The Links Course at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort is the ultimate in risk-reward golf. The architect, Tom Jackson, routed five holes along the bay and then wound the course inland across rolling undulations. In order to prevail against the blustery Gulf Coast winds, accuracy and proper club selection are essential, making it a true shot-maker's golf course. In addition to being right along the shores of the Choctawhatchee Bay, the Baytowne Marina serves as a backdrop to the course, providing even more stunning views of the Emerald Coast. Of the four championship golf courses that Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort offers, the Links is one of the original two and also one of the most popular. The layout offers a unique links experience that all skill levels can enjoy, especially since it features four different sets of tees.

Worth the cost

Played with my wife and we were not disappointed. Fairways In much better shape than a lot of other area courses. Greens were slow but in good shape. Lots of water so be prepared to bring an extra sleeve of balls. We will play again.

Fun, tough course.

1st time playing the links, I was not disappointed in the least. It's a great layout, greens are overseeded and maybe a little slow but were very very green. I've always liked that look with dormant Bermuda.

Wish I had played better, but was basically the 1st round since November as the weather has not permitted to play at home.

With plenty of water to navigate around this course, it makes those rusty swing problem cause your score to go up a bit!.

I would play this course again,but you have several options at Sandestin. I want to play them all.

Great course

Wonderful views at the Links, water on 2/3 of the holes. Fairways and greens were in fantastic shape for february. Small range, irons only. Have to walk up two flights of stairs to pro shop. The lay out was great, lots of different holes but you have to play here to few times as their are a few tricky shots, but overall it was a great experience and id play again and recommend to others.

Thursday round

Course in great condition. Greens best shape as I play often here when in town. 2nd round in a row here where pace of play is ridiculous. They are letting fivesomes play and no rangers are in sight. Had to skip holes last two rounds because of this.
