Rating 74.4

Spanish Trail Country Club is a 27-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. Founded in 1984, the club is one of the oldest in Las Vegas. The holes are divided into three nines, which can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The Canyon/Lakes Course is the longest of the three combinations and it begins with the most difficult of the nines. The Canyon is a desert-style course with a final stretch of holes that will test even the best players. The seventh through ninth holes feature a bevy of hazards, ending with an elevated green surrounded by cavernous bunkers. As you could have guessed from the name, the back nine, the Lakes, has water coming into play on six holes. Due to the fast and undulating greens throughout the entire golf course, accuracy on your approaches is key.

“Lake” is impressive.,.

The 9 holes LAKE is very challenging. Even good players may need few extra balls. One Par three hole with water falls
was impressive, the small circular pond near green may be too much

Nice but cold

This is a beautiful and a bit challenging course but can certainly be more exciting with a little more enthusiasm from the staff. The atmosphere lacks warmth with no smiling faces and welcoming greetings. Perhaps because they have to work on New Year’s eve? A few minutes of course overview could also have prevented some confusion among newbies who could not seem to follow the signs to the holes for each of the three courses.
After watching a couple if shots bounce off the bunkers I should have gotten the clue that there is not much sand in them. You can break a wrist instead! Other than that the course is kindof picturesque , with those humongous homes in the background.

Very nice course, good value.

I was very happy with the course conditions and the pace of play was great. The only bad thing was that when we checked in we were told that we had to pay an additional $5.00 per player fee for the amenities of the course such as GPS on cart, water on the cart and driving range .....even though we didn’t use the driving range.

Bad Experience Overall

There was 40+mph winds. Patio furniture blown onto the course. Decorative fountain waterfall streaming onto the fairways. Couldn't re-book because "policy" states that course was "open". Not a good policy in my book. Only lasted a few holes...putts blown off the greens. Tried to call Golfnow and they were unable to adjust. I'll think twice before booking another "dealtime"

Unethical or not - your call

There is a mandatory $5 charge for water, range balls and GPS. It's written in the fine print - which the check in person arrogantly pointed it out (=read it buddy!) If it's mandatory why not build into the green fee rather than hiding it? Worse, golfnow payment page said $0.00 due at course.

Also this is a "private course". Both time i was there I didn't feel welcome or public belong there.

Revere, Arroyo Rock, Siena to name a few *never* gave me that impression and there are always pleasantries with smiles.

You decide.

Great Day

As always the course was in great shape. The traps are the best around with soft sand and no rocks or pebbles. One of the few courses you actually wanted to do a great job of raking them out after use because they didn’t destroy your clubs. Had a great day.

Play at least once

Nice course, with decent staff. Only advice; call them if you book a golfnow hot deal, and make sure lakes is on your round. The other 2 courses although in great shape are boring, and repeatable. I would not play here again unless lakes was part of my 18.

Beware Twilight Hot Deals

Scheduled for 12.10 p.m. tee off, notified at check in tee offs running "a few minutes late." Once 40 minutes past tee off, checked in pro shop to see if we had missed call. No one there. But after energetic Helloooos from me, person emerged and said again: "We're running a few minutes late." While I have played 18 holes on this course numerous times in 3 hours 30 minutes, 12.50 - 3.20 late November leaves us with minimal light. Into the second hole, we were held up no less than 5-12 minutes on each of the following 7. At the turn there were 2 groups waiting to tee off. Impossible to finish for many who paid dearly.
