The course was good considering all of the flooding. I have played the course every year when I come to Ruidoso

Play interrupted by rain storm.

This is a prime golf course. I have played it more than a dozen times. Not cheap. So getting a bargain through golf now is recommended.

Overall it was a nice course. Friendly staff and pace of play was excellent. Only thing was holes 5 and 6 that were under weather related repairs. But besides that would definitely play there again when visiting. Great experience. Two thumbs up

Great Course in the Pines

Great course, friendly staff, good prices, and all around fun experience. The flooding did cause some damage, but it’s slight and doesn’t affect the play almost at all. The staff did a really good job working around it.

Misleading, but ok

Don't trust the pictures. Fairways are too dry and are basically all dead grass. You can tell rain is an issue there. Greens are great, and tee boxes are fine. For $70-$80, the condition of the course was no where near worth the money, but there's plenty of potential. Hope it gets back to the way it looks in the pictures... but it's got a long way to go.

Course was fun and Challenging

Lots of wild horses and elk on the course, lots of dry areas of vegetation due to lack of moisture, but the course itself was fun, exciting and challenging, especially for a beginner

Greens are in good shape.

Got stuck behind a group of 4 beginners playing out of a single bag…someone called the clubhouse and straightened the extremely slow play situation.

Greens were in great shape for the time of year and lack of rain. Always like playing here with my boys as we always have a good time for reasonable green fees.
