St. Mark hits the mark!

Great staff, great vibe, great grill, great greens. MGF-(Mandatory Golf Friday). You always get a warm welcome at the pro-shop before the round, good pace of play and course during the round, and a fantastic grill/bar after the round. They definitely hit the mark!

What every course should strive to be...

What can I say except,....Maderas NEVER disappoints. Friendly, helpful staff; plenty posh, but not at all pretentious. Great course, great conditions, great facility, great staff..... Did I leave anything out???
(Oh yeah, I got my truck detailed on site for a fair price while I played). Bottomline, these guys have it figured out. If in San Diego, it's worth the trip. For $65 on GolfNow,... it was a steal.

P.S. They also have golf boards!

"Welcome to Las Vegas"

My 2nd time to play this course, and definitely has become my go-to golf venue when in Vegas. Very near the strip, great lay-out, very good conditions, interesting history signs throughout the course and an incredibly friendly staff. Everyone from the pro shop, to the restaurant, all the way in to the cart barn is extremely enthusiastic and friendly. In addition, LVN has golf boards and bikes. So much fun, and improves the pace of play. I highly recommend Las Vegas National!

"It is what it is:" ...Great short game practice & value.

Look... Is it plush? No. Is it a little rough around the edges? Yep. That said, if you want an enjoyable walking experience that you can complete in 90 minutes, get in some great short game practice and pay less than 20 bucks for some somewhat challenging golf.....You've found your place.

Who doesn't need to practice wedge shots, chipping & putting?..(which is time better spent for most hackers.) How would you like to do it for maybe just a bit more than you'd pay for a bucket of balls at a fancier place?

I'd believe $ spent playing this course versus $ spent banging balls at the range would benefit most golfers more, and...they'd have a more enjoyable time.

Target golf, ... Very small, often domed greens make par a lot more challenging than you would think for 100 yd. or < Par 3's.

Give it a try. I think you will find it to be money and time well spent.

Has Improved a lot!

Boulder Oaks, formerly Meadowlake, has improved a lot since its' turf reduction "make-over." The lay-out is a bit quirky, but can be fun and challenging. Greens are in great shape and run fast, especially on some of the more undulating greens. What it lacks in distance, it can make up for in shot making and putting. At $15 on Golfnow, it's an extraordinary value!

Incredible value, Worth the drive.

I can't believe I played this course for $15. Great layout, very good and fast greens, extraordinary value. It takes a little bit extra effort to get there (base access and a drive) but, trust me, it is well worth the effort. Highly recommend.

Little Gem

What a great executive course! Great greens, a nice walk and an incredible value. For barely more than the price of a large bucket, you can sharpen your short game and improve your fitness. Such a great course to walk. Highly recommend!
