Angel Park Cloud Nine and Putting Course Review
Two plush Arnold Palmer-designed courses, a lighted 12-hole (par-3) Cloud Nine Short Course and a lighted all-grass putting course make Angel Park the most diversified golf facility in the city. All four courses feature mature grass and are always meticulously groomed. For added entertainment or a quick bite, a Mediterranean-style clubhouse with a generous patio looks out on waterfalls and ponds that surround The World's Original Putting Course and help cool the air on those warm summer nights. Besides great golf, the club and staff create a friendly atmosphere to help make Angel Park a great spot for a post-round meal or casual date.
Bob Cupp, 1992 Golf Architect of the Year, designed Cloud Nine Short Course, the 12-hole, par-3 course, which opened in 1993. The holes were designed with similar shot values as some of the most famous (or infamous) holes from around the world. Holes play between 85 and 146 yards, and many are heavily bunkered. The 92-yard first hole plays to a horseshoe-shaped "double green." The 100-yard 10th hole features an island green. On the 96-yard 11th, a bunker lies nearly in the middle of the green. Playing a quick 12 here is a great way to have some fun working on the all-important short game.
The World's Original Putting Course, Angel Park's unique, lighted putting course (opened in 1990), comes complete with scorecards detailing distances -- from 50 to 180 feet. There are also mini-sand bunkers and flags with shorter-than-standard sticks.
Angel Park also offers an award-winning youth program -- it was VegasGolfer magazine's 2002 readers' pick for the best in the city. Junior camps are offered in summer.
