The mistake is equating Mesquite's casinos with its golf courses. Wolf Creek is as showstopping and original a course as you'll find anywhere.

A round of golf at a top notch resort of daily fee course will run you between $100 and $250, depending on the season; a comfy room in a full service resort commands $150 to $250 a night; and lava rock treatments, shopping sprees at Caesar's Palace and the other creature comforts can push the final tab well over four figures for a long weekend stay.
