Going to Vegas next wed. which is always fun. Looking forward to watching the opening round of the NCAA tourney in the sports book.
I'm also gonna squeeze in a round of golf. My buddy got us a tee time at Angel Park. He said it normally is $100 for green fees, but we get it at $25, I guess because we're staying a Harrah's. Is this a nice course? Is it tough? etc...
Thanks for any help.

I just played their par 3 course, called Cloud Nine, about 3 weeks ago. I thought this was a great little course, and if the full courses are similar, you are in for a treat.

Lean, for $25 it's worth a play.
I am highly biased against the course's management as they did not tell us they were doing heavy maintenance work to the course the day we went to play. They charged us over $100 per person and when we got on the course we find out they are dethatching the entire course... rough, fairways, etc. There was at least four inches of thatched grass everywhere. At no time did they ever disclose this and then wouldn't refund our money or even offer a discount.
Hopefully, you will have a better experience than we did.

I've played the Palms course and the Mountain course, the Moutain Course is the tougher of the two, and is longer, there is more dessert out there to hit it into on bad shots some forced carries and such. The Palms course is greener and def has less exposed dessert. The range is off matts but lots of room, they have a large putting green, and if you have time and want to have some fun the Par 3 course can be played at night under the lights. The staff were very good to me when I was there, and the lounge isn't a bad place to enjoy a drink and watch some Basketball too. I was there last year at the end of March so it was crazy at the sportsbook leading up to the final four. Have fun and for $25 you can't miss. If you don't have your own car, I would suggest taking a limo or town car service out there it ends up being the same amount for a cab to get out there.
