About CasaBlanca Golf Club
CasaBlanca is the resort course of the CasaBlanca Resort & Casino in Mesquite. Cal Olson's par-72, 7,011-yard layout (72.5 rating / 130 slope) winds in and out of the Virgin River basin, with five tee sets and wetland and river features giving each hole its own character.
History
CasaBlanca Golf Club — History
CasaBlanca Golf Club opened in 1996 -- a Cal Olson design etched into the wetlands of the Mesquite Valley along the Virgin River basin. It is the long-running home of the annual Nevada Open.
Design
CasaBlanca Golf Club — Design
Cal Olson routed CasaBlanca through the river-basin wetlands -- water and riparian terrain shape the holes, a contrast to dry desert-target golf.

The Round
The Journey at CasaBlanca Golf Club
I.
The Opening
The club's own tour calls the 1st a relatively easy start, a straight, slightly downhill par 4 to an open green. The par-5 2nd doglegs right with a pond beside the green, and the short par-4 3rd lets long hitters challenge the water. The Virgin River and its wetlands sit left of the par-3 4th green. Then comes the 5th, the No. 1 handicap, a long par 4 with water along the entire left side, followed by the three-shot par-5 6th.
II.
The Middle
The 425-yard 7th, No. 3 on the card, hides bunkers right of the landing area while water runs up the right and wraps behind the green. The par-3 8th has a waterfall lake and bunkers right of a large, undulating green, and the 414-yard 9th aims at the CasaBlanca sign before an uphill second. The 10th and 11th both have out of bounds left and a lake down the right, and the 12th, the No. 2 handicap, adds desert left and a green sloping back to front.
III.
The Finish
The 13th is the short par 4 of the back nine and the No. 18 handicap, a carry over desert or a go at a two-level green. The par-3 14th is bunkered both sides, and only the longest hitters reach the par-5 15th in two, with water right on the second. The 16th, the shortest hole, is a forced carry over a pond and stream. The tour calls the 17th, with waste areas crossing the fairway, the hardest hole, and the 18th ends at a green ringed by bunkers.
How to Play It
CasaBlanca Golf Club — Playing Strategy
Beginner / High Handicap
The club's tour mentions water on 11 holes, so note the drop areas the club card provides on the 3rd, 8th and 16th before a ball goes in. Desert is played as a lateral hazard and carts must stay out of it. The card lists five tee sets, Black through Red, and asks groups to keep pace at about 15 minutes a hole.
Intermediate / Mid Handicap
The 3rd and 13th are the risk-reward par 4s, and at the 3rd the club's tour calls an iron for position the smart shot. On the 6th the best approach comes from the left side. At the 5th, the No. 1 handicap, water runs the length of the left side, and the 12th's green slopes back to front, so stay below the hole.
Advanced / Low Handicap
The two hardest holes on the card, the 5th and 12th, are long par 4s. The scoring chances are the 2nd, reachable in two if the approach avoids the pond right of the green, and the 15th, where the second must stay clear of water and bunkers on the right. The 7th deserves a look before teeing off: hidden bunkers right, water wrapping behind the green.
