In Henderson, you get
a sense of community

Just south of Las Vegas is the suburb of Henderson, which from 1999-2002 was the fastest growing city in North America. Along with it came a growing golf scene.

"It's growing and becoming more and more of a golf destination," says Dan Romstead, Director of Sales at Lake Las Vegas in Henderson. "The beauty of Henderson is there is a little more community [than Las Vegas] and there is a lot of great golf within Henderson. You don't have to stay in the hustle an bustle of the 'strip'."

Lake Las Vegas Resort is virtually a golf destination onto itself, with its Jack Nicklaus designed Reflection Bay course, the newly opened Tom Weiskopf designed Falls Golf Club, a Hyatt Regency and a luxurious Ritz Carlton hotel.

Henderson also fits a variety of budgets, according to Romstead. Golfers looking to find a bargain are in luck, as well as golfers who are looking for the glitz and glamour found closer to the strip.

The Revere at Anthem is set in the towns foothills and sports an 18-hole layout from Billy Casper and Greg Nash with a Revolutionary War theme. Rio Secco, the Legacy Golf Club, the venerable Black Mountain Golf and Country Club and Dragon Ridge Golf and Country Club round out Henderson's rapidly growing honor roll.
