The Links

Beautiful course and fun to play, although fairly tight play with water on 13 of 18 holes. Had a great time and loved the views. Would definitely recommend.

Marshall w/attitude

Greens had been punched within the last week or so, wish I had known when booking. We had a marshall try to push us at the turn, where the snack and beverage stand is-didn't appreciate it given we were under two hours at that point. Other than that, no complaints and would definitely play it again.

Lady at desk was unfriendly, starter was awesome. 13th hole was worse than some cow pastures. Awful.

Great course

Very challenging. The greens had been recently airerated so the putting somewhat tough.

Once we arrived, we were informed about the sanding of the all greens prior week, so putting was quite a challenge.
Also, approach shots had to be high to allow for the harder conditions of the sandy greens.
Overall, we would play course again but not in month of May or June.

Great course.

Great gollf course. Everything was very good. Greens were aerated a while back and showing signs of filling in. They did play slow so it took a while to get use to that . Personally i would have liked faster greens. All in all, though, worth playing.

Needed attention

The course needs more rakes for the San traps. When a rake is not easily available people do not take the trap

Nice layout

I really liked the layout. The greens had been aerated recently so they were slow. The starter was very nice. The check in staff seemed a little distracted and not overly friendly.. i would go again.
