Really Enjoyed
The course was in a much better shape then last year. Greans were average speed but rolled true. Beautiful day and look forward to playing again.
Great Course
First time playing at this course, and it did not disappoint. I got a great deal through golf now(13$ for 18 holes). The course is well maintained and can be pretty challenging at times. Staff was friendly
Not going back anytime soon
Used to play this course several times a year 1st time this year. Course has declined immensely, tee boxes barely had grass, fairways were more weeds than grass, greens torn up because golfers not repairing ball marks, and got splinters from a bunker rake that looked older than I am. Very disappointing to see the course like this as I used to like playing there
Hidden gem that’s very challenging.
Recent heavy rains got the rough cut behind but overall a good course to play if you like a challenge. The course has areas that need a little TLC but for the value of the green fees some things can be overlooked. Had a great time at a four half hour pace.
Front nine is in good shape
Played on a Friday late morning. Not a lot of people on the course yet. The front nine was the best part of the course. Tee boxes and fairways were in good shape. Considering how much rain we’ve had, the greens were very dry. The back nine needs quite a bit of work. A little pricey for the conditions.
Early Wet Spring
This course will get better as the weather dries out. They are weeks behind on the mowing. It has been to wet to get to most of the rough and it is really rough. Most fairways and tee boxes were mowed . The greens were large and in good shape. I feel they will get caught up in the next few weeks. We enjoyed the layout and will come back later in the year when they have had time to mow.
Last resort choice
The price was right, and the cart was like new. There was no one pushing us and we didn't have to wait on anyone very often. However, the course was in awful condition. The fairways were poor, the greens were poor and very slow, and the tee boxes were poor. The only reason I played this course is because it was the only GolfNow "hot deal" I could get at this time of the day (2:45 pm). I needed this time because my son was visiting me, and couldn't arrive earlier. There are a lot of nice courses in the Indy area. This isn't one of them.
Fun layout, but rough conditions
Links has a fun layout and a lot of holes that play at angles and tempt you to cut corners over trees and water. Greens are big and nuanced. Unfortunately we played after a week of on and off rain that probably kept the mowers off the course all week. Lots dandelions and overgrown rough, and if only the bunkers had sand in them. Overall, not bad but also expected for $25. Hopefully they can get the course back in good shape because it is a really strong layout.
Awful shape
The course is in brutally awful shape. It's honestly hardly playable. Expect to lose loads of balls as the rough is not well groomed and dead grass everywhere makes it impossible to find your ball.
Cart path only
Disappointed that it was cart path only because of pooling water from rain on the course. Fairways not in very good shape. Large greens Ok. Pace of play very good. Flat course, but several water hazards and many sand traps. Because of our golf now price, it was still a good value for 2 of us.
Played This One Many Times and Average at Best Conditions, Still a Fun Round
I've played this course through the years. Expansive greens and a good layout. Average conditions. Tee boxes had bare spots and weeds but acceptable in most places. Fairways needed mowed and had bare patches and were looking rough in places. Greens were extremely hairy, long, and slow. However they were in good condition relatively and the best part of the course. Pin positions looked to be in the same spot since last month, but were in tough approaches. It was very wet so we didn't play in the bunkers, but they seemed to be in good shape. A great deal for the rate we paid, but seems to be lacking in overall maintenance for the year end. I'd go back for sure, but not spend a lot doing it..
Needs some TLC
I'm a regular at the Links. Overall, it's a decent course for the money...only $30 for 18 during peak hours. It's definitely not The Fort. The course could use some TLC in the sand traps and tee boxes; fairways were a little rough today...usually they cut it pretty course.
Bad Shape
Great staff, pro shop and snack bar personnel were friendly, helpful and top notch. Rest of course is really bad. Tees and fairways and roughs are full of weeds and crabgrass. Landscape timbers lining cart paths had rotted in several places it looks like the course has had minimal maintenance money spent on it in the past year. Sad, as layout could be challenging and greens have potential.
Nice golf course
We enjoyed our round of golf. There were only a few other golfers so we finished in 3 1/2 hours. The fairways were in good shape and the greens were ok. I visited several traps and trees and lakes. The course is not as pretty as other courses, without any hills, but it was a good value. We hope to play there again.
Worth playing
The course is fun to play. Huge greens! They are in decent shape. Cut a little high, but could be because of the hot weather. Fairways and rough needs some good TLC. Too many weeds.
This course could easily be great with a little work.
