Reflection Bay Golf Club at Lake Las Vegas Resort
When you want to be challenged by a Jack Nicklaus golf course in Las Vegas, you go to Reflection Bay Golf Club. Reflection Bay is the first public resort golf course in Nevada personally designed by Nicklaus and the Bear's efforts have racked up awards, including a Golf Digest Top 100 rating. The host course to the nationally televised Wendy's Three-Tour Challenge benefiting the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, Reflection Bay has seen pro golf stars like Annika Sorenstam, Fred Couples and John Daly challenge its striking water looks.
The 7,261-yard, par-72 Reflection Bay weaves its way through the desert in a flurry of green, green fairways. The real stars may be the breathtaking views of Lake Las Vegas, though. Sculpted from the terrain's natural rocks, complete with strategic bunkering and pristine greens, the golf course features three waterfalls and plays around arroyos and plenty of wet stuff.
Five holes run right along one and a half miles of Lake Las Vegas' shoreline. Reflection Bay highlights include the picturesque 199-yard, par-3 eighth hole and beaches, bunkers and palms that create a dynamic shoreline and unforgettable backdrops.
