Course Overview
The 27-hole complex is located a half-hour outside of Albuquerque and sits in the shadows of the Sandia Mountains. The routing works its way through foothills and out into open vistas, a glorious setting more resembling a national park than what you might expect from a golf course. Balls travel farther at 6,500 feet above sea level, hopefully far enough for players to cover the long, uphill carries and dodge the century-old juniper trees. Stunning views and a smart design? There’s a reason the course has continually ranked among the top courses in New Mexico since its 2000 opening.
