The Angel Fire Resort Golf and Country Club is recognized as one of the Southwest’s best 18-hole, par-72 courses available to the public as well as members and resort guests. The layout boasts a course rating of 71.2 and a high slope rating of 137. Water comes into play on 16 holes. It is a unique course offers a challenge to the expert golfer but simultaneously gives pleasure to those less skilled.
The front nine meanders through unspoiled canyons of aspen, spruce, and pine, while the slightly shorter back nine plays through mountain meadows. The signature hole, #6, is a par-3 that features a vertical descent of two hundred feet from the tee to the green, 200 yards away. The hole is framed by groves of aspen and towering pines.
At almost 8,700 feet elevation, even on the warmest days the temperature rarely reaches 85 degrees. Many golfers leave the desert and come to Angel Fire seeking relief from the heat.
Affordable stay-and-play packages are available. For more information and tee times, call the pro shop at (505) 377-3055. For golf packages and lodging, please call (800) 633-7463.
