Las Vegas Golf
Angel Park Golf Club
This club has two regulation eighteen hole courses, a twelve hole par 3 course, and an eighteen hole putting course. The club, nestled 3,000 feet above sea level against the breathtaking Spring Mountains and Red Rock Canyon, overlooks the fabulous Las Vegas Strip. The Palm Course's most challenging hole is #12, a 220-yard, par 3, featuring sand bunkers guarding the front of its green. The Mountain Course is very hilly and open. The greens are sloped and fast, and there are many trees that come into play throughout the course. It has been built to reflect some of the famous holes seen from various courses throughout the world. Hole #1, "Double Green," represents the famous double greens at St. Andrews in Scotland. Hole #10, named "Island Green," requires a 100-yard tee shot over water to an island green. This hole pays homage to the innovative Pete Dye who is credited with the island green design. This is the only course that you are allowed to walk. From the scenery, to the staff, to Arnold Palmer's uncompromising Championship courses, Angel Park has earned it's reputation throughout the southwest as one of the finest full-service golf facilities. The eighteen hole, night-lit putting course is filled with sand bunkers and water hazards, making it a challenge for even the best putters. The Cloud 9 Course is also night lit. Other practice facilities include a night lit, double-sided practice range and practice greens.

This desert-style course is owned and operated by the American Golf Corporation. The somewhat narrow fairways are defined by the mounds on the sides. Many fairway grass bunkers and greenside sand bunkers have been incorporated into this course's design. In addition, a few trees can alter your shots if you hit an extremely errant shot, but none of them really come into play with the exception of hole #14, a short 313-yard, par 4. The greens are difficult to read because they are loaded with subtle breaks and undulations. Water hazards come into play on only a few holes. The tee time reservation service number is (800) 884-1818. The weekend rate also applies for Friday. Every weekend, mats are used on the driving range.
