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.

Spread out tee times!
Course could be very nice if they cared at all. Seems to be just about pushing out as many tee times as possible. Waited very long on 7 of the holes I played. Greens slow and not mowed. Sand traps were awful, stuffing people off the front and back 9. Has potential if people cared enough
Great layout, needs investment
Shot-makers course. Bunkers need upgraded. Grass is inconsistent and patchy. Priced too high for condition.
Slow
Almost 6 hrs to play 18 during the week. The three other players in my foursome all quit after nine due to pace of play.
Shame
Good course ruined by no starter and the worst pace I have ever played. Greens also suck
Good course
The traps need a lot of work. 4 some in front caused a bad slow round.
Horrible Pace of Play and Management
Friendly staff but their lack of a starter and concern for tee times makes this course unplayable.
They let anyone go out whenever they want and all three times I have played here the pace of play has been insanely slow.
Greens also look like Swiss cheese from all the unfixed pitch marks.
I would just wait to play elsewhere if this is the only time you can find a time.
It’s a shame since I like the layout.
Over The Hill
Staff is always terrific. Unfortunately, it seems that the quality of this course has went quickly downhill over the course of 1 off-season. Tee boxes and fairways were overwhelmingly bad. Greens still roll smooth and true. Really the only positive. Bunkers aren’t worth chipping up your clubs hitting out of them.
Good golfing
Course was in very good shape but due to rain it had places where it had not been mowed in a few days. Greens were fast and fair. Sand traps were not able to be in play die to rain. Overall I really enjoyed the course and understood the problems due to weather.
Good course….slooooow play
Course is in good shape, difficult in spots. Pace of play is slow. Took 2.25 hours to play 9 holes on Thursday evening, no leagues.
Course in good condition for this early in the year
Extremely slow play
In two hours, we got through 5 holes. We could not even finish the round and not a single Marshall around to help push play along. That was an absolute waste of time and money. The staff was friendly but they are stacking tee times too close without any enforcement of Pace. It was absolutely brutal.
Course in Bad Condition
I have always viewed this course as one of the nicer public courses in Columbus. My mind has definitely changed. We paid $60 each and the course is worth no more than $40 right now. They have certainly let this course go. Several fairways and greens were in awful condition.
