Welcome to Mesquite!
If you are looking to relocate, looking for a vacation getaway, or just surfing the web to visit new places – we hope you enjoy our site and that you are enticed to visit us.
Mesquite is conveniently situated on Interstate 15 just an hour from the neon and glitz of Las Vegas, and 36 miles from St. George, Utah. Mesquite has something to offer for all ages. We have seven challenging golf courses, softball/baseball fields, tennis courts, soccer fields, nearby ATV trails, four casinos, nightly entertainment, luxurious spas, a Senior Center and a Recreation Center that boasts of both an indoor and outdoor pool as well as racquetball courts, basketball courts and organized fitness programs.
Mesquite is exactly the place you’re looking for – a desert paradise. We have unsurpassed vistas of majestic mountains all round, over 300 days of warm sunshine, no snow to shovel, and gorgeous sunsets. A 650 acre Regional Park is currently in the planning stages and will provide a variety of recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike including a permanent home for the Long Drivers of America Championship.
We have a state of the art hospital that opened its doors in 2004, a Super Walmart, both a six and eight plex theater complex, restaurants, commercial and retail outlets under construction and even an auto mall. As far as business opportunities – Mesquite has created a Technology and Commerce Center which includes tenants such as Do It Best Corporation, a 550,000 hardware distribution facility employing over 65 people; Pride Contractors; and a separate Do It Best Lumber facility. Future tenants of the Technology and Commerce Center include Ahern Rentals and Cashman Equipment Company.
Did I mention housing? The nationally known developer Pulte/Del Webb is constructing over 5,400 new homes amidst colorful wildflower and cactus-clad desert arroyos in our "Sun City at Mesquite" and “Anthem at Mesquite.” Additional housing developments include Canyon Crest, Calais, Mesquite Vistas and Vista Del Monte. It is projected that within the next 7-10 years Mesquite will have an excess of 13,000 homes constructed. As we approach that magical 20,000 population mark, the City hopes to continue managing this growth with skill, professionalism and grace.
We would love to have you – whether to visit for a day or to stay for a lifetime - come soak in the Mesquite experience – I think you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for.

Mayor of Mesquite
