Club de Golf Cuernavaca

Club de Golf Cuernavaca sits in the city of Cuernavaca, the capital of Morelos state, roughly an hour south of Mexico City. Known as the "City of Eternal Spring" for its temperate climate year-round, Cuernavaca has long attracted weekenders from the capital and maintains a tradition of golf dating to the mid-twentieth century. The course was designed by Juan Icaza and Ignacio De La Borbolla, both figures in Mexican golf architecture during the sport's expansion across the country in the decades following World War II. The routing takes advantage of the region's rolling terrain and established vegetation, with mature trees framing fairways and defining playing corridors. Cuernavaca's elevation—approximately 5,000 feet above sea level—means the ball travels farther than at sea level, a factor that influences club selection and approach strategy. The layout reflects the design sensibilities of its era, with traditional risk-reward opportunities and greens that reward accurate iron play. The club serves both local members and visitors from Mexico City seeking a retreat from urban density. Its location in a city known for colonial architecture and gardens gives the facility a distinct character within the broader landscape of Mexican golf. The course remains a functional test for players of varying abilities, with enough length and strategic variety to engage regular play while accommodating those less familiar with the nuances of elevated golf.
