Tanoan Country Club, Albuquerque

The Sandia Mountains’ sandstone peaks fade into the horizon beyond the fairways at Tanoan Country Club, framing a 27-hole course designed by former PGA Tour player Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge. The course is split into three nine-hole layouts that can be played interchangeably, each with undulating, Bermuda grass fairways and slick, bent grass greens. Elevated tees feature views of downtown Albuquerque. Before teeing it up on the course, warm up at the Club’s practice facilities, which include a driving range and chipping and putting green.

Nestled alongside its scenic links, Tanoan Country Club offers several recreational and relaxing amenities. Work up a sweat on one of the tennis club’s 14 courts (eight lighted). Guests enjoy a cool respite from the summer swelter at the Junior Olympic-size swimming pool or inside the clubhouse, where they can eat gourmet fare in a formal dining room or enjoy lighter eats in a casual café.
