Golf in North Las Vegas

North Las Vegas is the Las Vegas Valley's third-largest city, an independent municipality in Clark County that has grown from a small community in the 1950s into a city of nearly 300,000. Historically the valley's working-class and working-family residential center, North Las Vegas has invested in planned community development — Aliante represents its most ambitious such project. Shadow Creek Golf Course in North Las Vegas is among the most discussed private golf experiences in Nevada: a Tom Fazio design commissioned by MGM Resorts on land that was essentially flat desert, transformed through enormous investment into a lush, tree-lined course reminiscent of the Carolina Lowcountry. The two courses — Aliante's community-oriented layout and Shadow Creek's exclusive resort experience — bracket the range of North Las Vegas golf.
