St. George, Utah

Southern Utah's geology does things no architect could invent. Red sandstone cliffs, ancient lava fields, and coral pink dunes frame a cluster of world-ranked public courses within 20 miles of downtown. Zion National Park is 45 minutes away and Las Vegas is 90 minutes south, with Wolf Creek in Mesquite a natural stop en route.
