Yep, played all 27 holes...many times.
And the view from the UNM Championship course, looking down on the city...is hard to beat.
Twin Warriors also has fantastic views and a great course, albeit a bit more expensive...given that it's connected to the Hyatt-Regency (as is the less expensive Santa Ana).
Then there's Sandia, which has great views and being on the slopes of the Sandia's (plus the altitude)...allows for some really long drives.
Even Isleta is nice.
Halfway to Santa Fe on I-25, and a bit off the beaten trail, is another awesome value course...Cochiti Golf Club.
But the all-time best value I've EVER played...is Arroyo Del Oso (one of 3 city courses). When I first started playing it 15 years ago, it was $18 to walk and the greens were as nice & fast...as ANY resort/private course.
And then when you get up to the Santa Fe area, which is only an hour from Abq., there are some nationally ranked courses also.
All in all,
"The Land of Entrapment" (
the local name by some)...is a hidden jewel for golfers.
