Mojave Resort Golf Club Review

About Mojave Resort Golf Club

Designed by the team of Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley, Mojave Resort Golf Club opened in 1997 on the banks of the Colorado River adjacent to the Avi Resort & Casino. The 18-hole, par-72 layout stretches 6,939 yards from the tips with a course rating of 73.2 and a slope of 126. The riverside setting distinguishes it sharply from typical Mojave desert layouts — lush riparian vegetation, water features, and Colorado River views frame many holes. Golf Digest has awarded the course a four-star rating. The facility operates on a seasonal schedule, closing for overseeding in early fall and restricting summer hours during peak heat.

Reviews of Mojave Resort Golf Club

Mojave Resort Golf Club offers a genuinely different visual experience from the standard Southern Nevada desert course — the Colorado River corridor setting, Schmidt & Curley design craft, and four-star Golf Digest recognition make it worth the roughly 90-minute drive. The challenge is planning around the seasonal schedule: the course closes for overseeding each fall and shifts to restricted early-morning hours in summer.

Is Mojave Resort Golf Club Worth Playing?

Best suited for golfers who want to combine a round with Laughlin's casino scene or a Colorado River trip. The riverside setting appeals to players tired of pure desert layouts. Visit October through May for full hours and optimal temperatures; summer rounds are feasible but must start early.
