Las Vegas Country Club, Golf course in Winchester, Las Vegas, US.
Las Vegas Country Club is a private 18-hole golf course in Winchester, Las Vegas, designed by Edmond B. Ault with a par of 72. Its 44,000-square-foot clubhouse, designed by Julian Gabrielle, opened in April 1968. The grounds include two pitching and chipping greens, a 9,500-square-foot putting green, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, racquetball, a swimming pool and an exercise facility.
The course was built in 1967 on the grounds of a former racetrack and the clubhouse was completed by architect Julian Gabrielle in 1968. This transformation marked a shift in how the land was used and helped shape golf culture in the area.
The course serves as a gathering place for the local golf community, where members regularly come to play and socialize with fellow enthusiasts. The manicured greens and clubhouse create a space where golf is part of everyday social life rather than just a sport.
Access is limited to members and approved hotel guests who can use all the facilities on the grounds. The best time to play is during the cooler morning hours, especially during the hotter months.
The land under the course was a horse and auto racetrack called Las Vegas Park in the 1950s, and the Dutch source names it Las Vegas Downs before it went bankrupt. Investor Joe Brown bought the land and later sold it to Marvin Kratter, who wanted a country club there.
