The Links at Land's End
About
Although the Links at Land's End has a location that is seemingly remote, many golfers have deemed it worthy of the trek to Yantis. The challenging round is coupled with a scenic and secluded location along the banks of Lake Fork. You won't see much water on the early holes, which play among mature trees, but it has a prominent presence on the golf course starting with the fourth hole. It's a layout that demands accuracy with tall grass and trees lining the holes in addition to the water hazards and strategically placed bunkers. The stretch of holes from the sixth through the 12th is situated right on the lake, making you feel almost as though you're playing on an island. They offer the best views on the golf course. The Links at Land's End is a challenging but fair round that will appeal to players of all skill levels.

Always great, beautiful course on a peninsula with lake views
Course in great shape even though it is winter. Greens in good shape and consistent.
Great golf anytime
Always a great time at Land's End. Course was great despite the windy conditions. Can't wait to get back out there. Greens were in great shape as well as the fairways, even after the 7+ inches of rain that fell a couple of weeks ago. Always challenging, never the same shot twice.
Gorgeous Course
This is a Gem in the Country on the lake. I played it any years ago when it first opened. It has grown into itself and now I live closer by. It is an awesome layout and in great shape. On Lake Fork a beautiful shot makers course.
Great Course
This is the greatest course and value in Northeast Texas. Hunter Smith is doing a great job as GM.
I really wish they had a course Marshall to aide in speed of play.
Always great, beautiful course on a peninsula with lake views
Course in great shape, played late in the day so she gave me a voucher for 9 holes which I didn't expect, sunset on the lake was great. On a Sunday and not busy felt like I had the whole course to myself. Great course, great staff, new carts, great price. Does it get any better than that?
Always a great course to play!!!!
Awesome as always. Fairways and greens are perfect. Addition of the pond on #2 is a nice touch, not fair, but a nice touch.
Great course with challenge on every hoie
Highly recommend playing for the layout and difficulty especially if it's windy.
Beautiful layout on Lake Fork
The course has always been good, now it is top notch
Played Sat 9/30 as a twosome. 4-somes were all friendly and let us pass at appropriate times.We played in 3 hours,
Loved everything about the course. I believe it is new ownership since the last time I was there 2 years ago...the new guys have made a really good course into one of the best. Greens were flawless. Fairways in great shape. Sand traps fluffy and maintained.
Not an easy course at all, and you'll use every club you have. It starts out with 2 to 3 holes where you can par them all, but quickly ramps it up as the holes start to wrap around the lake.
Lunch in the clubhouse was really good, too.
The only negative is it's a 2 hour drive to get there, but if were closer to DFW, it would be packed every day, so I'll put up with the drive.
PS...jalapeno sausage at the grill at the turn was excellent.
Challenging layout
Course was soggy wet from previous day's rain but very playable without any roll. Greens in perfect conditions as with all bunkers and fairways.
GPS was okay at best as they're installing new ones.
Needed GPS for some shots crossing hazards.
Will return...NO one on course during mid-day on a Friday.
Best course in east Texas
Course was in great shape, greens consistent, fairways good. Raining when we got there so we went in and had breakfast. Food was good and quick, staff was great. The course is laid out on a peninsula so many holes are lakeside. Most holes are laid out so you don't see other holes, nice layout. Had a great round.
Excellent course
Greens were the best ever, fairways in great shape
Links at Lands Inn
Played this course many times over the years. The course is in excellent condition. The greens are better then I have ever seen them. Highly recommend playing this course.
Great Course
Course is in great shape, staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. Cart girl makes continuous rounds which is great, but had no option for a sandwich or dog at 9 because the turn is NO where near the club house. Over all it's a great course.
Beautiful Course
This is my favorite public course in North Texas. Course was in great shape and challenging. I will be back. Side note I drove two hours to play.
The Links at Land's End - excellent
Among the best public courses in East Texas. It is a bit off the beaten path but well worth the drive. The 3 of us traveled from different cities, McKinney, Rockwall, and Longview. The course condition was excellent and the layout offered a very challenging round. The fairways were over-seeded and well maintained. The greens rolled true, offered multiple shape variations, and included some lake front peninsula locations. Miss the green on these holes and you will need another ball. Lake views on many holes. The golf course frontage houses are on large lots, are located a good distance back from the fairways and greens, and do not pose a distraction for the golfer. The carts are equipped with GPS course plotting and green views. The course staff were friendly and accommodating.
GREAT EXPERIENCE
HAD AN AWESOME TIME AT AN AWESOME COURSE WITH AMAZING VIEWS OF THE LAKE AND NATURE..THE ONLY THING I COULD SAY BAD ABOUT THIS PLACE IS IT NEEDS MORE SIGNS TO ACTUALLY FIND IT...
