Mojave Resort Golf Club is the only course on the Nevada side at Laughlin: a flat, links-style Schmidt-Curley layout from 1997 beside the Avi Resort & Casino, about 27 minutes south of the Laughlin-Bullhead City Bridge. Fees are by phone at 702-535-4653, Avi and KOA guests get unstated discounts, and its tee sheet runs on Pacific time.
That last point is what trips up visitors staying in Arizona. This guide covers getting a rate, the Avi connection, the course and the clock.

Mojave Resort Golf Club rates
Mojave Resort does not publish green fees. When read on October 27, 2026, both the Avi and the club sites said to call 702-535-4653 for rates, and no current figure was found elsewhere. GolfNow lists the cart as included in the green fee, and rental clubs are available. The season note is simple: winter, January to March, is peak, and summer rates drop sharply because of the heat.
The ways to bring the price down are all linked to where you sleep:
- Avi Resort guests: the Avi's site says guests get reduced rates at the course. No amount is given.
- Avi KOA guests: the KOA page says KOA guests get discounted green fees. No amount is given.
- Stay and Play: the club names the Avi its preferred partner and also lists Tropicana, Edgewater, the Aquarius and Golden Nugget Laughlin as hotel partners, without package prices.
Ask for a room-and-golf rate when you book the room, and ask the shop what the guest rate is when you book the tee time. Our Laughlin golf packages guide compares the casino deals, and Laughlin golf rates puts the other courses' fees side by side.
The Avi link
The Fort Mojave Indian Tribe owns the Avi Resort & Casino, Mojave Resort next door, and Huukan Golf Club in Fort Mohave. From the Avi the first tee is about three minutes away.
| Avi Resort & Casino | Avi KOA | |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Riverfront casino resort | RV park, about 260 full-hookup sites |
| Golf perk | "Reduced rates" at Mojave Resort (amount not given) | "Discounted green fees" (amount not given) |
| Price seen | Travelocity from $52.49 before tax, a Monday in February 2026 | Monthly from $786; weekly about $247 to $281 |
| Extras | No resort fee for pools, beach, boat launch or fitness center; free parking | Shuttle to the Avi; use of its beach, pool and fitness center |
| Watch-outs | 21+ to book; no pets; strip is 15 to 20 minutes north | KOA golf discount not read on a live page |
The Avi has six dining options, a movie theater and group sales for 20 or more rooms a night. The Avi KOA is across the street and suits RV golfers who want a course next door and a published monthly price. Our Bullhead City RV resorts guide compares it with the Arizona-side parks.
The course
Mojave Resort sits on the Colorado River floodplain south of the casino strip. It is flat, with wide fairways, wind-shaped dunes and a desert mountain backdrop; the wind is the main defence. Fairways are bermuda. The par-3 17th carries a $100,000 hole-in-one prize offer, according to Bullhead City's golf page.
| Tee | Yards | Rating / slope |
|---|---|---|
| Black | 6,939 | 73.6 / 136 (men) |
| Black/Yellow | 6,677 | 72.5 / 132 (men) |
| Yellow | 6,435 | 70.6 / 128 (men) |
| Yellow/White | 6,186 | 69.7 / 124 (men) |
| White | 5,959 | 68.9 / 121 (men) |
| Green | 5,520 | 72.2 / 124 (women) |
Ratings from GolfPass. The slope of 136 from the Black tees is the second-highest near Laughlin, behind Laughlin Ranch. Practice facilities include a driving range, a chipping and pitching area, a putting green and a teaching pro; GolfLink lists 30 range tees. See the Mojave Resort course guide.
Dress rules, per GolfNow: collared shirt required, denim discouraged, no tank tops or cut-offs, and soft spikes only.
The Nevada clock
Mojave Resort's tee sheet runs on Pacific time. Bullhead City, Fort Mohave and the other Arizona towns keep Arizona time with no daylight saving, so from November 1, 2026 to March 14, 2027 Arizona is one hour ahead.
- Staying on Casino Drive or at the Avi: no adjustment.
- Staying in Bullhead City or Fort Mohave: a 9:00 tee time at Mojave Resort is 10:00 on your Arizona clock. You gain an hour.
- Playing Mojave Resort and Huukan on the same trip: they share an operator and booking system, but not a clock. Huukan is on Arizona time.
From March 14, 2027 both sides match again. Our Laughlin time zone guide covers every course.
Overseed and season
The Avi's golf page gave the 2026 overseed as September 8 to October 8; the Arizona Golf Association schedule listed a reopening on October 9. Late October onward is the safe window. November brings mid-70s highs, and January to March is peak season. In summer, highs reach about 110F in July, so play at first light. See Laughlin golf overseed.
Getting there and pairing it
Mojave Resort is about 15.7 miles from the Laughlin-Bullhead City Bridge, south via Casino Drive and Needles Highway to Aha Macav Parkway. From the Casino Drive hotels it is about 26 to 28 minutes; from Snowbird RV Park in Fort Mohave about 12; the Veterans Memorial Bridge on Aztec Road links Fort Mohave with the Avi area.
Huukan, the former Desert Lakes, is about 15 minutes away across the river and run by the same operator. It is a gentler, tree-lined course with a slope of 115. See the Huukan course guide and our Huukan Golf Club guide. For a bigger contrast, pair Mojave Resort Golf Club's open ground with Laughlin Ranch's hills; our Laughlin Ranch Golf Club guide has those rates.
Mojave Resort vs Laughlin Ranch
| Mojave Resort | Laughlin Ranch | |
|---|---|---|
| State and clock | Nevada, Pacific time | Arizona, Arizona time |
| Opened, designer | 1997, Schmidt and Curley | 2005, David Druzisky |
| Back tees | 6,939 yds, slope 136 | 7,155 yds, slope 143 |
| Terrain | Flat floodplain, wind | Hilly foothills, forced carries |
| Fees | Not published; call | $137 to $169 winter and spring (2027 table) |
| Drive from the bridge | 27 min | 9 min |
The two make a natural pair because they play so differently. Mojave Resort Golf Club is defended mainly by the wind; Laughlin Ranch by forced carries over desert washes and big elevation changes.
Who Mojave Resort Golf Club suits
- Avi guests and KOA campers: the course is next door, with a guest discount to ask about.
- Mid handicaps: wide fairways and flat ground, with the Yellow tees at 6,435 yards a sensible choice.
- Snowbirds in Fort Mohave: about 12 minutes from Snowbird RV Park, with an hour gained on the clock in winter.
- Golfers on a budget: call first, because without a published rate you cannot compare it with El Rio or the Havasu twilight rates in advance.
