Palm CourseVoted Best of Las Vegas, Angel Park Golf Club is 20 minutes
north-west of McCarran International Airport and Las Vegas Strip located at Summerlin
Parkway and Rampart Boulevard across from the Suncoast and Regent Hotel Casinos.
Angel Park Golf is commonly referred to as "the
world's most complete golf experience." Here you can enjoy the challenge and beauty
of two Arnold Palmer-designed 18-hole championship golf courses, experience the thrill of
the game's most famous par-threes on the Cloud Nine Short Course, and test your mettle
against the intriguing putting course.
The Mountain Course is one of two 18-hole golf courses at
Angel Park Golf Club. The Mountain Course challenges golfers with occasional forced
carries over canyons and gorges, sloping greens and wide fairways guarded by bunkers and
flowing native grasses. The Mountain course plays longer than its Palm Course counterpart,
yet offers a fair test for golfers of all abilities. At an elevation of 2,800 feet the
Mountain Course offers golfers dramatic vistas of the Spring mountains, Red Rock Canyon,
and the Las Vegas skyline.
The Palm Course is one of two 18-hole golf courses at the
facility that is billed as the world’s most complete golf experience. The Palm course
is a resort friendly desert layout that winds through the northwest Las Vegas desert and
offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The Palm course plays slightly shorter
than its sister course, the Mountain, yet the challenging par-3s and spectacular water
features challenge golfers of all skill levels.

A project to extend the lake separating the ninth and
18th holes on Angel Park Golf Club's Mountain course will, when completed this year, make
the two par-4 holes more difficult. Angel Park is planning to spend $1.4 million to
upgrade the lake, extending it out nearly to the tee boxes on Nos. 9 and 18. Currently,
the water doesn't come into play on a golfer's tee shot and only affects the shot into the
green. But after the renovation, it will play a factor on both shots. The move is designed
to increase the lake's storage capacity for effluent water, which is used to irrigate the
course. General manager Carl von Hake said Angel Park management also decided to use the
lake expansion to improve the playability of the two holes. "The lake becomes much
more of a factor the way this will be set up," von Hake said. "It provides a
much stiffer challenge and is going to force the golfers to make decisions about how and
where they hit their shots." In addition to expanding the lake on the Mountain
course, von Hake said Angel Park will be relining the lakes on the Palm course and making
improvements to the pro shop and the restaurant. He said the pro shop and restaurant
improvement would cost about $500,000.
