Designed by Clive Clark I Perry Dye, Pete Dye. The Hideaway boasts an 18-hole Pete Dye layout that has been thoughtfully modified by son, Perry. He enhanced the visual aspect, raising many tees, framing greens, and also eliminating several unfair pot bunkers. The Clive Clark-designed course provides a second very palatable venue, with striking looks similar to a Tom Fazio design. Not only is reciprocal play not accepted but membership is by invitation only. The yardage listed is for the Clark Clive Course. From Los Angeles (about 130 miles east to the course): Take I-10 toward Palm Springs and exit and bear right on Washington Street. Take Washington Street to Avenue 52 and turn left. At the roundabout, bear right on Jefferson Street. The entrance to the Hideaway is midway between Avenues 52 and 54. Many upscale resorts and private clubs can spell "customer service." The Hideaway defines it. Simply the best service and a most attractive golf offering.

Designed by Billy Casper, Greg Nash. Although the course accommodates the senior population with wide fairways and large greens, the undulating and tricky greens will challenge even the low handicapper. Locals know to always play the break to move toward the Las Vegas Strip. The course makes its way around a housing development, giving it a links feel. Carts are rewebsite: uired and included in your green fees. From the Las Vegas Airport (about 22 miles northwest to the course): Take I-215 west to the last exit (until they build I-215 out farther), which is Summerlin Parkway, and turn right. Turn left on Anasazi. The club is on the right. past Lake Mead Boulevard.
