Primm Valley Golf Club - Lakes Course
About
The Lakes Course is one of two championship courses designed by Tom Fazio at Primm Valley Golf Club. It was the club's original layout before it was joined by the Desert Course a year later. As its name would imply, the Lakes Course features an intricate system of lakes and rivers weaving through the layout and coming into play on 11 holes. The layout is challenging but playable with elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers that are balanced by large greens and wide, player-friendly fairways. One of the golf course's most memorable holes is the par-5 second. This challenging 530-yard hole plays around a massive lake but with an accurate second shot, it is reachable in two. There is also water the left of the green and a bunker in front.

Course needs Alot of repair
We have played these courses since 2010. Always looked forward to coming back.
Desert looks completely unplayable. Zero grass on fairways and greens 90% dead.
Lakes course looks like it is recovering from a really tough case of fungus in greens. Fairways are patchy and bare in spots but looks like grass is on its way back.
Many trees on this property are cut down and laying where they fell. Lots of clean up needed.
All bunker have lots of small rocks in the sand.
Hopefully ownership cares about these courses enough to hire qualified staff to get it back to a level of condition and set up that is reasonable. Lots of work is needed.
Good course
I've played there before when the conditions were better. Not bad though for the time of year. Greens not in too good of shape. Fairways a little rough too. I like the course so much that that didn't matter.
Course closed
Headed out from Vegas for 11:00 am tee time. Hit a huge logjam
at Primm because they closed the highway due to poor road conditions much further up the highway. Fought traffic for a while but the road opened up just in time to make our tee time only to find the course was closed. Hoping the refund is on its way. Playing the course next day and will leave another review.
Winter wind and cold
We were pleasantly surprised by the conditions, especially since it's winter and poor conditions are expected. It was in good shape, with lots of grass, and the improvements made over the past year are very obvious. Kudos to the grounds keepers & mgmt staff. The near 100mph winds 2 days earlier had downed over 100 large trees on the course, but they had obviously worked feverishly to clear most of them enough to allow play. Despite the cold, cloudy and windy weather, we really enjoyed the round.
Sad decline
This course had a great layout and I’ve always enjoyed that. Having said that the greens are horrible. Half grass and half green sand. Fairways are just a little better than the greens. It’s a shame because this is a cool place to play. Wish they’d. Put more care into it. Desert course is almost lost as they struggle with green and fairway issues. Bummer
Excellent course. Greens need to green up but rolled true. Definitely play it again!!
It was a cold day….
Greens were being brought back nicely. Needs about 1 month of good weather. Course layout is great. Staff was great as well. Well worth the drive, not that far out of town. I would definitely recommend and play it again
Hopefully, a Return to Normal Soon
It’s a shame the courses here lost their greens and are in such tough shape. The layouts of both courses are excellent, and while the Lakes course is playable, it’s sad to see what the fungus has done to the greens. Hopefully, the course owner(s) will get the greens back to normal next year
Hello MGM - THIS is the way to ruin your investment!
What was a gem of two courses way out in Primm, has been reduced to a dog-track cow-patch!
NO ONE was playing there the day I went. SIX golfers were signed up.
They sent us out on the back because of "maintainance" yet there were worked all over every hole, it seems, blind and unconcerned that paying golfers were there.
It may be time to expand that solar farm behind these courses and take over this wasted destroyed golf venue!
Playable but a little rough
The T boxes were in pretty good shape. Several fairways were missing grass in spots and just had sand in these spots. The greens had sand on them as it is apparent they are trying to get this. Course back up to snuff.
We paid 50 bucks and considering the drive and the course condition it will not be my first choice to play at this price
Getting better
Some greens are unacceptable, over all it’s ok, it’s getting better but they really have to keep an eye on the details, greens still have islands and dip marks maybe from the mower or just was never fixed.
Staff is great.
Primm is Back!
After quite a few years of less than stellar conditions I firmly believe Primm is back. Well at least the lakes course. Fully lush conditions tee to green. Greens maybe need another 2-3 weeks to fully heal and speed up. Bunkers need more sand but are playable. If you can snag a teeoff deal time I would highly recommend playing here.
Great course
Course was in great condition. Greens were very soft and slow, a little rough in spots but overall a fun course to play. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great value. Lakes course was very picturesque and challenging from the blue tees.
