Brigantine Golf Links
About
The public, 18-hole golf course at Brigantine Golf Links is not only beautiful scenery and a great game it is also a National Audubon Sanctuary. Its layout has roots in Scottish golfing tradition. The golf course utilizes the natural environment featuring a softly rolling terrain and marshes as well as gorgeous bay views.
Like traditional Scottish Links courses, Brigantine is marked by nearly tree-less greens and the type of shot to take often depends on the wind. There are powerful sea breezes that affect the shots and bunkers that make for an interesting game. The smooth, rolling greens encourage a bump-and-run strategy. The scenic course's location close to the Atlantic City boardwalk and the challenging, but fun game it offers make it popular among tourists and locals of all skill levels.

Definitely Worth Your Try
I played late on a Sunday afternoon and got right out. I was hoping for a retired military discount but they only apply on weekdays. ($45 I am told). Very friendly staff. I was a single and breezed through the course. Greens and fairways were in good condition. Although not a long course, the wind will play into your round and it's a factor. It's a bit over priced when compared to McCullough's or Twisted Dunes or Hot Deals on Golf Now, but if you're staying on Brigantine, the convenience is a big factor. It has a charm to it which you should experience.
Awesome course, BRING BUG SPRAY
The horse flies and mosquitos will eat you for lunch. Bring bug spray and ignore the trails of oil the lawnmower is leaving all over the greens and you will have a great day!

Thank you for visiting us at Brigantine Golf Links. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review! We hope you join us for another round soon. #BrigantineGolf
Nice course to play once
The layout of the course is great. The traps, water hazards and reeds make the course challenging. Most courses with all the rain we had, most courses are in great shape. The course is already getting burnt up, the sand traps have numerous weeds, and a lot of crabgrass. With much needed maintenance, the course would be quite attractive.
Hello furieb. Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff so they can work to make any necessary changes. Thanks for visiting us and we hope to welcome you back for an even better golf experience soon.
Hole in one!
Played with family over vacation. We got off early at 7am (a must for July). The course is in good condition. Near the North End of the island famous for our “Green Head” friends. Make sure to bring plenty of bug spray and “Skin So Soft” (South Jersians will know what this is). My son had a hole in one on the #15 par 3. A very nicely laid out hole! The staff was gracious and gave me a discount so I could buy my son an actual hole flag!! What a great day!!!
Hi gc1722772305. We truly appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. Congrats to your son on his ace and we look forward to having you back soon! #BrigantineGolf
Lost Opportunity
I have been playing this course since 1972, and I've always enjoyed the layout. After it was purchased, a couple decades ago, and improved, I was so excited. However. It appears the facilities have been in decline ever since. The club house is worn, the cart paths are in poor condition, there is no help available outside. This excellent layout is run as the second rate municipal course its owners apparently want.
Hi det0NDEctYJfnYgio0XS. We truly appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. However, we're sorry to hear your recent experience with us may not have met expectations, and we are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make necessary changes. Thanks for visiting Brigantine Golf Links, and we hope to see you again in the near future.
Awesome course
Awesome course. This course is in great shape. Greens are fast and true. Fairways are cut. Rough can be challenging but playable.
u8558040, thank you for your kind words! We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Brigantine Golf Links. #BrigantineGolf
Most unfriendly staff... Except for the women working the bar. She was great.
If you have the first tee time, don't arrive early. We arrived at 6:00am for our 6:30 tee time and everything was closed. A sign on the pro shop door said the course doesn't open until 6:30 and there was no place to wait other than near the practice green. There was a grounds keeper rolling the practice green and once he was finished, we started putting to kill time. Immediately, another greens keeper started yelling at the person rolling the green saying the course doesn't open until 6:30 and to kick us off the practice green if we were in his way, which we weren't since we waited until he was finished working. The course itself was in good condition but make sure to bring bug spray. There are flys everywhere. The round itself was fine until we got to the 18th green where the same greens keeper who yelled at us earlier kept watering the green during our approach shots and through our putting and even had his phone go off while we were still putting out. Next time, we'll spend the extra money to go somewhere that treats their patrons a little better.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for your customer experience during your recent round as this is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make necessary improvements before your next game. We will continue to work towards an excellent golf experience by using your comments for guidance, and we hope we have the chance to welcome you back again soon.
What we liked, what we didn’t
What we liked:
1) cheap 6:45am rate $35 per player
2) fast pace of play on a slow Tuesday summer morning
3) condition of greens - smooth and fast
4) challenging hole design
5) tough slopes on greens and difficult pin placements
What we didn’t like:
1) some holes had hidden tee landing spots for rear tees, presenting an extra challenge for first-timers here; a course guide would be helpful
2) couldn’t find on-course restrooms (may have been locked)
3) cart paths are a mess
Contrary to previous reviews, we found the fairways in very good shape, but the tee boxes needed some rest and recovery. We also disagree with previous reviewers that houses next to the some of the holes were too close to fairways. We realize this is a matter of opinion, but our group never had trouble with the houses coming into play because they were too close. If we hit anywhere near someone’s backyard, it was because our shots went way off target.

Make sure to get a good deal
Everything about the course was in good shape except for the tee boxes. Some tough holes, but an overall fun course. I would definitely recommend if you can get a good deal.
Thanks for the 4-stars and great feedback on our course conditions! We appreciate all of your feedback as it has been shared with our staff, as well as your recommendation. Come back to Brigantine Golf Links again soon! #BrigantineGolf
Not worth the money
This is not a 61 dollar course in any day. We got it for 61 on a hot deal. Needs major work. Pace of play was terrible
Victor, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us, however, we're very sorry to hear your recent round may not have met expectations. We are committed to providing our golfers with a valuable golf experience and encourage you to reach out to our staff if you would like to discuss any concerns further.

Links
I enjoy the true links nature of this course.
The residential neighborhoods typically do not enter into play. The course melds with the surrounding natural setting.
The greens rolled true.
The staff was exceptional.
I enjoyed the attitude of the young man in the pro shop. He was all about golf, as it should be.
Thanks for the great feedback and 5-star review! We appreciate you choosing to play at Brigantine Golf Links and are glad to hear we could provide you with a valuable golf experience. Check out your review shared on our Facebook page and come back soon! #BrigantineGolf
Fun
Course was in great shape but last year the course had directional sticks that were missing thisyear. They should put them back. There should be better hole layouts on the score card.
Thanks for the 5-star review and taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your feedback on our course markers as we are always looking for ways to improve the experience for our golfers. We're glad to see you still enjoyed your recent round with us at Brigantine Golf Links, and we hope to have you back for an even better one soon! #BrigantineGolf
Don't Bother
The greens are a 10/10 (somehow). The rest of the course is a 2/10, and is uninteresting, in poor shape, and surrounded by homes (within feet of the holes). Play Twisted Dunes, Seaview, or Shoregate (amongst others) as an alternative.
Thank you for taking the time to review us! We see that your experience wasn't the best. We are always interested in learning more about these situations so we can improve. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the club directly. We hope see you again in the future.
Not Good Would Not Go Back
Arrived 5 minutes before tee time. My fault running late. I walked in was greeted by some snot nosed young man who said " Your Late Hop To It" Are you kidding me this 60 year old retired school teacher does not hop to anyone barking at me. The course was beat up to say the least . No golfers were playing behind us nor in front so there was no need to HOP TO IT.. There was soccer golf I believe 2 groups out on the course. They resort to this I guess because course is not doing well. So needless to say it was not a very good round of golf.
Thanks for the 4-stars and choosing Brigantine Golf Links! Come back soon. #BrigantineGolf

Just not worth it
I played here 20 years ago and my opinion is actually lower than the first time, course needs more maintenance money, gave a fair rating only because the course was wet and it was windy, houses are way too close to all of the holes, perhaps the owners should sell, it is not worth the drive from anywhere, better courses nearby.
WIll never return to play, disappointing.
