McCullough's Emerald Golf Links
Rating Snapshot
About
The golf course at McCullough's Emerald Golf Links is an 18-hole, public course that is situated within minutes of Atlantic City. Designer, Stephen Kay decided to pay tribute to famous European golf courses such as St. Andrew's in his design. The European influences are reflected in the open fairways, tricky strong winds, and undulating greens. The golf course also boasts the region's only 100-feet elevation changes.
McCullough's Emerald Golf Links' signature hole is the seventh; it is also the course's most unique. The hole features hazards like large bunkers and wide, rolling fairways. Water hazards also come into play on five holes. The acclaimed golf course is challenging but it does provide a truly unique golfing experience.

Enerald is a gem !!!
Happy New Year !!
Chilly windy day on top of the land fill....
Was absolutely one of the most fun coarses I’ve ever played ..At $41 on golf now. Worth it
Some coarse knowledge would help , but targets for blind shots spot on .
Next time I won’t play it from the tips on a cold windy day. Will be going back
Playable fun course
The course sits on an old dump that was transformed into one of the best challenges in the area. The course is very well maintained at a reasonable price. Staff is very friendly and on top of your needs. Great little outside bar that overlooks the 18th green. One of my favorite courses in the area
Fun Course
Played in 3 1/2 hours, windy day but the course was in great shape. Can't wait to play it again when I am down there.
Great time
Great course and it was in excellent condition even compared to some other “high end “ courses in the area
Great layout
Good shape considering dry spell for the last 6 weeks. Greens very good.. staff very friendly.
Best Condition of any Course in the area
Really nice course. Fairways were fantastic, greens best in the area and roll true. Staff is fantastic. Best value for all courses around. Will play many more rounds here
I had not played this course in a while and I was pleasantly surprised at the excellent condition, It was a very nice day and I would recommend playing this course.
Nice greens
Tough day to play in the wind, pace of play was slow, group ahead was playing rather slow, greens are in great shape.
Terrific shape
The course was in perfect condition Greens were true. Staff was very polite. Highly recommended
1st Time , Will be Back
It was a cool morning with light wind, course in good shape, with a couple holes fairways freshly aerated. Loved the greens with slopes and bowls, not too many flat putts. Great layout, used the combo of gold and white tees. Staff was great.
Fun course that delivers what is advertised
Have played Mccullough’s now several times , great staff , and for a Links course it adds a fantastic dimension to your round that lots of other courses can’t deliver. If you haven’t played there give it a try . Only one small thing is that they do not have a practice range which is a bit disappointing. But overall it is a fun round the bar and food afterwards is also fantastic.
thanks
Always a great time at Emeralds. Course is awesome and so is the staff. Looking forward to next round at Emeralds.
the course was in great condition our playing partner was fine and very helpful. There were some slow spots but but it was Labor Day weekend, The bar was nice and drinks reasonable. Overall it was a very enjoyable day and i would recommend this course.
Nice Course, Great Condition
Always love playing here. Have to play it a couple times to be able to know where to hit the ball. Course is always in great condition. Will be back.
Great Course
Played this course for the first time today. I was really impressed by the course. Pace could’ve been a little better but it really wasn’t slow. I thought every hole was challenging and each made you think about how you should approach the hole. You use all the clubs in your bag. Overall, it was a great course and a fun round. We will definitely be back.
