Very Special Place!

Farmlinks at Pursell Farms is an unbelievable place. The course is fairly playable but with tee options that can challenge even the biggest hitters. The course is always in tip top condition and the practice facility is best in class. After the round you'll definitely miss out if you don't go by the Inn where the pub is and have a cocktail or cold beer -- the place is as nice as every exclusive country club I've ever been too.

The clubhouse advertised a Bar-B-Que lunch and when we finished at 3:00 there was no food.

Excellent Course

Farmlinks is a very nice course with excellent facilities. There is a very nice practice area with range, putting green and sand traps. The course is open with wide fairways and very nice views. The only criticism I have is that the greens were a little slow. I would definitely play here again. It is one of the nicer courses I have played. It is comparable in quality to the RTJ courses in AL.

Heaven on earth

Played this beauty on a trip to Destin Fl from NC. A buddy convinced me to head towards Birmingham on my way home- So glad I did!!!! Better than most - if not all of the Trent Jones Trail courses - peaceful- beautiful- serene!!! Coming back in the fall with group of 16!!! Please note- I live in Pinehurst NC & appreciate world class golf- Farm Links is worth the hastle of getting there!!!

Fun course

Great course and facility. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. I rated the course as 4 star due to the poor condition of sand traps. I was surprised at the lack of sand and washed out condition. Of the traps.

Great course

This is a great place for a guy trip. We rented one of the cabins for a weekend and it is top notch. This was our second trip. Expensive all around so be prepared. The course quality is awesome. The fairways were incredible. Very tight cut. Greens were true. Covid did takeaway from the overall service because there was less interaction with staff this year.

They Know what they’re doing here

Just played today and I was put together with two other players. Pretty full roster of players but pace of play was really good. I didn’t wait more than 2 minutes at any time today and we were sandwiched between two foursomes. The conditions here are second to none on this meticulously maintained course. A real showplace of greens and predictable speed of greens. Cant recommend more highly.
