A Closer Look, Las Sendas Golf Club is a monthly column written for UpClose Publications by Las Sendas Golf Club. In this column, you will get an in-depth look at upcoming entertainment, dining and golf events. Our brand is our mission—to reach out to the community as your pathway to fun, recreation and a pleasurable lifestyle.
LAS SENDAS GOLF CLUB IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
All of Las Sendas Golf Club facilities are open to the public.
“That comes as quite a surprise to some of our neighbors, because everyone usually assumes golf clubs are private and require memberships to use,” said Las Sendas Food and Beverage Director Dennis Shaw.
“But it’s not so at Las Sendas,” he continued. “Everyone is welcome to visit our restaurant at The Patio and The Grille for a fantastic chef-prepared dinner, as well as Family Night Specials. Right now, we are offering a Buy One Entrée, Get One Free (of equal or lesser value) on Mondays and Tuesdays,” Dennis further stated. “Or enjoy a casual drink and appetizers, or a burger at our famous Happy Hour in The Grille’s newly expanded sports bar area.”
In addition, Las Sendas has the most fantastic wedding venue in the area. The Vistas Pavilion offers spectacular views of the mountains and city lights. “Our staff can provide indoor and outside settings and menus for any type of event. From a buffet reception, to full plated dinners, we can provide all the little niceties that brides love, like a private dressing room with champagne. We also host many corporate holiday events and family gatherings, as well as smaller dinner parties in our private dining room,” said Dennis.
“Our golf course is open to the public. Local residents and visitors are welcome to give it a try. Right now, summer tee times are incredibly low, starting at only $19, including a shared cart and driving range warm up.
Also, score great deals in our golf shop. We will meet or beat any price on golf equipment.”
Las Sendas invites its neighbors to come visit and experience their extraordinary restaurants and world-class golf.
Las Sendas Golf Club is located on the mountainside at 7555 E. Eagle Crest Drive, in the Las Sendas community. For more information or for reservations, visit lassendas.com, or call (480) 396-4000. The Patio also can be booked through OpenTable.
