Played here Wednesday morning as the first round of my trip. Just wanted to check this one off the list. I had called ahead earlier in the week and they put me down for a 9:30 tee time, though it really wasn't necessary. I arrived closer to 8:30 and went out right away. Played through one foursome of ladies and otherwise had the course to myself for a very quick round. $25 price with cart. Actually cheaper to show up or book over phone compared to their online/GN rate of $29 (plus booking fees). Conditions were okay and about what I expected from a low-end executive course all the way out in Pahrump in late May. Tee boxes pretty beat up with firm dirt base, but never a problem finding a place to tee it up. Fairways on the par-4s were a mix, but adequate I suppose. Rough was a hodge podge with a few decent areas, a lot of bare hardpan dirt and then mostly patchy clumps. Sand traps were actually alright. Biggest issue for me was the greens. What they didn't tell me when I booked over the phone—or when I checked in—and mentioned it was my first (and only) time here is that they are currently doing maintenance on the greens and a majority of holes (I believe 12 out of the 18) were playing to tiny temp greens shaved down in front of the normal greens. The few greens still in play were a bit rough and the temp greens were even less consistent. I wasn't expecting much, but this was a real unpleasant surprise to turn around each corner and see another temp green in play! Oh well, just glad to get this out-of-the-way course checked off my list with no plans of ever returning. Not much appeal here and it seems to only attract local (mostly senior) play. The layout is 18 holes and a total par of 59. All the par-4s are short, but the par-3s are a wide mix of distances. So, you do at least get to use some different clubs and I'm sure it's more enjoyable with all the normal greens in play. Still, nothing to recommend with this one.
