Golf Course Design
For the greatest golf getaway in the game, there’s only one place to play: Primm Valley Golf Club. Here the natural beauty of the land and ultimate challenge of the game come together to create one of the finest golf experiences in the world. Designed by renowned golf architect Tom Fazio, Primm Valley Golf Club features two award-winning courses, the Lakes Course and the Desert Course. Fazio has created a lush green, golfers paradise in the middle of the desert with distant mountains that shimmer golden in the morning, and turn serenely purple against an orange sky in the late afternoon.
The Lakes Course opened in February of 1997 and was quickly given the ranking as one of the Top Ten Best New Courses that same year by Golf Digest Magazine. The Lakes Course will take you out of the desert and into another world. Complete with dense groves of tall pine trees, an extensive lakes and river system (in play on 11 holes) and acre-upon-acre of beautifully manicured green rye grass interrupted only by numerous bunkers. Generous fairways that slope towards the middle make the course very player friendly, but don’t be fooled. This 6,945-yard par-71 course is a challenge that puts even the best golfer to the test. The undulating, well-bunkered greens and plenty of water hazards will make it difficult to tame this beautiful beast.
The Desert Course opened in May 1998 and was built to showcase the beautiful desert landscaping and providing a stark contrast to the almost-tropical Lakes Course. Slightly more demanding of the player’s ability, it measures 7,131 yards with a par of 72. The course is accented with palm and mesquite trees, as well as colorful cactus and desert wildflowers to give it a true desert feeling. Where water was used on the Lakes Course, vast stretches of waste bunkers border the fairways on seven holes. Water does come into play on five holes, and narrow fairways with elevation changes and large, well-bunkered greens test even the most skilled players.
