Cascata
Played On 08/17/2015Great Experience; Not a Great Golf Course
I can't say enough about how great the facilities are. The waterfall, the range, the locker room, the F&B are all first class. The staff and their caddies have been great every time I've played Cascata, which 5-10 times.
I just don't like the golf course, when you're standing on the 14th tee, you'll wonder whether you've played this hole three times already. You're going up and down all day and for that reason, there aren't a ton of memorable holes. The conditions are always very good though. If you're in Vegas, I'd play here once but not more than that.
Shadow Creek Golf Course
Played On 05/19/2015Great Golf Experience
I love Shadow Creek. I've played here a few times and if you're a golfer, it's just a treat to play. The caddies are always pretty good, the locker room staff is great, they have a great golf shop (and a great logo, which looks great on merchandise) and their food is excellent. The golf course was in great condition, as it has been every time I've played it. It's a cliché, but you never feel like you're in Las Vegas when you're at the Creek.
You must stay at an MGM property to play here, but if you're a golfer, it's worth if for you to experience this. The back nine is my favorite in all of Las Vegas (along with the back nine at Southern Highlands) which a great collection of Par 3's, 4's and 5's. My recommendation is to take your limo to take you to the Creek earlier than you'd usually go and go to their short game practice area. It's the best short game practice facility I've ever seen and I could spend hours out there. Then go play your ground and have a cocktail and lunch afterwards. You will not regret it.
