Drive times from Strip hotels

Free-flow estimates from our map. Real times on Las Vegas Blvd are slower at almost all hours; Koval Ln, Paradise Rd and Frank Sinatra Dr are the parallel back roads.

Wynn Golf Club

Wynn Golf Club is a Tom Fazio redesign that reopened in October 2019 after the original Wynn course closed in December 2017. It is parkland with water features and the Strip towers as the backdrop. A shared cart and a mandatory caddie come with the round (gratuity extra), with on-course food and soft drinks and Callaway rental clubs at no charge; alcohol is extra.

Pricing tracks hotel demand: a September 2026 report put it at $450 to $1,000, with the top end during the holidays and Grand Prix week. Wynn and Encore guests get booking priority. Book through the Golf Concierge at (702) 770-4653. See the Wynn Golf Club course guide and our Wynn Golf Club guide.

Bali Hai Golf Club

Bali Hai is a flat, South Seas-themed public course on the south Strip, with palms, water and an island green, and no hotel restriction. Book on TeeItUp or GolfNow, or call (702) 597-2400. The club's own posts give peak rates of $250 to $300, or $150 to $300 with off-peak lows in the high $80s; GolfNow sold an August 10, 2026 tee time for $104.99 with cart. There is a tiki bar after the round. See the Bali Hai course guide and the Bali Hai golf guide.

Las Vegas National

Las Vegas National is tree-lined, old-Vegas parkland on E Desert Inn Rd, a few minutes east of the Strip, with no hotel tie-in needed. Green Fee Tracker listed $179 weekday and weekend in April 2026. The club lists rental clubs at $69, or $59 after noon, with new Callaway and TaylorMade sets for 2026 (page undated). For a big table after the round, Original Lindo Michoacan is about 1 km away. See the Las Vegas National course guide and the Las Vegas National guide.

Las Vegas Golf Club

Las Vegas Golf Club on W Washington Ave is the oldest course in the valley, a William P. Bell design from 1938, now city-owned and run by Arcis Golf. It is flat and 6,319 yards per Arcis. GolfNow showed prepaid hot deals around $40 with cart for 2026 dates. Residents book on a separate site. It is cheap and simple rather than a highlight.

When to play golf near the Las Vegas Strip

The Strip courses follow the same seasons as the rest of the valley: spring and fall are peak, December to February is cooler and cheaper, and June to September is cheapest, with first-light tee times. What is different close in is events. During the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 19-21, 2026), road closures and grandstand construction around the Strip, Koval Ln, Harmon Ave and Sands Ave have disrupted traffic for weeks in past editions, and Wynn Golf Club's price peaks that week. New Year's Eve brings Strip road closures for the fireworks. CES (January 6-9, 2027) stretches taxis and restaurants. On those dates, allow far more time than the drive table shows, or play further out. See Las Vegas events calendar for golfers.
