Link Hills Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the real challenge at Link Hills Country Club, and is it suitable for all handicaps?

Link Hills definitely keeps you honest, especially with its tricky greens and the creek that snakes through the back nine. While it's not overly long, those subtle undulations on the putting surfaces will test even the best short games, so bring your A-game with the putter. We think mid-to-low handicappers will love the strategic demands, but higher handicappers will still have a blast if they play smart and enjoy the scenery.

When is the best time of year to experience Link Hills Country Club at its peak?

We always recommend visiting Link Hills in the spring, typically April or May, when the dogwoods are blooming and the course is lush. The temperatures are perfect for walking, and the fairways are at their absolute best. Avoid the peak summer heat if you can, as the humidity can be a real drain on your energy, though twilight rounds are still enjoyable.

Can non-members play a round at Link Hills, and what should I expect regarding green fees?

Yes, Link Hills is semi-private, so you can absolutely book a tee time as a non-member, which is a huge plus. Green fees are pretty reasonable for the quality you get, usually ranging from $75-100 depending on the day and time, including a cart. It's a fantastic value for a well-maintained course with a classic country club feel.

What's the one hole at Link Hills Country Club that I absolutely shouldn't miss, and why?

You've got to pay special attention to the par-3 14th - it's a beauty and a beast. With a downhill tee shot over water to a well-bunkered green, it demands precision and a steady nerve. It's a true risk-reward hole that can make or break your round, and the views from the tee box are just stunning.

Beyond the golf, what else should I know about visiting Link Hills, like practice facilities or the clubhouse?

Don't just rush off after your round; the practice facilities at Link Hills are solid, with a decent driving range and a chipping green that's great for dialing in your short game. The clubhouse grill is also surprisingly good for a casual lunch or a post-round drink, offering classic American fare and a friendly atmosphere. It's a great spot to relax and recap your birdies (or bogeys).
