Laughlin Ranch Golf Club is the best and most expensive course near Laughlin: a hilly 2005 David Druzisky design in Bullhead City, nine minutes from the Laughlin-Bullhead City Bridge. Non-residents pay $137 to $169 with cart in winter and spring on the 2027 rate table, locals much less. Six casinos sell stay-and-play packages, and the tee sheet keeps Arizona time.
This guide to Laughlin Ranch Golf Club sets out every rate band, how the casino packages work, the booking rules and what to expect from the course itself.

Laughlin Ranch Golf Club rates by season
The rates page, read October 27, 2026, is headed "2026 Golf Rates" but the table is labelled 2027. These are walk-up rates with the mandatory cart; tax is extra, and dynamic pricing can go higher.
| Dates (2027 table) | Mon to Thu | Fri to Sun |
|---|---|---|
| Nov 20 to Jan 31 | $137 | $147 |
| Feb 1 to 21 | $147 | $157 |
| Feb 22 to Apr 11 | $159 | $169 |
| Apr 12 to May 23 | $150 | $162 |
| May 24 to Jun 20 | $104 | $124 |
| Jun 21 to Jul 11 | $90 | $97 |
| Jul 12 to Sep 20 | $80 | $87 |
| Sep 21 to Nov 19 | $159 | $169 |
Local residents pay $95 to $105 in winter and peak and $50 to $60 in midsummer. An earlier 2026 table, seen in a search snapshot, showed $132 Monday to Thursday and $142 Friday to Sunday for November 20 to February 5, with locals at $85 and $90. Which table applies to this winter is not certain, so check when you book. No twilight rate is published.
Two things stand out. First, the September 21 to November 19 band is the top price: the fresh post-overseed course costs as much as March. Second, a local ZIP code saves about $50 a round, so snowbirds with a winter address nearby should ask whether it qualifies. The club also mentions memberships and a Locals Pass, without published terms. Our Laughlin golf rates guide compares every course.
The layout
Laughlin Ranch sits in the foothills east of Bullhead City. It is a desert course with big elevation changes, arroyos and wide fairways, with forced carries over desert washes and views of the Colorado River and the mountains. It is the hardest test in the area.
| Tee | Yards | Men: rating / slope | Women: rating / slope |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gold | 7,155 | 73.6 / 143 | n/a |
| Zinc | 6,565 | 71.4 / 137 | n/a |
| Silver | 6,091 | 69.1 / 129 | 75.1 / 138 |
| Combo | 5,428 | n/a | 71.2 / 130 |
| Copper | 4,985 | 64.0 / 115 | 68.8 / 120 |
Ratings from GolfPass; the Combo rating is listed without gender there. GolfPass Players' Choice 2025 named it the No. 2 public course in Arizona, per a club release, and Golfweek put it No. 14 on its Best Courses You Can Play in Arizona list in 2019. See the Laughlin Ranch course guide.
The clubhouse has the SLATE restaurant, a spa, fitness center, pool and hot tubs. A grass driving range with chipping, bunker and putting areas and teaching professionals is on site.

Our Laughlin golf packages guide covers the other casino deals.
Booking and course rules
Book online through the club site, its Chronogolf page or the club app; GolfNow and TeeOff also list it. The booking window is not published. Cancel at least 24 hours ahead or pay 50%, and no-shows are charged in full. The app sends Daily Deals text alerts and runs a tee-time waitlist, worth joining in peak season.
Dress is a collared shirt, no denim and soft spikes, with tennis shoes allowed. No outside food or drink is allowed. Our Laughlin tee times guide covers booking at the other courses.
The clock and the overseed
The course is in Arizona, so from November 1, 2026 to March 14, 2027 its tee sheet is one hour ahead of the Laughlin casinos. Leave an hour earlier by your hotel clock. See the Laughlin time zone guide.
It overseeds each fall. In 2024 it closed September 9 to 27 and reopened with a tournament on September 29. The 2026 dates were not found, but the rate band starting September 21 suggests it reopens by late September.
Who Laughlin Ranch Golf Club suits
- A buddies group with one splurge round: book it through a casino package and play it on a weekday to save $10 to $12 a head on the winter and spring rates.
- Low and mid handicaps: the Zinc and Gold tees are the strongest test on the river.
- Higher handicaps: play Silver or Copper. The carts help on the hills, but the forced carries over washes remain.
- Snowbirds: ask about the local ZIP rate and the Locals Pass before paying the visitor rate every week. Our Bullhead City golf guide covers the other courses near it.
- Summer visitors: the cheapest band, $80 to $87 from July 12 to September 20, comes with highs over 100F, so book the first tee time.
Ownership notes
Ownership has changed hands several times: IMH Financial in 2012, the Mariner family group in 2017, then Glass Mountain Farms LLC from October 1, 2020. Troon managed it from August 2018; whether Troon still manages it in 2026 was not confirmed. In 2017 the owners upgraded the clubhouse HVAC and plumbing, the carts and the water supply.
Pairing Laughlin Ranch with other courses
Most trips pair Laughlin Ranch Golf Club with Mojave Resort, the flat, windy Nevada-side course by the Avi, which is about 25 minutes from Laughlin Ranch by road. The contrast is real: hills and carries one day, wind and open ground the next. See the Mojave Resort course guide and our list of the best golf courses in Laughlin.
