Short-cut Bermuda fairways, true fast greens, and level tee boxes consistently earn high marks from recent players. Friendly staff and a well-regarded layout with water features make this a top choice among local public courses.

Love this course

This is my second time since moving to the area. Waters and sands are placed strategically, you must know where they are for your play. Greens are softer, due to the recent rain storm. Will come back to play again in the near future.

4 stars as I have not played the whole course yet

Great course for the price I pay for twilight hours as I typically play after work hours. Well kept golf course layout with some fun water hazard placements along the way on a few of the holes. Nice staff member let me and my friends golf even after arriving 20 minutes late for our tee time which was a nice surprise. Only negative is that there’s no night golf here as there’s no lights to light up the golf course, so once the sun is down you are done for the day.

First time to play

I loved the course layout. Water and sands are strategically placed. You must know about them to avoid. Starter was kind enough to explain the first hole water location and tee shot placement. I will come back to play again this course.

They can do better

I've played this course a lot and it's one of my favorites, but the greens yesterday were terribly slow and not well-kept at all. They need to do a much better job getting players to fix divots to start with.

Nice challenge

Fun course. Strategic placement of fairway bunkers. Greenside bunkers a little firm and compacted. A course well worth revisiting often.

If Not for the Greens

Had a chance to play Skylinks miday.. was pleasantly surprised by a quick pace of play! The course looked great.. the fairways are the best in Long Beach, like hitting off carpet! I’ve always enjoyed the layout here and that still holds true.. the bummer for me this day was the condition around and on the greens. Quite a bit of bare dirt and patchy grass around the greens which leaves some pretty poor choices for short game shots. The greens themselves were excessively slow and so bumpy you couldn’t hold a line. It appears the greens had been aeriated some time ago but weren’t healed yet.. i always look fired to putting on these greens.. usually quick and true

Today was a frustrating and disappointing experience

But I have no doubt the green sleeper will have them back to normal in no time

Horrible Pace of Play

Pace of play was awful. Management unwilling to take responsibility. Sat watching others play more than played ourselves.

Unorganized

There was a commotions in golf shop because guy was having problems. Customers were getting frustrated with the late 20 year old because he was being rude. He needs to be replaced. Many people were complaining. They need a better staff for such a good layout.

Very rude checkin guy with hat looks like a mixed Mexican. Attitude like he didnt want to be working. Mad at the world. Pretty sad

It sad when people dont like their jobs and just put out bad vibes especially to a paying customer just trying to enjoy a round of golf. Late 20s looking miserable at his job looking pretty patheitic making minimum wage. Sad way to live. Guy with hat in checkin needs an attitude adjustment, looking like a mad chick.lol
