You'll find golf in Taos to be a good value, generally in the mid-range for green fees. Expect to pay between $70-120 per round, depending on the specific course and time of year, which is quite reasonable for the quality and unique setting.

What makes the golf in Taos County unique compared to other mountain golf destinations?
