Pinon Hills Golf Course April 2018

Great weather day, very few players as high winds were expected, and the greens were in near perfect condition. Staff is always helpful and courteous. Carts are in very good condition as well as the fairway markers throughout the course. The Four Corners area is fortunate to have Pinon Hills Golf Course available year round. Always a treat to see the foxes run the course!

Hard to beat Pinon Hills

I am a local and I love Pinon Hills. It's hard to beat for the money. Playing in February the conditions aren't ideal, and with the lack of moisture this winter, things were pretty dried out and fast. But the layout is stunning and the value tremendous.

Winter golf, pinion hills golf course. Farmington, NM

First time to play golf in January here in Farmington, NM. If you have never played pinion hills, you will be surprised at the elevation changes and fun around the greens. We play three different tee boxes to change up the distance and look of the course. Will play again next week of the weather holds. Staff is the best!

A great test of golf

Must hit the ball on the correct level of the green to score low. Try moving up a tee box .

Great deal

This has been rated number one public course in NM in the past. It is a great place to play in the winter. Today the pace of play was slow so we couldn't finish our 18 holes. The marshall said there was a slow group of women ahead of us.

Pinon Hills golf course 2017 12 13

Outstanding, challenging course for amateur players. Elevation changes, a few water hazards and sandstone formations keep the game interesting and fun. Best bang for our buck around the four corners area of New Mexico. Played our round in 3.5 hours.
