In Mesquite, 82 mi NE of Las Vegas.
Wolf Creek, NV
Wolf Creek Golf Club is home to a dramatic and many would say unique championship golf course that ranks with some of the best in Nevada. Set against a stunning desert landscape, with exciting elevation changes and emerald green fairways meandering through red rock canyons, Wolf Creek is a rare gem.
Routed through natural hills and canyons, Dennis Rider's desert-style layout has been described as visionary by some, and eccentric by others. What's not in doubt is the dramatic sculpting of this ever-popular course, and the demanding test it places on your all-round game. A must play if you are in the area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Non-metal spike facility. Golf cart compulsory.

Located alongside the Nevada-Arizona state line, an hour's drive northeast of Las Vegas, the small city of Mesquite is home to several casino resorts and golf courses. Originally established in the 1880s by Mormon pioneers, the city is also home to a growing retirement community.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises.
