Nags Head Golf Links

Bring a few extra golf balls for this short little jewel, and keep your driver in the bag. Windy days will play difficult, and the views of the water are fantastic.

Excellent greens
Only played 9 hole (3+ hours)
Extremely crowded

Course was in great shape for spring. Weather was sunny, dry and cool. Greens were fast but easy to read, fairways were pretty wide open with WATER HAZARDS everywhere and almost every hole. Of the 5 courses we played the week we were here, this was the most challenging with the water hazards. You may want to pack some extra balls, some AA for the water holes. So glad we payed and expierenced this track in OBX.

Very short course. Conditions were good over all, the lay out is nice, very tight. A couple of holes right on the waters edge. I would play here again.

Love the course and the challenge but the greens have a lot of poa Anna in them which makes putting very bumpy.

Awesome well kept course that is very challenging, especially if the wind is blowing. The guys in the pro shop and the restuarant/bar are top notch. The views on the front and back could rival most courses on east or west coast.

65-70 Degrees in February! The course was in great shape. Quit a few people took advantage of the day.

One of my favorite outer banks courses to play when on the family vacation. The 4 holes along the sound are outstanding. Short course, yet still a fun challenge. Definitely leave the driver in the bag. Use GPS since some holes have some blind shots where yardage is a challenge. Overall, it's the best 6000 yards I've played.

I love playing this course. Though it is usually windy, this day was perfect. It winds along the sound, and is just a beautiful course for scenery. It is short, but narrow, and with some well placed dunes, can make this a challenge. I highly recommend it.

Great conditions. Better hit em straight. Outstanding views. Wind was not a factor today but could be.

Great day, course in great shape - had a good time, except for my play - Ha..

great course, narrow, hard. leave the driver in the bag.

First time playing a links style course and it was certainly a challenge! Course itself was in great shape. Greens had been recently aerated and were poor at best. Pro shop said it had been done 2 weeks prior but the greens were still like putting on a cheese grater.

We played as a foursome behind a tournament and the pace was good. The course is in very good condition and the greens putted nicely. We were amazed at the undulations of the various holes given this is a beach setting. Challenging enough for all four of us. We ended up playing two rounds over the weekend here.

This course is more difficult than it looks on the scorecard. The wind comes into play big time and it requires a lot of course management. Purchase the yardage book!

Nice place to warm up for the big course. The place is beautiful the people are nice and helpful. The course is too short from the tips. Several holes required irons from the tee or ended up being driver wedge. This is a great course for a family outing.

Overall, the Nags Head Links is a good vacation course. The fairways and greens were in good shape, and the staff was very friendly. I suggest using a range-finder or buying a yardage book in the pro-shop as there many of the holes have deceiving carry distances due to the backdrops of the course and there are a few blind shots.

The course has enough nuance to offer a challenge to skilled golfers (although it's short) but is very playable for the casual "vacation" golfer.

I would recommend this course to a friend, and will play here again in the future.

Not a long course but the wind makes it play way longer!
Entire course was in great shape! If you don't have a GPS, get a yardage book! Plays completely different on a NE versus a SW wind. Bring lots of golf balls!!

Nags Head is a nice course that requires some serious accuracy with the driver. The wind, which was not so bad when we played, could cause one to change to irons if you are not accurate off the tee. Nice water views, course in good shape. I will be back!

I am a senior and this is a nice challenging and scenic course for all levels of play. I played from the longer tees and was more challenged than I had hoped but it was fun and enjoyable. I'm planning on playing again but from the senior tees and should score much better. This course is well worth the drive and money to experience.
