Revere Golf Club - Lexington 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 Lexington (rating/slope: 73.6/139) plays as the tougher of the two and offers a taste of everything: par 3's from 166-238 yards; par 4's from 379-442 yards; and par 5's from 489-625 yards. No. 11 plays a monstrous 625 yards, but from the tee it's more beautiful than intimidating. Two crosscut fairways run through a canyon some 80 feet below the tee box. Hitting the wider right side allows for a clear second shot to the layup area on the dogleg-left design, but a shot to the narrower left side opens up the green and even can offer a chance to reach it in two. The elevated putting surface is protected by sand bunkers front right and back.
Lexington's toughest rated hole is No. 3, a 442-yard par 4. The fairway is heavily bunkered right, while the green is guarded by several grass bunkers along its right side and desert encroaching from the left.
No. 17 is a 166-yard par-3 to a long but narrow green that's fronted by a waterfall, backed by a pond and guarded by two large bunkers left and in back. It's a knee-knocker for anyone and one of the prettiest par 3's in the valley.
