ABOUT THE COURSES

CASCATA
Cascata's private gates open to a spectacular landscape that forms a regal backdrop for a golf experience like no other. The par-72 course provides stunning vistas at every turn, including the 3,600-foot peak at Red Mountain, lush fairways, lakes, and streams. Class A PGA professionals attend to equipment, fashion or instruction needs, and players are accompanied on-course by a Tour-class caddie.

DRAGON RIDGE
Located in the McCullough Mountains, high above the Las Vegas Valley floor, DragonRidge is a unique Country Club that offers features unsurpassed in Southern Nevada. DragonRidge complements the impressive portfolios of noted golf course architects Jay Morrish and David Druzisky. Between them, the two have built other well-known facilities such as Troon North and the TPC Stadium Course in Scottsdale, Arizona, Forest Highlands in Flagstaff, Arizona, the Reserve in Palm Springs, and many others. At DragonRidge, Morrish and Druzisky have designed a true "Members Course" that is challenging for all skill levels. With unobstructed views of the entire valley, DragonRidge consists of an 18-hole, par 72 layout that stretches to 6,975 yards. With the innovative use of natural hillsides and canyons, the topography that makes up DragonRidge and the entire MacDonald Highlands community, is simply breathtaking.

SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS
Southern Highlands Golf Club provides an unmatched experience in the secluded foothills of Las Vegas. Where traditions of the grand game of golf live on and privacy and indulgence are the ultimate rewards. With limited membership, expect a traditional, exclusive club experience every time you play, from caddie and valet service, to the excitement of playing on a nationally recognized course.
