Course Reviews

There is nothing I love better than playing golf on great golf courses with my golfguy and it’s a double bonus if we can stay and play at all inclusive golf resorts.  We’ve enjoy those wonderfully decadent getaways and hope to do many more!

Legacy Golf Club – Scottish Links in Las Vegas

One of my favorite places to play golf is Las Vegas – not for the gambling in the casinos, but the gambles I take on all the great courses the city of sin has to offer. I’ve played at probably 10 courses in Vegas, and liked most of them, but one of my favorite courses is Legacy Golf Club in …

BO GFW: Angel Park Mountain – Golf that’s juusst right!

This past spring, my golfguy and I spent 5 days in Las Vegas, playing golf at a different club every day (Angel Park Palm, Boulder Creek, Revere, Angel Park Mountain and Legacy). We had some interesting experiences, some bad experiences and some really memorable ones. Today was one of the memorable ones because it was just sooo “nice”. “Nice” seems …
