About The Lodge Golf Course

The Lodge Golf Course at Cloudcroft dates to 1899 and sits at 9,000 feet elevation in the Sacramento Mountains adjacent to the historic Lodge Resort. One of the oldest courses in the Southwest, the nine-hole layout winds through dense ponderosa pine forest with tight corridors demanding precision. At 9,000 feet expect drives to carry 15-20 percent farther than at sea level. Summer temperatures rarely exceed 75 degrees, making Cloudcroft a premier escape from desert heat. A genuine piece of New Mexico golf history spanning more than 125 years.

History

The Lodge Golf Course at Cloudcroft opened in 1899, established alongside the historic Lodge Resort built by the El Paso and Northeastern Railroad to attract tourists to the cool Sacramento Mountains. This makes it one of the oldest golf courses in the Southwest. The course and resort have hosted governors, celebrities, and generations of New Mexicans over more than 125 years of continuous operation.

History enthusiasts, resort guests, and golfers seeking the ultimate high-altitude experience at one of the Southwest most storied and unique courses.

Why The Lodge Golf Course is Hard to Book
Booking Difficulty
Moderately competitive

Moderate summer tourist demand from resort guests and day visitors; weekends in July and August are busiest but the nine-hole format means tee times turn over quickly.

Without automated alerts, you'd need to constantly refresh the booking site hoping to catch a cancellation. That's where TeeTimeGo comes in — we monitor the tee sheet and notify you the moment a slot opens.

Insider Booking Tips

Book through the Lodge Resort for combined lodging and golf packages. Summer weekends benefit from advance booking of 3-5 days. Pack a layer as temperatures drop quickly at 9,000 feet. A second loop is common for golfers wanting a full 18.

Pro tip: Set a TeeTimeGo alert so you're notified the instant a cancellation opens — even at 2am.
