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.

Great course! Really good greens!

Great course. Fast greens. Slowish play. Staff pro shop stuffy. Outside staff is super rude like usual! They are a very rude bunch of guys on the outside operations be very careful with what you say to them they will make the start of the round awful! Not a friendly place to play. It’s like players owe the staff something. A very big turn off! Staff should be friendly and welcoming.

Very enjoyable course and staff

Get to the point, I loved this course. Like the layout, the staff, the challenge, mix of holes. I liked it enough that it's on my go-back-to list even if it's a drive. I don't boast about courses easily, but this was what I like in a course.

First off the first tee gets you out and away from the club into quiet surroundings with one shot I played all alone and the quiet along with the challenges made it great. A few sneaky holes surprised me when they put a turn in the fairway I didn't pick up on before hitting my ball, but that's cool, that's golf.

Course was in real good shape. Water is in play on several holes. Trees aren't unless you spray them. greens held shots of all lengths.

Go play it. You'll like it.

Nice place to hang out

I only finished 9 holes cause of the raining. Nice staff and friendly. Course layout is fun. Nice porch and nice course view from the club house. I drove over 1 hour to get it the club house and got a rain check but it wasn't full amount that I paid. not sure when will be back.

Nice experience

The course is in great shape and the facilities (pro shop, grill, bathrooms, etc.) are superior to other courses we've played this year - even ones that cost considerably more. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The place is a little out of the way, but definitely worth the trip!

Always a challenge

Links at Gettysburg is always a challenge. The course is in great shape and has a beautiful layout. If it's your first time playing it, bring some extra balls.

Course is in Great Shape

My annual trip up to Links of Gettysburg (almost 1.5 hours) and I was not disappointed. Most courses in MD have suffered too much rain and too hot conditions, which have thinned out fairways, caused "crusting" on the fairways and fringes, burned out the edges of many greens, and with 4.5-5 inches of wet, thick rough! It was a sheer delight playing Gettysburg because there was none of the MD conditions--the rough was cut (albeit thick and lush, but at a good height), the fairways were green, and the greens were smooth and fast! The only issue were some of the tee boxes needed TLC and the bunkers needed a tad more sand and were, in some cases, a little wet. But, that was minor given the excellent condition of the course. This course sneaks up on you with stone-edged ravines you must carry and slope in the fairways that looks minor but can cause a ball to go off line and errant real quick. Then, the greens are tremendously fast with subtle breaks...and then some massive undulations, which are not so subtle! It's a fun course, but definitely target golf. Driver is not always the best club off the tee. The staff is always welcoming, and the Tee Time Pass gave a foursome a $50/player fee vs. the $79 rack rate on a Saturday morning. Overall, a great day. Just wished I had played better...but love the course.

Beautiful course, excellent condition, awesome greens

I played the white tees with two good players that knew the course. I was a single. Beautiful course, excellent condition, greens are awesome, lots of break and quick. Not boasting, but I had 4 birdies on front and one on the back.

Loved the course and played it well. Such an enjoyable golf round. Weather was perfect too. Lastly. My two playing partners were great people to play with and both had game!
