here is no shortage of golf
courses in the greater Las Vegas
area, from expensive resort
tracks to more moderately priced
munis. But it's a safe bet that there isn't

Angel Park. Located about 13 miles
west of the heart of the fabled Las
Vegas Strip, Angel Park includes two
championship-length 18-hole layouts, a
12-hole par-3 track, and a 9-hole put-

truly is something for everyone. It's a
place you can bring the entire family."
Regardless of its golfing options,
Angel Park prides itself on its consis-

each of the four golf choices offer
views of both the Las Vegas Strip and
the surrounding mountain ranges.
The two 18-hole options include the
Mountain Course and the Palm
