Black Mountain Golf and Country Club

Opened in 1957, Black Mountain Golf and Country Club is one of Las Vegas' classic golf clubs. While the recent boom in Henderson in the late-1990s created dozens of new courses and high greens fees, Black Mountain remains a true testament to the game on the course and in the wallet and is one of the most affordable and unique clubs in the area.

Black Mountain is a "blue collar country club," offering a luxurious place to golf for those looking for prime conditions, good service and affordability. The club is semi-private and golf packages and "stay-and-play" options are available for non-members.

The club plays a modest 6,550 yards from the championship tees, short for today's standards, but still holds its own. It was also the host of a U.S. Open qualifier years ago.

Greens are small and well-guarded, putting a premium on short-iron accuracy and short game shots. Adding to the traditional feel of the club, walking is allowed anytime at Black Mountain.

Despite being Las Vegas' third-oldest golf club, the conditions always rival that of the area's top new courses. The club is owned by the members themselves and has stood the test of time in a city where few establishments can.

Black Mountain is located in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson and is about a 20-minute drive from the Las Vegas strip.
