maybe one or two of the shorter executive courses if have a few extra hours here and there - they look pretty good too.

"Wolf Creek" is up in Mesquite, NV...."The Wolf" is at Pauite Resort....two different courses. Common mistake. The first time I went out there my friend booked us at The Wolf...and for months I was checking out Wolf Creek's website and getting pumped up...I was even playing it on Tiger Woods PGA Tour on Xbox. And when we got to the course...I was like...wait a minute, this doesn't look like wolf creek. Although I was still thuroughly pleases to be playing at Pauite. :-D
