Golfers' Choice 2025: All 49 states (excluding Alaska)

Savvy golf travelers can glean some important advice on where to play from Golfers' Choice 2025.

Top-rated golf courses by category

GolfPass reviewers rate courses based on six subcategories, from course layout to off-course amenities. Here are the highest-rated U.S. courses in each category from Golfers' Choice 2025, as well as America's most improved and best short and college courses.
A good layout often determines if golfers return to play again and again or go somewhere else.
With rising green fees, more golfers than ever are seeking out the best value golf courses.
Golf is a service industry, meaning a friendly staff can go a long way toward happy customers.
Improving a golf course isn't easy, but the efforts are so worth it for local golfers.
We consider courses that are less than a par 70, shorter than 6,000 yards or less than 18 holes as a "short course".
Going back to school on the golf course can be very educational.
