You get to distinct front and back nines here. The Lake nine requires length. The Canyon nine requires lots of accuracy. In fact you don't really use your driver that much if you are not playing the black tees. There are four great par 3's out here. On many holes the farther you go the narrower the fairway gets due to bunkering or lateral hazards. The greens are nice, easy to read, and don't have much break to them. Tees and fairways are not that great. It is easy to get a thin lie in the fairway.

Made my biannual trip to the local course last week. And for the 10th straight time, I continue to be amazed at the less-than-stellar conditions.

Fairways and rough are in poor condition. Fairways have many bare spots. The rough is a varied mix of clump grass, weeds, hardpan and mud.

Greens and tees are extremely nice. The new bunkers are a nice change.

Still an "only at a big discount" course.

I played this course for the first time yesterday. It is the best conditioned course I've played in the area. The front nine is more player friendly than the back, but the back is more scenic. The ... Continue »

I played this course for the first time yesterday. It is the best conditioned course I've played in the area. The front nine is more player friendly than the back, but the back is more scenic. The course is not tricked-up, although there are several holes on the back nine which require some course experience to play most strategically. The staff was very friendly. The advice the starter gave about playing the yardage and ignoring the wind and slope on the par 3's was dead on. Pace of played was slow on the first few holes, and on a few holes on the back nine, but overall the pace was fine, even though marshall sightings were few and far between. I look forward to playing this one on a regular basis.

Loved Tijeras Creek! Course was in immaculate condition. Greens played to a 9.2 on the stimpmeter and were dead-eye accurate. Would have liked a bit more "full-service" from the staff (bag drop, cl... Continue »

Loved Tijeras Creek! Course was in immaculate condition. Greens played to a 9.2 on the stimpmeter and were dead-eye accurate. Would have liked a bit more "full-service" from the staff (bag drop, club cleaning, etc.) and wish I knew so many of the holes were cart path only, but all in all it was a great track!

Played here Sunday 7/18 on Golfextra so it was a good value. Course is very enjoyable with front 9 (Lakes) very different from the back (Canyons) which played harder. Course in good shape, nice fairwa... Continue »

Played here Sunday 7/18 on Golfextra so it was a good value. Course is very enjoyable with front 9 (Lakes) very different from the back (Canyons) which played harder. Course in good shape, nice fairways and greens (a little slow). Pace was good for a Sunday afternoon under 5 hours. Will play again.

Sun. p.m. walk-on, & starter got me a tee time as promised. Fairways in great condition. Sand traps were fluffy (& I was in a lot of them). Some greens were marked up, but others were smooth. All ... Continue »

Sun. p.m. walk-on, & starter got me a tee time as promised. Fairways in great condition. Sand traps were fluffy (& I was in a lot of them). Some greens were marked up, but others were smooth. All played fast. Keep it straight and be out of trouble, but most holes allow for recovery after wayward shots. Must play for an upscale public course. Pace a little slow, but it was Sun. p.m. Excellent value with Golf xtra card or Tj Ck course club discounts. & you get to hit off grass on the range, not mats.

Played on 7/5, overall course is still in great shape from tee to green. Some bunkers are still soft, approach shots are getting plugged in certain areas. Other than that, very green and lush all ar... Continue »

Played on 7/5, overall course is still in great shape from tee to green. Some bunkers are still soft, approach shots are getting plugged in certain areas. Other than that, very green and lush all around.
