Opened in 1959, Wildhorse Golf Club received a facelift from Brian Curley and Lee Schmidt in 2004. The course has been rated one of the "Best Places to Play" by Golf Digest and is a fine choice for your next Las Vegas golf outing.
This course dates back to 1959 but received a facelift from Brian Curley and lee Schmidt in 2004. The par-70 championship golf course is a favorite among locals and a former PGA Tour stop.
You better bring your A-game if you plan on playing Wildhorse. Its par-4 398-yard ninth hole is one of the most difficult in southern Nevada, and Vegas Golfer Magazine rated it one of the toughest holes in the Las Vegas area. You'll need to be not only long but accurate off the tee. Keep your poise and focus, and you might come away from number nine with a respectful score; otherwise, it will eat you alive.
The facility includes a clubhouse, meeting areas, a pro shop, the Wildhorse Golf Academy and a snack bar and restaurant on site. All this makes Wildhorse Golf Club a 'must play' on your next Las Vegas golf outing.

Reader Ratings / Reviews
- Course was not in very good shape. Tee boxes and greens are very worn out. Fairways were ok. Staff was real nice.This course rests on top of what used to be a great golf course, Paradise Valley CC. Long and tough, at one time during the sixties and seventies, it was the only true championship course in Vegas.
Wildhorse isn’t terrible, but compared to what it once was, it’s a boring pitch-n-putt. Pretty sad.
This course was great to play very well maintained. Our rental clubs were better then expected, great deals on food and beverage.
Service from staff was excellent. Our Cab ride from the Excalibur to the course clubhouse was $26.00 USD for 1 wayAlthough Wildhorse is an older course it has par 5's that are not automatic birdie holes and some challenging par 4's as well. The greens are a little hairy normally on this course, however they react appropriately when a ball lands onto them. For example if you hit a wedge into a green it will check up. Some courses in Vegas you can't even land the ball on the green and hope to get close to the pin. Also this course is cheap, it may not be your championship course but it is a playable and enjoyable experience that calls for shot shaping on a few holes.
