A truly remarkable Ruidoso golf course is The Links at Sierra Blanca. Located inside the Village of Ruidoso it plays like a true links is supposed to play. Long, hilly fairways are both punishing and forgiving at the same time. You may be able to play an errant ball, but you can automatically add a stroke or two to your card. However, if you hit them true you will be rewarded at the end of the round as this course favors those who practice accuracy. One hole after another offers a different perspective on the game, each presenting a unique challenge and a different view of the spectacular scenery that is Ruidoso. Water and sand come into play on many holes, but the lush fairways and smooth well manicured greens make ball striking a special event. The Links also has a fully stocked pro shop and a great little snack shop that serves up arguably the best hot dog in Ruidoso.
For those who prefer a shorter course the Cree Meadows Country Club is the ticket. Also located in the Village and just seconds from Midtown Ruidoso, this golf course is the local men's league's favorite. Although the course is not as long as the others, it can still be very challenging for the unwary. Though the out-of-bound's markers loom perilously close on many fairways, a good shot always pays off in spades. The greens are large and tricky and usually break away from the Mountain ... giving you a good excuse to take in the view! The 19th hole at this public invited Ruidoso country club serves great fare and has a wonderful and cozy pub feel. Of course, after the round, Ruidoso itself offers a nightlife second to none. Las Vegas-style gaming at three Ruidoso area casinos, live music, world-class concerts, live theater, pubs, western style saloons, wonderful restaurants and Mountain Cool evenings
People from all across the country love this course,
from New York stock brokers, Miami cardiologist and an occasional Los Angeles accident attorney or two.
