No expense is spared in providing golfers at the exclusive Summit Club in Las Vegas a tasty and luxurious break from their round. Iona Stephen visits to see what it's halfway house experience is really like.
Well done Iona! Really enjoy this halfway house series! Very unique idea! Love me a good halfway house but this one is next level! Course is immaculate too!
I mean this club is beautiful, but builiding a golf course in a desert is a stupid idea, because of the water wasted. And then making it only accesible to 200people is criminal. Classic murica.
@@tchombre1992 But not a lot of water in the West. Their marketing materials show levels of Lake Mead which are likely only a memory for anyone alive today.
Golf courses in Vegas have to use entirely recycled grey water. They’ve got probably the best water recycling system of any city in the country, so these golf courses aren’t actually depleting the fresh water supply. Vast majority of Lake Mead’s water is taken by California.
Halfway house means something completely different in Canada. We would call this the field bar. A halfway house is an institute for people with criminal backgrounds or drug abuse tendencies to learn the necessary skills to re-integrate into society and better support and care for themselves.
Halfway house is used in the same way here in the US, I’ve heard it used in the golf context before but it’s not a common thing. Probably because most courses have the turn back at the club house so there is no need for this type of facility. 🤷🏻♂️
Halfway houses are the same thing in America, but if you're directly speaking towards golf you'll know that someone is not talking about a place for addicts but rather where you get your snacks and drinks when you make the turn. It can be called a halfway Hut Etc...
