Scott Park Golf Links

About Scott Park Golf Links

You'll find this municipal track carved into the high desert landscape at 6,000 feet elevation, where the thin air adds 10-15 yards to your drives and the mountain views provide a stunning backdrop to your round. The course takes advantage of Silver City's natural terrain, with several holes playing through arroyos and around established cottonwoods that frame fairways and create strategic challenges. What sets this place apart is its old-school, no-frills character. This isn't a manicured resort course, but rather an honest test of golf that locals have been enjoying for decades without pretense. At under $30 for 18 holes, Scott Park represents exceptional value for golfers exploring southwestern New Mexico, especially considering you can walk the entire layout and take in the rugged beauty of the Gila National Forest region. The 4.1 Google rating reflects what you'd expect from a well-maintained muni: consistent conditions, friendly staff, and a course that rewards good shots while punishing wayward ones. If you're road-tripping through this part of the state, it's worth the stop for the elevation golf experience alone.
