Angel Fire is a winter/summer resort located about 25 miles east of Taos in the Moreno Valley of Colfax County 150 miles northeast of Albuquerque. The Moreno Valley is a 15 mile long 3 mile wide high alpine valley at 8,000 feet above sea level.

The golf course is surrounded by mountain ranges in a stunning setting with the Agua Fria Peak on the south end of the valley, Baldy Peak at the north end of the valley, and Wheeler Peak to the northwest. There's water in play on all but two holes with the front nine through narrow aspen, spruce, and pine fairways while the back side is more open through the meadows. The signature hole #6, is a par-3 that drops 200 feet from tee to green and is thrilling to play. From the back tees, it's 6,645 yards, 71.0/137, course/slope ratings, designed by Paul Ortiz in the 1970s.
