The course is in great condition! Had a great afternoon of golf with my daughter. It's nice to have shade when the temps are rising. The staff is friendly and take good care of us. read more

My husband and I have always liked this course but recently, the rates keep going up. We now pay more to play this course with no amenities than we do to play any other course for nine holes during the week. The rates just went up to $74 for Monday thru Thursday and $78 for Friday thru Sunday. It has out houses that only get cleaned when the company comes out so you are stepping in pee on the floor all the time and too many times the porta potty is not usable due to poo on the seats. You have to bring your own refreshment because the water machine doesn't always work. There is no restaurant, no golf Marshall and you can't take the carts into the parking lot. We have compensated for all this until now but for what the course is charging now, we expect more especially since we can go to other courses and get more for less money. read more

I live nearby UNM north golf course but, being a non golfer, never knew discovered the awesomeness of this place for my specific living circumstances until my partner who's a golfer and a law school alum told me about it. Specifically, this golf course is good for all around exercise..be it golfing, walking, running and heck dog playing (only after the golf courses are closed/all players are done with their games in late evening though). It's a great place to come and relax..and socialize for your dogs, your neighbors or your friends as well! Best of all..for non-golfers..the place is free! And even for golfers..my partner told me...it's really affordable and reasonable! Overall, I'm just so glad to live close to this place to take advantages of it. P.S. best time for non golfers to go is late evening almost sunset time. The weather is nice and the golfers are done or close to finishing their games. P.S.S. beware of some coyotes along the west sides of the golf course perimeters too! read more

Parking at the North golf course has just become difficult. A permit is required to place on the dashboard, but permits are only given to golfers playing the course. The practice green and chipping areas are now off limits to those of us that just want to practice and not play for the day. Parking office looking for more revenue apparently since they are now ticketing practicing golfers who choose not to play or cannot play. Course is supported by state taxpayer dollars, but state taxpayers are no longer welcome to the practice facilities. read more

We are blessed to live right by this beautiful golf course and it is such a beautiful place! We love to walk our dogs there. However, please be aware that despite the leash laws, a lot of people will let their dogs off the leash and so you may end up with the dogs in your face. They take great care of the golf course and the walking trails. There are communal water bowls for the dogs but you may want to bring your own. There are also dog poop bags so you can clean up after your babies! This is a great family place and it's a true oasis in the middle of the city! read more

UNM North is in the best shape I've seen it in years - I'm not sure if they hired someone new to look over the course but it is in great shape. The occasional walker/runner will run across fairways but other than that the course and greens are in amazing shape. One of the best deals you can get in ABQ. read more

Great run. Landed at 2pm. Quick check of email and then out hotel room door to here. Perfect if you just get to town and need to get a run in before dinner. Ain't going to lie elevation kicked my butt for this former Colorado boy gone NW last 15 years. Nice short hills to sprint and get it on, recover down hill. May do again tomorrow read more

If you are just out to walk your dog or go for a 2 mile run it is a great place. If you came to play golf, I think not! The first four holes were fine but when I went to tee off on the fifth hole two women were walking right up the middle of the fairway. Dogs were not on a leash and not a care in the world. When I got to number six some guy was playing ball with his dog ON THE GREEN. Where is the marshal? Maybe they should just turn it into a park because it certainly is not a GOLF COURSE. read more

I did not come here to play golf. I was jogging around the neighborhood and stumbled upon a running trail that encircles the golf course. The paths are paved with dirt and the runners can be challenged with hills to build up some resistance. No bathroom or outdoor water fountains available. Street parking around some parts of the park. Right next door to University of New Mexico (UNM). Great place for a run (or a game of golf!). read more

It's a golf course, not a dog park. . . yet. Enjoyed playing there over the years but the obnoxious non-golfers and dog walkers take over shortly after 4 PM even though signs are posted. They have no respect for the golfers or the course. They walk right across the fairways when we are teeing off, at times daring you to hit towards them, other times just oblivious. Letting their dogs run loose and crp on the fairways, the rough, etc, all while people who paid to play the nice little course are trying to golf. The staff do a good job keeping it cleaned for the most part. They are interfering with paying patrons. Somebody will eventually get hit and injured. It's like playing Russian roulette out there. Eventually some dog walker or person who thinks it's the community park will get injured, possibly seriously. If they just showed a little respect and courtesy by staying to the walking paths outside the course boundaries, as some do, it wouldn't be a problem. Getting to where I don't play there much any more. PS. I love dogs and have three myself. read more

I live a block away from this golf course and it is a neighborhood hotspot. I can't review the actual golf course, because I don't golf, but it is great for a walk, run, or jog. In the mornings and evenings inhabitants of the neighborhood and students at UNM use the path around the golf course for walking and running. The trails are well maintained and feel safe since they are well populated. The safety of area is important to me as female jogger. Also, in the evening, the green of the course transforms into a dog park where pooches can safely run around off leash. It is the gem of the neighborhood. read more

We recently tried this course near downtown Albuquerque. The course is in good shape and is a 9 hole par 35. We have played it 3 or 4 times. This weekend, while playing, one shot inadvertently went farther then anticipated. I waved and quickly apologized for hitting to close (10 yards from the group ahead) Thinking all was okay we finished the hole. At the next tee box the group ahead had hit their tee shots short, we waited until they decided to "instruct" us to go around to the next hole. This was unacceptable and decided to simply wait. That was apparently unacceptable, they motioned us to play through. We tee'd off and our shots were less then stellar, but we continued through this threesome. We finished the hole and by the time we were at the next green the course manager had been called, he came to yell at us for hitting into the threesome. The level at which he scolded us for hitting into that group, was outrageous. We had apologized and then thought nothing of it, until the wrath of the course manager was delivered. The course manager didn't bother to ask our side of the incident, but took the word of the complaining threesome. The threesome isn't the reason, we won't play here again, It was the over-the-top behavior of the course manager. It's too bad we enjoyed the layout of the course, and I shot my first 79...silver lining in an otherwise soured day. read more

I love the 2 mile running track!!! The golf course looks really nice too but I didn't play. I look forward to playing someday.

We play this course often...about a couple times a month. Just played today actually. Fairly easy course, fast flow, good way to get in a quick round of 9 in the middle of the city. And the greens are often in great shape. Love all the large trees too! Rich, the main guy there, remembered me almost immediately after we started coming to the course after 3 times. Now he knows me by my first name when I call for a tee time! Great customer service! Although I love that the course is open to the public and their pets, the only problem with twilight is that walkers allow their dogs to run free through the course that late in the day and you might be trying to shoot around them and their humans. read more

"Bring your A-game," My father in law shoots in mid-80's and those are his words of advice. I recently picked up the game to make my inlaw visits more fun. So far we have played Paco, Tanoan, Twin Warriors and UNM. UNM is by far the best course for your experience and money. read more

Roger Case is a very rude club house manager. I called and asked about t-times and cost. I was told 1 price and when I arrived, I was charged 30% more. I inquired about it to the club house manager, He was very very rude. The course is in great condition, but I will not return due to the terrible customer service. read more

I use the trail to jog and really enjoy it. It's only 2miles but can be made longer by taking additional routes. As the previous poster said, it feels like a safe route for female joggers. I'm really glad updates were made. read more
