Revere Golf Club - Concord Review

With dramatic elevation changes, two superbly maintained tournament-caliber courses, lavish practice facilities and a glass-walled mountaintop clubhouse with sublime views of the valley, The Revere Golf Club in upscale Anthem delivers an unforgettable golf experience.

Impeccably manicured greens and fairways are the rule, in any season, and guests will soon note how many holes play along some of the highest points in the valley. There's an enchanting view in one or more directions on virtually every hole on both courses, a view that stretches to snow-capped Mount Charleston in the west, the glittering Vegas Strip to the north and the surrounding mountains everywhere. The views are enhanced by many elevated teeing areas that also give players a gratifying perch from which to view shots climbing against the dramatic backdrops. Typically buttressed by huge boulders, many of the broad tees are architectural marvels, along with the contoured brick retaining walls that frame many of the fairways cut through canyons embroidered by thousands of colorful desert plants.

GOLF Magazine named Revere's first course -- the par-72, 7,143-yard Lexington -- one of the top new courses in America in 2000, and the club added a similarly styled layout -- the par-72, 7,034-yard Concord -- in June 2002. Both were designed by PGA Tour Hall-of-Famer Billy Casper and Phoenix-based architect Greg Nash. Both courses play well and look good.

At Revere there's always a great sense of open space in which to relax, enjoy the views and focus on golf.

The Concord (rating/slope: 72.8/126) is slightly more forgiving than Lexington. Fairways are generally a bit wider, and the elevation changes are less severe.

Four moderate to long par 3's (174-241 yards) are nicely balanced by four shorter par 5's. No. 9 plays just 508 yards, but it's all uphill. Bunkers left and right can catch tee shots on the dogleg left; and even from wedge distance out on the third shot, half the green is obscured by a huge bunker front right. Tough par!

The key is many elevation changes can make many holes play longer or shorter than they appear on the scorecard. The 184-yard, par-3 No. 5 plays downhill over a beautiful rock-braced pond. The par-4 15th hole plays just 361 yards, but it's all uphill, and the approach is blind. The par-4 13th and 14th holes play 449 and 447 yards, respectively, but the fairways are well below the tee boxes, inviting some monster drives and shortening the holes considerably.

Depending on the prevailing wind, a big drive on the 551-yard, par-5 18th can set up a chance to reach the green in two. From 270 yards out, the fairway drops sharply the rest of the way to the green, which is fronted by a rock channel and backed by nine bunkers. It's one of those holes -- and there are several on both courses -- that a player never will forget, and it provides a perfect finish to an unforgettable round.
