Nicest course I’ve ever played. But also the toughest. Still an overall enjoyable round for someone from Texas. The pro shop attendant was one of the nicest people I’ve encountered on a golf course. She was very informative and friendly. Can’t wait to come back.

I’ve been hearing about this course for five years and we finally got to play the other day. Angela, inside the pro shop could not have been nicer and more accommodating to our group. 😊 She even said we don’t have many on the course this morning so if there’s anything you guys need or want on the course, just call me and I’ll bring it out to you, we’ve had that kind of service at smaller courses, but it was quite amazing to have that offered to us there. Absolutely stunning views, perfectly maintained course, the fairways and greens were absolute perfection. The greens did not have one blemish on any of them in 18 holes. They do have the white stakes short distance from the tee boxes so you do have to do a lot of walking with multiple clubs in the fairways. Make sure you have comfortable shoes on. The members on the course were VERY friendly!! 😊

It's a super chic, luxury place. We were there for having a dinner for family reunion. The food was extremely good. It was the case when I have no idea how do they do it, so tender and balanced it was. The bar was surprisingly not expensive. Of course service is super good. The hallway has exhibitions worth museum. They represent the past of this land. And of course the stunning beauty of the outside can't bypass anyone.

Likely one of the most difficult courses I have ever played. This course is every bit as beautiful as it is challenging. You really need to be on your best game here, a bad tee shot can ruin your hole. Each hole, is named, and has so much individual character. I lost a lot of balls out there. Many chances to enjoy the local wildlife and so many great mountain views. Pro shop is well stocked with everything you need and apparel. Staff is super! The clubhouse is beautiful and really embodies the atmosphere of this part of New Mexico. Chef curated menu offers so many great dishes. Many great meals out here.

Rainmakers is truly one of the crown jewels of the Ruidoso and Alto area. From the moment you arrive, the entire experience feels elevated — the beautifully designed golf course, the welcoming clubhouse, and the sense of community that makes everyone feel like they belong. The golf course itself is outstanding. It’s challenging without being punishing, immaculately maintained, and surrounded by some of the most beautiful mountain scenery you’ll find anywhere. Whether you’re playing a quick round or spending the whole day there, it’s the kind of course that keeps you coming back. The restaurant deserves just as much praise. The chef consistently turns out dishes that feel thoughtful, creative, and genuinely delicious — far beyond what you expect from a typical golf club. Every meal feels like it was prepared with care, whether you’re grabbing a casual lunch or enjoying a full dinner after a round. As a local real estate broker who spends a lot of time helping clients discover the best communities in our area, Rainmakers is always one of the places I’m proud to introduce. It’s not just a golf club — it’s a lifestyle and a community that reflects the very best of mountain living. Highly recommend Rainmakers for the golf, the food, and the people who make it all so special.
