Rating 72.3

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.

Links at Brigsntine

Greens & fairways in good shape. Bunkers & tees were not. Fun course to play always dealing with the wind. Don't think it's worth over $50.00.

Best Condition I have played it

I play this course about 2 times per year on average when I am in Atlantic City. The conditions on this trip were the best I have ever seen it in over 12 years. I really like this course as a convenient tune up for the rest of the week. The layout is fun and the greens are great!

Poor course

Could not delineate the fairway from the rough. Like one big clover patch and poorly marked / cut dairways. Greens decent shape. Some cgallenging holes but course needs a lot of tlc.

No bathroom acailable. No cart girl. Bar closed up at 4:30 so no drinks available. Management needs to think about how to make this a better experuence.

Great course!

I am not a good golfer, by any stretch; I average 115 shots per 18 holes. That being said, this course was great for me: some sand, water and dog legs, some challenging shots, but not TOO many challenging things. The fairways are wide, so even a "not great" drive won't hurt you too much, and the course itself was beautiful. I would play here again any time.

Great golf - even a better deal.

Got a great deal on Golfnow.

Played as a single until the 2nd hole as I another single joined me. Pace for the first 9 was 2 1/2 hours but picked up on the last 9 as we played under 2.

Plenty of Brigantine sand in the bunkers and the greens ran true. Haven't played here in more then 5 years but I know I will be back before summer ends.

Brigantine Resurgence

This course took a beating from Sandy and also multiple management changes. It is now really coming back into its own. John Hammer and his staff are turning this course into a real gem- Greens are fantastic fairways are green and filling in- the traps have been fixed. Pro Shop staff are on point and super accommodating. pace of play is perfect.

This course and its location close to Atlantic City make it perfect for an outing. The only drawback is no Beverage service9currently)and the team is working to fix this.

A real MUST PLAY course for anyone in the area-

Nice to get out and away from the casinos

Had a very nice round. The front 9 is fairly long and wide letting you stretch out. The back 9 gets narrow and challenging. We motored thru the back nine a little over an hour. Only 15 minutes from the Marina Casinos of AC. Will definitely play again. Course conditions were very good despite the last 2 weeks of rainy weather. I don't get the complaints.

Tough Winter at the Links

I've played the Links many times. This was my first time this year, and it was clear that they had a rough winter. I understand that there were some areas that flooded during the big storm in January. There were patches where all vegetation had been washed away, and some of the traps were almost devoid of sand. But the staff is working hard to repair the damage, and all things considered, the course is in relatively good shape. The greens were in excellent condition, and except for some bare spots, most of the fairways were in decent shape. I'm sure that conditions will continue to improve as the weather gets warmer. Don't be misguided by the negative reviews. Just be prepared to move your ball from "ground under repair" and have fun.

I have played here several times in the past couple weeks and want to note that needed improvements are underway. Earth moving equipment is everywhere, some tee boxes area being address, lots of unplayable rough I'd being removed and overall improvements are underway. Looking forward to a new and improved course.

G.I.N.O. ....."Golf In Name Only"

I played this course in early March, under partly sunny skies and mid 60's temps. The clubhouse is pretty neat, the staff friendly, and the location unique. But that's where the positives begin and end. I get that it's early in the season and I really tried to take that into account....but other than the tee boxes and greens, the course is a wreck. The fairways were thready, bunkers devoid of sand, water hazards full of trash and the rough chewed up and muddy. I saw some workers on the course early on, but couldn't really tell what they were doing. It's kind of like when you let things go around your house for too long and have so many projects, you don't know where to start. Oddly, all of the flagsticks were sawed off to about 3 feet tall. I'd never seen that before and assumed it was either a fraternity prank, or had something to do with visibility against the backdrop of the adjacent housing development. The pace of play was excellent, as I was a single following a single...that is until the 8th hole, when a twosome magically appeared in the fairway in front of me. At first I thought it was the single in front of me merging with another. But I realized on the next hole that this was just two members inserting themselves wherever they felt like it. Now there were several open holes behind me to choose from, as the course was practically deserted, but they clearly lived in the aforementioned development that the course winds through. I waited on each hole until we made the turn and they were "gracious" enough to offer me to play through. I initially declined, as I said I had to stop at my car for more tees and my sunglasses.... And that was the last time they offered, despite me nipping at their heels for the next 9 holes. I finished in 3 hours, which is great for an average length course. But I could easily have burned through this in 2.5 hours without the wait. Will I be back??... No. At $25 for a Golfnow Hot Rate, I'd have been much better off playing Seaview. Lesson learned.

very disappointed

This was one of the most poorly maintained courses l have ever played. l played at least 60-70 courses last year and this is one of the worst. It was so dirty with trash and construction debris all over the course, every hole was covered with goose droppings from tee boxes to greens. The only nice part of the course was the greens, the were awesome. l would never play it again and l felt cheated even though l paid only $25 to play.

Great Greens

Early Morning Dec. round was priceless. I played as a single, and was the 1st one out. Done in 2.5 hrs., and that's pulling the pin on every green and actualy reading the green. That's what golf should be. I was warned by the pro shop that during high tide I might see excess water, but I didn't even notice. The Greens were in great shape, some of the best ive seen this summer.
