The course is well maintained and beautiful in places, however no course can withstand the experience of 747s taking off directly overhead at an elevation of under 500 feet. This occurred with a frequency of about every thirty seconds.
Secondly, the MGM/Mirage properties use this course for many of their high rollers. Consequently, you get foursomes of golfers who are EXTREMELY SLOW, but large enough gamblers that the staff would never think to hurry them along. The result, a 5+ hour round of aircraft and helicoptors directly overhead. At the conclusion of the round, I wanted nothing more than to lie alone in a quiet room.
As a result of the location, directly on the Strip, you are forced to pay $300 to play a course whose value is closer to $100, and actually zero since no one should be forced to play under those conditions. If you have the option, pay $1000 and play Shadow Creek twice.
