The Links at Gettysburg sprawls across rolling hills situated near the hallowed grounds where the defining battle of the Civil War took place. The golf course wages a formidable challenge itself, featuring 35 steep rock cliffs where the stone-lined tee boxes are perched and 10 lakes and waterfalls that come into play throughout. Red rock cart paths give a contrast to the lush greens and sparkling blue waters. The dramatic elevations allow golfers to enjoy stunning views of the surrounding countryside but the scenery can be almost too distracting since the demanding layout requires all of your attention. Be prepared for a bevy of strategically placed bunkers as well as mature trees. With the challenging layout and unrivaled views, it is no surprise that the Links at Gettysburg is ranked as one of the top 10 golf courses in Pennsylvania.

Well Worth Playing

Played this course as a single, but was paired up with another single. Played from the Blue tees and had a thoroughly enjoyable day. The course is an interesting design with plenty of elevation changes and good variety to the hole designs, both in terms of length and movement. There are one or two unusual doglegs where the line of play isn't readily apparent off the tee. Taking a course guide book is a good idea for first time visitors. The fairways are fairly generous and kept in excellent shape. There is water in play on several holes placed so that bad shots get wet and good ones get rewarded. The greens have quite a bit of movement and at the speed they were the day I played, you don't want a downhill putt on them. Probably rolled 10.5-11 on the few flat spots but 13+ downhill. All in all a good test of golf. Pick the right tees and you'll enjoy this course. I know I'll be back.

Beautiful course and conditions

Greens were running fast so it took a little time to adjust. Bunkers were perfect, a little local knowledge is a help. Expected GPS in carts was disappointed that wasn't the case.

A Great Experience!

Was able to play during the week so course was not crowded. The course was again challenging and makes you think before taking a shot. The fairways great, rough fair and greens fast. It took a few holes to read the speed of the greens! Overall a great outing!

Links of Gettysburg

Staff very accommodating. Paired a single up with our group of three. Excellent weather. Course appears well played but in very good condition overall. Some mushy spots from watering. Pace of play was very good but it was mid week in the afternoon. Very challenging layout; high handicappers will not enjoy. Pricey for the southern PA area. Would definitely recommend to better golfers.

Love it here!

Its been a few years and I had forgotten how challenging a course the Links at Gettysburg is,
everybody from the pro shop help to the starter, bartender to the grounds crew were genuinely nice.

The greens had just been aireted(sp?) , and I still enjoyed myself immensely.

One of my favorites Beautiful course in excellent condition. Challenging yet manageable based on the tees you choose. Pretty setting in the hills outside of Gettysburg with a little history mixed in.

Loved the Course

I can't say how much we enjoyed the course. Challenging but not unfair. Generally in good shape ( the greens are being top dressed but they weren't too bad). Very scenic golf course. Can't wait to play it again

Greens aerated

Greens were aerated. I was warned ahead of time but played anyway. Other than that the course was in great shape and staff was super friendly.

Nice course/Friendly Staff

Beautiful course -- fairways and greens were immaculate. Greens were very fast and there were some tricky pin placements. Staff was very friendly and informative. If you haven't played the course before, make sure you listen to what the starter tells you about the first 2 holes -- they can be tricky (blind) drives. Woman friendly course (challenging but not too long or overwhelming). Would definitely play again.

Likks at Gettysburg

Everything was great just the front nine you need a cheat sheet because some of the hole I played wrong
should have hit a lot less club on a few holes like hole 1 all you need to do is hit to the 150 marker because there is a very steep hill after that'would like to play again but i live in NH..tks

WOW

My husband and I loved this course. It had a varied tract of holes, the conditioning was superb, the scenery was beautiful and the course played fair. There were a number of holes where mid-handicappers (18) like ourselves could make it to the green in regulation. Just wish it wasn't 5+ hours away from our home or we would play it often.

This is a very interesting and challenging course. The elevation changes and multiple hazards are nice to look at and make the course uncommon. Staff is excellent.
