Golf In New Mexico
"Golf in New Mexico isn't just golf. It is a spiritual experience that blends history and atmosphere, landscapes and legend. There's no need to go searching for cultural flavor here. It's everywhere- behind every bit of sagebrush and down every fairway... it is a spiritual journey."
The Santa Fe area offers many excellent golf courses from which to choose. Whether golfing alone, in small groups or in a large tournament, we make your golfing experience a breeze! Here are just a few of the courses available.
PUEBLO DE COCHITI GOLF COURSE
Lying amid the foothills of the Jemez Mountains sits Pueblo de Cochiti Golf Course. Located approximately 50 minutes north of Albuquerque and 40 minutes southwest of Santa Fe, Pueblo de Cochiti Golf Course offers one of the most challenging yet fair tests of golf in the country. Ranked by Golf Digest as one of America's Top 75 Affordable Courses, this Robert Trent Jones Jr. design is truly a gem in the high desert. Blessed with breathtaking views and unhampered by noise and bustle of city life, Pueblo de Cochiti Golf Course provides the opportunity to "get away from it all" and enjoy mountain golf at its best.
GOLF AT BLACK MESA GOLF CLUB
Black Mesa Golf Club, designed by architect Baxter Spann, "could very well turn out to be the finest course, public or private, in the state," according to Golf Digest. Located on the Santa Clara Pueblo a half-hour north of Santa Fe, the course plays through dramatic sandstone ridges with Black Mesa visible from several locations. Offering a wide variety of holes, each with its own memorable features, the site showcases distinctive bunkering, native arroyos as hazards, and green contouring in keeping with the scale of the natural landforms.
PAA-KO RIDGE GOLF COURSE
On the eastern slopes of the Sandia Mountains between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, this world-class course is unlike any other in New Mexico. Borrowing its name from the Anasazi Pueblo Indian ruins nearby, Paa-Ko’s 6500’ elevation, undulating mountainous terrain, monumental rock outcropping, and dense Pinon and ponderosa Pine forests make it unique among New Mexico’s many fine courses and a premier position among golf courses of the Southwest.
SANTA ANA GOLF COURSE
Located on the Santa Ana Reservation, this course is rated by The New York Times as #3 in the nation for links courses. Santa Ana Golf Club is a 27-hole championship course with 5 sets of tees on every hole. Native grasses, subtle mounding and eight crystal-blue lakes dotted around the course will inspire and challenge you. North of Albuquerque and woven into the desert along the Rio Grande, the course is surrounded by the Jemez Mountains, the Sangre de Cristos and the Sandias. Full practice facilities, professional instruction, golf carts with Parview GPS, and impeccable service round out the Santa Ana Golf Club experience.
