Cascata

Course Type: Resort

Design Role: New Design 2000

Co-Designer(s): Keith Evans

Client Course Description

Cascata is celebrated as one of the finest designs in the world. Only 30 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, the par-72 course provides stunning vistas at every turn, including the 3,600-foot peak at Red Mountain, lush fairways, lakes, and streams.

Designer Notes

This Nevada course is simultaneously awe-inspiring and daunting. The golf course design’s strategic approach is evident on every fairway and the desert landscape is enlivened with water hazards on a third of the holes. The terrain is constantly undulating and full of canyons, ridges and ravines. The lush green fairways, small lakes and cascading streams contrast sharply with the rugged desert backdrop.
