New Mexico contains 14 named golf courses and country clubs documented in the USGS Geographic Names Information System, a federal gazetteer of geographic features distributed across 14 cities and 11 counties throughout the state. Because GNIS functions as a catalog of named geographic features rather than a registry of operating businesses, the directory represents a partial and time-lagged snapshot of the state's golf landscape. A recently opened or renamed course may not yet appear in the federal database, and operating details such as public or private status, current fee structures, and course layouts fall outside the scope of GNIS records.
Individuals seeking to locate and identify courses by city and county can use this directory as a starting point. However, comprehensive information about a facility's current hours of operation, green fees, membership requirements, and course design should be obtained directly from the course's official website or by contacting the facility.

How to use the New Mexico directory
Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
