Beautiful mountain course

This course is challenging due to being on a mountain. Wildlife is abundant. Great time every time we play here.

Great 9 holes

This course in 9 hole, but you play twice for 18 with different tee and hole locations. The course is cart path only. The fairways at good and the greens are very good. You will do a lot of walking up and down hills.

Fun little course

Great elevation changes! Fun little course. The mountain looked very dry while we were there so no surprise that the course reflected that too. But green enough to play on. Greens were not in very good shape at all but good enough to play on, especially with the awesome overall beauty of the course and surroundings. Lots of wildlife on the course which was a plus!

Good scenery, meh course

If you value a nice backdrop when you play golf this is your place. The fairways were fine, greens were horrific. Bumpy, dirt, grass slightly shorter than fairway grass. People working were great but this course is not worth the $80 I spent on a Saturday morning. First and last time at this course.

Mountain too fun!

This was an unexpected Gem. We were a little leary of it being 9 holes but they had 2 flags on each green for each time you hit to the hole. It was a blast and we will be back again next time we are in Ruidoso
