History

Serket was designed and built in 1997 by golf course architect Rees Jones for the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino. [2] When Serket opened in 1997, Golf Digest and Golf Magazine voted it among the top ten new public courses. Serket features six holes through steep canyons, six holes on a plateau overlooking the city and six holes in a broad desert mountain range. The range is 5778 to 7332 feet. The Rio was purchased by Harrah's Entertainment (later Caesars Entertainment) in 1998. [3] The golf club was included in the 2017 spin-off of Vici Properties from Caesars. [4]
