Gull Lake View Golf Resort

Have never been a fan of Links Golf.

My round at Stoatin Brae did not change that.

Played the course out of curiosity because of the awards and high rating it has received.

Lot of blind shots and bland appearance made it less appealing.

Glad I played it because it affirmed my disdain for links golf.

I will not play it again.

I love this, and all of the other Gull Lake Resort courses! They top dressed the greens the morning I played it and I could hardly notice. The courses (all 6 of them) are always in immaculate shape! I was first one off after they reopened the course for play and in 3 hours, I was in my way home!

I’m struggling to think of a time when the staff was as friendly and helpful as the pro shop, starter and halfway house staff. The course was in great shape and it’s a nice layout. Given the price and the reputation, I expected a more interesting and challenging course. With no water and few actual hazards, it was almost a little boring. If you’ve never played links golf, I recommend this as a good example but I wouldn’t put it among the top 10 in the state.

Challenging greens that rolled true and held. Every green had some level of break.

The layout was challenging, providing an opportunity to try different shots and clubs (other than driver from par 4 tee). The starter provided great playing tips. Will return again, especially with a great price from GolfNow.
