The course is beautiful and fun to play. 4 stars on condition is harsh, really more like a 4.7 but If you play late in the evening like we did then expect the greens to be rough aroumd the hole. There are a few courses close that are just as nice for half price though.

Great course. Got a good deal on golf now.

Great as always

From the time you arrive till you drive out the gate it’s like going to see an ole friend. The golf course was great as always. The staff goes above and beyond all expectations to ensure the best possible experience. I will go back again and again.

Great course. Will come back

Unfortunately we were unaware that the greens were aerated which put a damper on the experience. Probably would’ve rated conditions as 5 star otherwise. Do think that there needs to be a notification of the greens being aerated, probably would not have booked the round until they were healed.

Was not able to locate any note on website, but maybe I missed it. Still a great time and hope to bring more people back for another round or weekend.

Great views

A little pricey for having to play cart path only and most traps weren't raked and we teed off after 12pm. For the money. We'll played elsewhere.

Overall experience worth the drive

If you have never been to Pursell Farms to play FarmLinks, you need to schedule your trip now. Great layout, good food and lodging options and even sporting clays and upland bird hunting make this a fantastic destination.

Beautiful grounds with an amazing staff! Passing through the area and had a chance to play here. Greens were punched somewhat recently, but rolled well, winter conditions very good, bunkers amazing. Chilled apples at the starter and the views from the 5th Hole - worth the price of admission. With a HotDeal it was a great value, even with winter conditions. Would love to come back in the fall when the leaves are turning.
