About Butterfield Trail Golf Club

Butterfield Trail Golf Club in El Paso, Texas is a highly regarded public course set against the dramatic backdrop of the Franklin Mountains in the westernmost corner of Texas. Located near Fort Bliss on Cottonwoods Drive, the course was designed by Tom Fazio and opened in 2000, with a layout that makes dramatic use of the desert terrain — arroyos, native desert vegetation, and mountain views punctuate every hole. The course plays through the high desert environment at over 3,500 feet elevation, with firm, fast bermuda fairways and sweeping mountain panoramas that are arguably some of the most visually striking in Texas. El Paso's dry, sunny climate means exceptional playing conditions for most of the year, with mild winters and low humidity making this a year-round destination. Named after the historic Butterfield Overland Mail Route that passed through El Paso, the course honors the region's frontier heritage.

History

The course was developed on the east side of El Paso near Fort Bliss and takes its name from the historic 1850s Butterfield Overland Mail stagecoach route, celebrating El Paso's position as a critical gateway on the old western frontier.
