Recently
selected as the "Best New Course in Las Vegas" by Vegas
Golfer Magazine and their readers, Aliante Golf Club has been receiving
rave reviews ever since.
This memorable 18-hole championship course was designed by Scottsdale-based
Gary Panks Associates. Gary Panks has a long-standing reputation
for designing golf courses that enhance the environment, create
value, and provide an enjoyable experience for golfers. For the
Aliante Golf Club, Panks designed a 6,900-yard, par-72 course.
He emphasized that careful consideration was given to both the
enjoyment of golfers and the safety and convenience of home owners.
"Since this will be a public golf course, we are maximizing
turf to approximately 125 acres, which will offer wide landing
areas for golfers and a good degree of safety for homeowners,"
Panks said, adding that the physical characteristics of the terrain
enabled his design team to create a series of very interesting
and challenging holes. In other areas, the landscape pallet provides
for ample shade trees and massing of shrubs and ground covers,
while smaller flowering trees add abundant color and texture.
The golf shop features a retail facility, a restaurant/snack
bar and a covered pavilion and patio that can accommodate group
events. |
