NEVADA
MESQUITE/ST.GEORGE Wolf Creek Golf Club
With seven world-class golf courses offering a
variety of design options, Golf Mesquite Nevada
(www.golfmesquitenevada.com) gives players a wide
choice of courses to tackle when they travel to
Mesquite.
About an hour north of Las Vegas, Mesquite
is a golf paradise with four of the courses located
within about 10 minutes of each other (two others
are located in St. George, Utah, 45 minutes away
and the other is located in Coyote Springs, midway
between Las Vegas and Mesquite). Falcon Ridge
Golf Club, Oasis Golf Club (two 18-hole lay-
outs—Palmer and Canyons courses), Sand Hollow
Golf Club and Coral Canyon (in St. George) and
Coyote Springs give players enough golf choices to
keep them busy whether it’s an overnight stay or
a week-long golf vacation. Golf Mesquite Nevada
offers golf packages to fit any players’ needs and
can include dining, spa options, recreation op-
tions, accommodations and…of course…the golf.
Wolf Creek Golf Club (www.golfwolfcreek.
com) is Mesquite’s version of roller coaster golf.
The course, which reaches 6,939 yards from the
tips, winds over, around and through the hills of
Mesquite. “There is a definite uniqueness to Wolf
Creek,” says Joel Villanos, general manager. “The
playing conditions are great and this is one golf
course you can’t say …’I’ve played this hole some-
where else.’ ” With elevated tee boxes giving way to
lush green fairways far below, accuracy off the tee
is a must and driver isn’t always the club of choice.
Add in about 100 bunkers to the elevation changes
and you’ve got a course that will require players to
think their way around the course.
Whether you prefer endless video gaming op-
tions or good old-fashioned table games against
the house, you are in for a winning combination
at either the CasaBlanca or Virgin River Resort
Casinos (www.mesquitegaming.com). Both are
located in Mesquite, Nevada, just 75 miles east of
Las Vegas and only 40 miles west of St. George,
Utah. And both resorts truly represents what Las
Vegas used to be!
Visit our Race and Sportsbook and get ready
to rumble. Need a facial or full spa treatment?
We’ve got that too at the CasaBlanca Hotel and
Casino, and to top it off, it’s co-ed. Both you and
your partner can be pampered together in pure
luxury. In addition, enjoy a cold drink and some
desert sun at our 100,000-gallon swimming pool
