Golf Trip
This week we are off to sunny Las Vegas for a 3 day golf trip
Day 1 - Reflection Bay Golf Club
Let's talk about Reflection Bay Golf Club in Henderson, NV. Nestled in the luxurious Lake Las Vegas community resort, this gem 💎 is a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design course that's all about the views and vibes. Imagine teeing off with the sun kissing the mountain tops while the lake reflects the beauty like a giant, shiny mirror. 🌅
The course itself? A challenging yet fair 72-par beauty that's been the host of the Wendy's 3Tour Challenge. It's got rolling fairways, tricky bunkers, and greens that'll test your putting skills. And let's not forget the five holes right along the lake that'll make your heart skip a beat (or your ball, if you're not careful!). 🌊
After the round, chill out at the clubhouse with a cold one 🍺 and some tasty grub. The vibe is all about laid-back luxury, making you feel like a pro even if your swing says otherwise (we know it does).
Day 2 - Rio Secco Golf Club
Ready to conquer Rio Secco Golf Club in Henderson, NV? This desert dazzler, designed by the legendary Rees Jones, is a golfer's paradise with 18 holes of pure bliss and challenge. 🌵
Picture this: You're standing on lush fairways surrounded by stunning high desert scenery, with the Vegas Strip views in the distance. It's not just a game; it's an experience! The course layout is a thrilling mix of daring shots and strategic plays, making every hole an adventure. 🎢
But wait, there's more! The greens are as smooth as your best putt, and the elevation changes will test your club selection skills. And if you're looking to up your game, the Butch Harmon School of Golf is right on-site. After your round, the 19th hole awaits with a hearty cheer and a cold drink.
Day 3 - Wynn Golf Club
Get ready to tee off at the luxurious Wynn Golf Club right off the Las Vegas Strip. This is where high rollers meet their match on the greens! 💰🌿
Designed by the renowned Tom Fazio, this 18-hole masterpiece is an oasis in the desert. Imagine lush fairways, sparkling water features, and challenging bunkers, all set against the backdrop of those iconic Vegas skyscrapers. It's like hitting the jackpot with every swing! 🌇
The course is a par 70, offering a variety of holes that cater to both the power hitters and the strategic thinkers. And those greens? As smooth as the felt on a blackjack table. Whether you're sinking birdies or just soaking in the views, Wynn Golf Club delivers an ace experience. 🎉
