Question of the Day - 11 January 2026

Q:

Myself and three of my friends (all over 70) are coming in March to play golf. But we can only play nine holes. Which of the local courses offer nine-hole options?

A:

Here are Las Vegas area golf courses that offer nine-hole golf options, whether as dedicated nine-hole layouts or shorter/par-three courses you can play in about nine holes.

These are the dedicated nine-hole courses.

North Las Vegas Municipal Golf Course is a public nine-hole par-three course.

Las Vegas Golf & Driving Range is a lighted nine-hole (par-three-style) golf course on the Strip.

Cloud 9 at Angel Park Golf Club is a nine-hole short course (par-three-style) at Angel Park. 

Sunrise Vista Golf Course has multiple nine-hole courses (Eagle, Falcon, Phantom) that can be played individually (public or semi-public depending on course). 

Durango Hills Golf Club is an executive-style 18-hole course (mostly par-3 with some par-4), easily playable as nine holes.

Boulder Creek Golf Club in Boulder City features three distinct 9-hole courses — Desert Hawk, Coyote Run, and Eldorado Valley — allowing flexible 9-, 18-, or 27-hole rounds.

Desert Willow Golf Course isn't a true nine-hole course, but it features executive/par-three-style holes and many golfers play shorter rounds here, especially for practice or quick rounds.

    Golf - Google it!
    Quicker to google than write the QOD.  All but one course that's listed in the QOD comes up quickly online.  Please save the QOD for things that can't be found by a quick online search.

    Top Golf
    Would suggest going to Top Golf if you only have time for 9 holes, a ton of fun, you rent a bay by the hour so you can split the bill, food, drinks, etc.
