Golfweek's Best 2025: Top private golf courses in every state, ranked
Golfweek's Best 2025: Top private golf courses in every state, ranked Where can you find the best private golf courses in each state? Welcome to Golfweek's Best 2025 list of top private layouts, as judged by our hundreds of raters. The members of the ratings panel continually evaluate courses and rate them based on 10 criteria on a points basis of 1 through 10. They also file a single, overall rating on each course. Those overall ratings are averaged to produce these rankings. All the courses on this 2025 list are private and don't accept daily-fee or resort play. We also publish a list of each state's top public-access layouts. Keen eyes might notice there are only 49 states included on this list, because Alaska doesn't have any rated private clubs to include among the rankings. KEY: (m) modern, built in 1960 or after; (c) classic, built before 1960. For courses with a number preceding the (m) or (c), that is where the course ranks on Golfweek's Best lists for top 200 modern and classic courses in the U.S. * indicates new or returning to the rankings Alabama's best private golf courses 1.
