Conestoga Golf Club, Mesquite

Very nice layout. Beautiful scenery. Large vast property with unique and exciting golf holes. It could have been even better. It is very expensive and for the price you would have thought they would have cut the greens and changed the pins. You could tell that we were playing yesterday's pins and the greens had not been cut. Otherwise 10 out 10.... lets call it an 7 or 8 considering the price.

Conestoga has both the good fortune and the misfortune of being in the same town as Wolf Creek. The misfortune is that many people will miss Conestoga altogether since Wolf Creek has been seen by so many and looks like it may literally be a video game. It is otherworldly in so many ways. As a result, many that come to the Mesquite area will make a trip there to play Wolf Creek and return to wherever they came from. On the other hand, others will want to take advantage of the travel to Mesquite and wander over to Conestoga. For those who miss it....let me just say...you REALLY missed it. For those who found the opportunity to play a second round of golf and made it to Conestoga, they made out like a bandit. Conestoga is an absolute gem of a golf course. I made the trip to the area to play Wolf Creek since it was on my bucket list. But I wanted to play another round and chose to mozy over to Conestoga. What an absolute delight. The course plays in a similar setting as Wolf Creek but feels completely different. Where Wolf Creek is wild and loud, Conestoga is smooth and refined, but not tame. It's like going from the roller coaster to the log rides. Sure, the coaster makes you scream and takes your breath away in other places. But then the log ride allows you to sit back a little and enjoy the ride a little more. But then you get that plunge that takes you to a refreshing spray of water. The differences between Wolf Creek and Conestoga are a bit like that. You'll never forget Wolf Creek. But Conestoga will take you on a refreshing, thrilling, but less intense ride that is just enjoyable, but in a completely different way. If you have the ability to play with a local, take advantage. Some local knowledge of the course will really come in handy. If you're in the area, make sure you don't miss one of the best rides in the park.

This course was in great shape and was a fun round to play. Great cart service, but don't drive off-road...they didn't appreciate that when I went to grab a lost ball.

This is a really wonderful golf course. They have a terrific practice facility, with a very large range, a large chipping area and a large putting green. The course is in truly immaculate condition, as green and lush as any course I’ve seen in decades of golf. And, the course is challenging with lots of terrain changes, lots of elevation changes, and many interesting holes. It is just a terrific golfing experience.

Club house with sports bar. Comfortable seating. A bit understaffed Sunday night. Good, friendly service.
