New Albany Links Golf Club
About
New Albany Links Golf Club sprawls across gently rolling hills covered with meandering creeks, mature trees, and native grasses and wetlands. There are also a number of lakes throughout that come into play on several holes. The golf course is a fair challenge but it prides itself on its playability. With tees ranging between 4,800 and 7,000 yards, the course accommodates a range of different skill levels. The layout features tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers throughout. New Albany Links Golf Club's 12th hole is one of the course's most memorable. It requires a long drive and an approach that carries past a long bunker and a pond to a narrow green. To the left is certain punishment but a tough up and down waits if you miss right.

Sultry golf
Temps were up to 88 degrees with high humidity but a perfect day to play golf. Met a nice couple who played well. Excellent outing & will definitely play again.
Good round
NAL has made a lot of progress in restoring the course. The bunkers still need some love and a few greens but the fairways were fast (Very form with lots of rolls) and in great shape. The greens rolled fairly slow, but were well maintained. I wish a lot of the golfers would fix their pitch marks (not course’s fault).
Played on Father’s Day. Front 9 was slow, but we needed up finishing in 4 hours.
Solid Course
This course was well kept and the staff was friendly and flexible due to different circumstances.
I would have paid more!
First time playing this course and wow...what a difference in your game when the conditions are consistent and proper. Challenging but manageable regardless of level. Pros would have fun and amateurs are looking to conquer in the next round. Can’t rave enough about this course and the value it brings for the price.
Nice Course and Good Value
Good value. Nice Layout. Very nice amenities. Fairways and Greens in good shape. There are several spots on the course that need some attention. Working on the bad spots on the greens, but bunkers need attention.
Good clean, well kept course.
Went on a holiday with no stppages. Greens were in really good condition. Links play was fun.
Nice day in New Albany
Paired with three BLUE TEERS, while I stayed in my lane on the gold tees. We had a great afternoon. The only reason for the 4 star vs 5 was quite a few of the traps were unplayable, otherwise t he course is in top notch form.... I played using a golf pass promo code otherwise this course was a little more than I commonly would spend for green fees, but having said that, the course is worth the extra spent because of the excellent condition it is in. The staff is adhering to to Covie-19 protocol. The weather was mid 50’s to low 60’s with a little wind.... excellent for early May in Columbus, OH. I am a bogey golfer and watching the youngers hitting irons where I am hitting woods, was a treat.... glad I opted to play here today...
Nice course
Considering the time of year and COVID-19 the courses was in nice shape. Staff was friendly
New Albany Links
Good value, layout is challenging, pace of play a issue. Let a player out in front of us who was SHARING golf clubs. Traps need sand, no rakes (coved-19 precaution) still most traps had little to no sand.. All that being said, I would play again, really good course for the cost.
Never Again, unless I want some food from the Pub!
They should be ashamed for not closing the course if half the holes are not available, the tee boxes are in bad shape, and the greens aerated with no grass to be found.SMFH
Great Value!
The course was in great condition last Friday. One of the best courses in the area!
Beautiful! Well maintained, great staff
One of the better public courses in Columbus I've played this year. The course was in decent shape.. still had some areas that could use some attention, but still in better shape than most courses around Columbus. Was very fair and variety of tees makes it good for most players. Golf carts were very nice but lacked GPS. Used GolfPad instead. Greens are massive, in my opinion too big. Pin placements were pretty unfair considering you have HUGE greens.. If you miss the chances are the pin in 4 yards from the edge or less and leaves a very difficult pitch over most likely sand with the green running away from you. Overall a very enjoyable place to play!
Most greens were in good shape, speed was average, there was some greens that had small sections under repair. Fairways were all in good shape.
How were the fairways and greens? Was it wet? Thinking of heading there tommorow
