The Sunrise Course at Underwood Golf Complex serves the El Paso community as part of a municipal facility operated by the City of El Paso Parks and Recreation Department. Designed by Ken Dye and opened in the early 1990s, the course provides accessible public golf in the far western reaches of Texas, where the Chihuahuan Desert landscape meets the Franklin Mountains. The Underwood complex includes multiple courses on its property, with Sunrise functioning as one of the primary eighteen-hole layouts available to residents and visitors. The routing works across relatively flat desert terrain characteristic of the El Paso region, where elevation changes tend to be modest and the playing corridors are shaped by the arid environment. Water management and turf maintenance follow the constraints typical of desert golf, with fairways and greens maintained against a backdrop of native scrub and sparse vegetation. The course layout accommodates golfers of varying abilities through multiple tee options, reflecting its role as a public facility designed for regular play rather than championship competition. As a municipal course in a city with limited golf options relative to its population, Sunrise sees steady use from local players and military personnel from nearby Fort Bliss. The facility emphasizes affordability and accessibility, providing straightforward golf in a setting shaped by the distinctive climate and topography of the borderland region where Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico converge.
