A Golfer’s Dream Destination: Why St. George is Perfect for Golf Lovers

by Kimette Hughes

  1. World-Class Courses in Stunning Settings

Southern Utah offers a unique blend of jaw-dropping desert landscapes and world-class golf courses. The Black Desert Resort, designed by Tom Weiskopf, is just one of the many premier courses in the region. Set in a lava field and boasting wide fairways and challenging layouts, it offers a golf experience unlike any other. The course is designed for both beauty and playability, with robotic fairway mowers and plenty of open space to enjoy the scenic views while you play. It's a golfer's haven, blending cutting-edge technology with the natural beauty of the desert. 

Whether you’re taking on the 7,371-yard par-71 layout at Black Desert or teeing off at one of the other top courses like Sand Hollow Resort, you’ll find that the golf here is challenging yet rewarding, with each course offering its own blend of elevation changes, red rock views, and meticulously kept greens.
