Overview
Tom Fazio did his thing at one of his newer Discovery Land Properties, The Summit Club, maximizing exceptional views of the Las Vegas Strip on this land that sits about 3,000 feet above sea level. Fazio routed the course and molded the land in a way so that every hole is secluded from the next—similar to what he did at Shadow Creek. Summit Club, a runner-up for Golf Digest’s 2017 Best New private award, offers a strong variety of holes—with optionality particularly on the par 5s. You’ll find the typical Discovery Land offerings here—with multiple comfort stations including Jerry’s—which we got a sneak peek into last year as one of the best halfway houses in the U.S.

Review
“Greens were in excellent condition, with some subtle undulations and some severe break (reflecting the mountain range behind the course). Hospitality is amazing, with great food, drink and facilities to refresh during the round."

“Beautiful new course destined to become a must-play track in the Vegas area. While the Discovery Land courses sometimes value the extras over the golf, The Summit Club keeps them a bit to the side and allows the golf to shine through. While not a very strategically-oriented layout, every hole is solid, and you feel like you are interacting with the landscape despite the heavy hand of manicured surrounds."
