At Red Rock Country Club, Arnold Palmer has created an escape from desert golf with a lush green course that forces golfers to think over their shots. As you're thinking, a waterfall could be crashing in the background. There are actually two Palmer courses here, but only The Arroyo is open for public play.

It measures in at 6,883 yards from the back tees and uses dramatic bunkering to set off its holes. The par 4s are particularly inventive, especially the 432-yard 4th. The par-3 seventh gives you great views of The Strip in the distance. The greens consistently run 10-11 on the Stimpmeter and the fairways are designed to funnel shots that are not overly wild back into decent lies.

"The Arroyo Course is what it is -- a playable course with stunning scenery and a smattering of decent golf holes," former TravelGolf.com writer Shane Sharp said. "It won't provide as memorable a round as Sin City's big-name resort courses, but the price is relative. If you're looking for a course to include in your annual Vegas rotation, Arroyo would be a nice addition, considering its conditioning and scenery."

Pace of Play

It was a busy day but the pace of play did not match the amount of golfers. The Marshall was aware it was slow and we expressed our concern for pace due to the group in front of us not using the proper tee boxes per their skill level, he told us it would clear up. It did not. They continued to cause the pace of play to be 20 minutes behind. I really love the course layout and conditions and it’s always a fun course, but I would like to see some Marshall involvement when players are clearly the issue and teeing off on the tips to make it barely past the lady tees.

I would definitely recommend this course.

I would definitely recommend this course to all my friends. The course is alittle bit more challenging with a couple par 5's, some par 4's and a couple par 3's. Most of the course does have nice homes on either side so if you are not a decent golfer I would not recommend this course to you. Great time, great course, and the golf Carts come with a score keeping tv device and you can listen to music too. We loved our day on this course.

A Fun Course

It is a nice course, and not difficult from the white tees, which I played. But might be pretty difficult from the back tee. In fairly good condition, and the pace of play was not bad.

GJD xmas play

Arrived late but I did not have to wait. The course to me would be difficult to walk as some of the holes were 1/4 mile apart. The fairways were excellent and wide so you can let loose on the drives. Most of the greens were elevated so easy to stick the ball on approach shots. Greens were extremely fast but manageable once you get acquainted to the high desert 3K ft. elevation. Would definitely play again when I return to Vegas

Terrible

Played 9 holes in 3 hours. Waited on every tee box for multiple groups. When staff finally came out on the third hole they told us that there was a tournament out in front of us that was holding everything up, but they were almost finished. That was the last we heard from them, and pace never improved. No mention beforehand that pace was awful, or going to be slow. Greens were in horrific shape, and our group passed the time by fixing as many ball marks as we could but still didn't make a dent. For the price, this was a significant let down

I thought my ratings would suffice but here goes.

The pace of play was atrocious No marshalls keeping slow groups moving.

No real directions from starter on where to find hole 1, "just drive down this street you will see it"

No chipping green for non-members

No beverage cart on the course

Golf Carts

Arrived for early tee time and assigned a cart made for hauling people and not golf clubs. Employee explained, "first 12 tee times are assigned "odd" carts due to cart shortage. Wasn't going to work for my wife and I, so I spoke to the pro shop staff and they explained the same and offered to return fees (not an option if we wanted to play golf in Vegas that day) Luckily my wife had charmed the employee in to issuing us a "real" golf cart made for golf.
Totally unacceptable to pay to play on a well known course and issued a non-golf cart. The real golf carts were beat up pretty bad, but at lease we could secure our clubs and enjoy our round. Management needs to "do better" and not expect their employees to deal with the problem.

Nice course, good practice facilities. Limited food and drink but prices reasonable.No food available after 5 pm GPS didn’t work in cart. Teed off at 11:07 finished at 4:25. Waited on every hole, often 2 groups on tee box. No marshals . I would consider playing again but not on weekend and play early unless you don’t mind long round

Played 15 minutes a hole and the Marshall made our group skip a hole. Will never return. He was rude and the group behind us never caught us on a tee box. Poor management

Challenging and Gorgeous

Really beautiful and challenging course. It's sort of semi-private and the members were a bit snobby. The staff wasn't all that welcoming but they were nice enough to get us checked in and tee'd off. That's a surprise since Las Vegas is a tourist destination so you'd think outsiders would be made to feel more welcome. Outside of that, the golf was fantastic and my cousin and I got our butts kicked by the course. If you're a straight hitter you'll do really well as there aren't too many technical holes. If you slice or pull it, you'll be in trouble.

Vegas

This was my first time playing here. The course was in decent shape although the greens were bumpy and full of unrepaired pitch marks.
The course has some terrific holes and nice views. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only issue--and it was a big one--was the terribly slow pace of play. We started on #7, apparently to accommodate a large group. Our round took five and one-half hours (5.5.) For a course of this stature, and price, to subject their guests to such a slow round of golf is appalling. There is simply no excuse for it. And as such, as nice as the course/surroundings are, I likely will not return. It was extremely disappointing.

muni experience at resort prices

i’ve played here several times and prior experiences were better. my foursome all arrived at airport on a Sunday and drove out for our first round. We arrived and unloaded in parking lot and walked up to the clubhouse entrance. Several employees were sitting or standing around . No one offered to help with bags or give directions. i finally asked about a cart and the fellow seemed a bit annoyed but pointed to a cart and said “go ahead and take that one. My buddy and i loaded our own bags then had to ask how to get to pro shop. There are 2 courses ( one resort and one private ) and minimal signage and it’s a challenge to figure out where to go. We finally got checked in and set out to hit a few balls. Again poor signage and hard to navigate to the range. We teed off from #7 - again hard to find. Our rate included some drink tickets good only for cheapest beer or water. course was in pretty good shape and fun layout and we had a good golf day . We came in at the end and unloaded clubs at car then walked up to grab a beer and use our remaining tickets . Clubhouse was closed up and locked. One of my guys did get let in to use restroom before we drove off. Overall a decent course but didn’t feel welcomed at all.
