DESERT LAKES GOLF CLUB (928) 768-1000
Las Vegas Golf Course Review
Desert Lakes Golf Club, located in Bullhead City just 15 minutes from Laughlin, provides the area with a value golf experience, ideal for mid to high
handicappers, beginners and those looking for a good warm up prior to playing some of the area's more challenging layouts. The course is fairly flat, with
a few rolling fairways that play to mostly raised greens that are small in size with very little undulations. Bunkers are also few in number, and water comes into play on just 2 holes.
The 6569 yard layout (119 slope rating) winds it's way through a residential community, with some nice views of the desert mountains in the distance.
Palm trees, pines and other native foliage are abundant. Players will find that they will be able to practice a good variety of approaches, with the bump
and run from level areas in front of the greens a recurring option. The fairways are reasonably open and player friendly - as there are no fairway bunkers.
The course provides yardage info with 100/150/200 yard blocks in the fairways, as well as visible 150 yard stakes on all par fours and fives. Most
experienced golfers can handle the back tees, but the middle tees provide a decent test of yardage at 6267 yards with a 115 slope. Women, seniors,
juniors and beginners will find the forward tees extremely playable at 5440 yards with a slope rating of 114. A practice green and aqua driving range are
on property, and the clubhouse features a grill, lounge and outdoor patio.
Desert Lakes is an Eagle Golf property and is featured in special golf package rates with various Laughlin Casinos.
