A pair of Tom Fazio-designed golf courses are currently closed and according to reports, the property might have been sold.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal said Primm Valley Golf Club, which houses a pair of courses, was sold recently. According to the story, “an employee with the club confirmed the closure and sale in an email response but did not provide additional details.”
Although the course is less than an hour from Las Vegas, it’s in California, just outside the town of Primm, Nevada. It has breathtaking views of the Mojave National Preserve and Clark Mountain, and the courses opened to much fanfare in 1998.

The town has not grown as previously anticipated, however, and members of the HOA in the surrounding neighborhood staved off a potential investor who wanted to turn the courses into housing a few years ago.
According to the story at the Review-Journal:
A note on the homepage of the course’s website says “Primm Valley Golf Club is closed for the foreseeable future. Please check back for updates.”
According to the club’s website, it is home to two 18-hole courses that were designed by golf architect Tom Fazio, and the club also has a 22-acre practice facility with a driving range and practice putting greens.
The future of Primm remains a question mark as the area’s mall is currently vacant; however, Primm still has its three big hotels with casinos — Buffalo Bill’s, Whiskey Pete’s and the Primm Valley Resort and Casino — all of which are managed by Affinity Gaming.
Primm Valley’s two courses did not crack the top of the Golfweek’s Best ratings for best courses in California. Here’s a look at the list.
