“A Special Place”

Wolf Creek Golf Club

3/4 found this review helpful

No need to add to anything the previous reviewers have stated, because words do not really do much justice to the jaw dropping landscapes you will be provided with in playing this course. On a recent mega golf trip to the USA, I played WC in early June and expected it to be in so-so condition, especially as rounds at Lake Las Vegas were slightly disappointing (with exception of back 9 at The Falls - another triumph). I was most surprised and impressed at the WC course and the meandering network of creeks is certainly a nice touch which provides a bit of a relief from the heat. Yes, you will feel the desert conditions if you come in Summer (as I fully expected)! I hear Mesquite is developing as a golfing destination and why not with such beautiful surrounding landscapes and a non-Vegas feel to it.

Drink lots of water, lots of sunscreen, bring a digital camera (suggest learning to play one handed beforehand in order to ensure you finish your round on a timely basis - I took at least 50 photos) and make sure you don´t overcommit on the choice of tees. The starter informed me that John Daly had a very rough time when playing the back tees, mainly due to the tight landing areas and the local rules of not being able to chase your ball if it goes into the desert more than a clublength! I didn´t have time to go for a swim in the lake to see how many of his clubs ended up in there as well!!

The only exception to this is the downhill par 3, which I suggest having a go at from the Blue tees, even for the thrill of hitting downhill to a postage stamp sized green with a long iron and the wind going nuts from all directions!!

The staff here are unbelievably professional (I went to Palm Springs after this for a trip with some mates and the WC staff far surpass the staff at the PGA West complex) and make your stay very welcome. I forget his name but one of the guys actually retired up here after playing it once and lives at one of the first houses outside the front entrance - smart guy!

I´ll be back.

“Incredible Course”

My first glimpse of the Wolf Creek experience was walking into the beautiful clubhouse. Leather and wood everywhere. Incredibly helpful staff. We had a 10:30 tee time so we got there a little early for breakfast. We were a party of 16 and they got all of our food and drink orders in a very timely matter and the quality was excellent.

And now for the course. This is easily the most visually stunning golf course I have ever seen. From the first tee to the green at 18 this course is beautiful to behold. On some of the tee boxes (almost all of which are elevated) you can't help but just stand there and soak it all in. But please be forewarned. It is imperative that you use realistic tee boxes. Wolf Creek has a choice of 5 seperate tee boxes on each hole. We played the Masters (which are the middle tees) which played at about 5700 yards and this course was still incredibly hard. The scorecard will tell you what tees you should be playing according to your handicap.

My only gripe about the entire experience is that I never once saw a drink cart and it was 119 degrees on the course the day I played. I know the prices are better in summer but you would be wise to wait until after summer to play this course as it gets scorching hot.

After our round was done we went back to the clubhouse. As soon as we parked our carts there were people there to clean our clubs and unpack our cart. Inside the clubhouse we were once again treated to VIP treatment by the wonderful staff.

If you happen to be going on a golf vacation I highly recommend this course. We went as a group of 16 and most of us only see each other once or twice a year and to our surprise there was a course photographer on hand and she took a picture of all of us together on the first tee and by the time we go to the turn she had the pic on a plaque along with a picture of one of the holes and a map of the golf course mounted along with it. It cost $25 which seemed very reasonable considering the overall great experience.

To sum it all up you have to check this place out for yourself. Pictures and words don't do it justice.

“Great Golf Course”

Wolf Creek Golf Club

5/5 found this review helpful

Seven of my buddies and I recently visited Mesquite, Nevada on a 3 day golf vacation. This was our second time to play Wolf Creek at Paradise Canyon. It was even better than the first time. This is an awesome golf course with unbelievable views. It was in immaculant shape as usual. It is NOT an easy course, so don't expect to shoot your all-time low score there. We played 36 holes on the 18th of May, It was somewhere around 103 degrees, but we were use to that. The clubhouse is excellent, as well as, the proshop. We will definitely return, but probably earlier in the year next time. There was plenty of water to drink on the course, but as one of the other writers stated, the cartgirl never left her shady spot so we only saw her the one time. All in all, fantastic experience,,,

“great course, but..”

Played Wolf Creek on 17 May 2006. I had set the reservation on the 16th, and phone service was cheerful and helpful. The course itself was spectacular! Beautiful views, and the course was in great shape. Two complaints: first, we teed off around 12:40 PM and didnt complete our round until 6:10 PM. That's way too long for a round on this course. Compouding the problem was the fact that the drink carts stayed parked at the 5th hole snack bar, and some of the water jugs were empty (did I mention it was 109 degrees)?

Without a doubt one of the best courses you'll ever play. The views were incredible, the course was in great shape, and one of the best golf experiences I've ever had. The greens looked a bit damaged but rolled fairly true. I'm always amazed how few people repair their ball marks!
Amazing elevation changes, every shot is a "thinker".
Stray into the rough and expect some punishment.
If ever there was a course to play the right tees...this is the one. It was quite a jump from the whites(5800 yards) to the blues(6400+). The biggest thing to consider on the longer tees is can you make the fairway? Many from the back tees required a 210-240 yard carry to safety..only the long need apply.

Forget the black tees unless you are on tour.

I've seen many reviews say this course is too tricked up...I don't believe that to be true. It's challenging but fair, but I remind you..play the right tees for your game(this is not the course to let egos misguide you).
My only complaint is the yardage markers seemed far & few between and why, oh why, does this course NOT have GPS equipped carts??

A MUST PLAY!!
