Course Details:
The Mountain Course at Angel Park Golf Club in Las Vegas, Nevada, designed by Arnold Palmer in 1989, is a public 18-hole layout renowned for its scenic beauty and challenging design. Stretching to 6,722 yards from the back tees with a slope rating of 132, the course is set against the backdrop of Red Rock Canyon and the Las Vegas skyline, offering stunning desert and mountain views. Featuring well-maintained fairways, strategic bunkering, and undulating greens, the Mountain Course is part of a 36-hole facility that includes a lighted driving range, a 9-hole par-3 course, and a putting course, making it a popular destination for locals and visitors alike.

How the Course Plays:
The Mountain Course plays with a balance of accessibility and challenge, with wide fairways that encourage confident tee shots but demand precision on approaches due to well-guarded greens and strategic hazards. The course’s elevation changes, particularly on the back nine, add complexity, with holes like the par-3 15th requiring accurate club selection over desert terrain. The par-5s offer risk-reward opportunities for aggressive players, while the desert landscape and occasional water hazards punish errant shots. With its forgiving layout for mid-handicappers and stunning vistas, the Mountain Course provides an enjoyable and memorable round for golfers of all skill levels.
