Paiute Golf Resort
Since
opening in 1995, The Las Vegas Paiute Resort has been known for excellent golf, beautiful conditioning,
and being the only place in Nevada where you can play Pete Dye golf. The
original two courses at the Paiute Resort, the Sun and Snow Mountain, were considered gentle, forgiving layouts-that
is for Dye standards, at least. However in 2001, the Wolf course brought
back Dye and his bite. A 7,600 yard course, The Wolf is long, penal-everything you would expect from
the TPC favorite. The resort is a 3,800-acre Native American resort located
on the Paiute reservation 20 minutes northwest of downtown Las Vegas.
In the northwest desert outside Las Vegas are three Pete Dye masterpieces
at Las Vegas Paiute Golf Club. The serenity of the land (which is the
first multi-course resort built entirely on Native American soil) is one
of Paiute's most noticeable assets, with fairways lined with yucca and
Joshua trees.
Snow Mountain course was the first opened in 1995. The Sun Mountain followed
a year later, and finally the Wolf opened in 2001.
The first two kinder, gentler Snow Mountain and Sun Mountain layouts
may have you questioning the accuracy of the name under the design credit.
But Dye eschewed from his signature tour-style course in favor of an easier,
resort-friendly approach.
"The driving areas on our golf courses are very generous, there's
lot of room, but we also have water hazards and the desert coming in to
play," General Manager Dick Huff said. "Then there's the well-bunkered
small greens that get very firm in our winds. Both courses are good tests
from the back tees.
