Frequently Asked Questions

When's the best time to play MGA Links at Mamantapett, and what should I expect from the weather?

We always recommend late spring or early fall for MGA Links; the fescue is vibrant, and the winds, while present, are usually more manageable. Expect a true links experience, meaning firm conditions and a breeze that can turn a good shot into a great one, or vice-versa.

Is MGA Links a tough track, or can a higher handicapper enjoy it?

MGA Links is a proper test, especially when the wind picks up, but it's incredibly fair. You'll find wide fairways, but the challenge comes from strategic approach shots and navigating the deep pot bunkers; it rewards thoughtful play over brute strength, making it enjoyable for all skill levels if you manage your expectations.

What's the signature hole or most memorable part of the course at Mamantapett?

For us, the par-3 14th, 'The Lighthouse,' is unforgettable - it plays directly towards the historic Mamantapett Lighthouse, often into a stiff crosswind. It's a short iron, but the visual drama and the need for precise club selection make it a true highlight of your round.

How hard is it to get a tee time at MGA Links, and what are the green fees like?

MGA Links is popular, so booking well in advance, especially for weekend mornings, is a must - we suggest at least 2-3 weeks out. Green fees are on par with other premium public links courses in the region, typically ranging from $120-$180 depending on the season and time of day, which we think is excellent value for the experience.

What's the post-round experience like at MGA Links - any good food or facilities?

The clubhouse at MGA Links is understated but perfectly appointed, offering a cozy '19th Hole' pub with fantastic local craft beers and a simple, delicious menu. We love grabbing a burger and reliving the round on their outdoor patio, which overlooks the 18th green - it's the perfect spot to soak in the links atmosphere.
