LOTS OF POTENTIAL

RECEIVED A GREAT GOLFNOW PRICE AND WAS VERY HAPPY WITH THE VALUE. THE LAYOUT WAS A LITTLE DISJOINTED BUT STILL FUN WITH SOME INTERESTING HOLES.

A true gem here!

Hadn't played the Links at Bowen Lake in probably 10 years. Was very pleased and surprised to find an incredibly well kept up golf course. Lacks the big clubhouse, has a smallish driving range, and has mostly unpaved cart paths, but the teeboxes, greens, fairways, bunkers, etc. are very well maintained. Very challenging course from the tips, tight driving holes, well placed bunkers, etc. There are some holes out here that can compete with anybody for aesthetics and challenge. #10 comes immediately to mind. Just a beautiful hole. And the par threes are pretty much all awesome. We will be back soon!

This course is challenging and keeps you on your toes!

This course is not for the beginner, some holes can be tight and long. Course was in great shape and reasonably priced through Golfnow.com.

Great condition and very beautiful setting.

We arrived and were greeted warmly. We were the first twosome off in the morning and played in under 3 hours.
The course was in great condition. Leaves on the course are usually a concern in the fall, but they have done a great job of vacuming and blowing the leaves into the tree lines.
