Link's Golf Course

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Link's Golf Course to avoid the notorious coastal winds?

We always recommend late spring or early fall for Link's. You'll find the winds are generally calmer, and the fescue is still vibrant without the intense summer crowds. Avoid winter unless you truly love a raw, challenging test.

What's the biggest challenge golfers face at Link's Golf Course that we should prepare for?

Without a doubt, it's the greens and the approach shots. They are incredibly undulating and demand precise short game control, often requiring creative bump-and-run shots over aerial attacks. Don't be surprised if you find yourself putting from 30 yards off the green.

Is Link's Golf Course worth the premium green fee, and what's included in the experience?

Absolutely, it's a splurge, but one we believe is entirely justified for the pure links experience. Your green fee covers a forecaddie for your group - a non-negotiable we highly recommend for navigating the blind shots and subtle breaks. You also get access to their excellent practice facility and a warm-up bucket of balls.

Do we really need a caddie at Link's Golf Course, or can we navigate it ourselves?

While you *can* walk it yourself, we strongly advise taking a caddie; they are invaluable here. The course has numerous blind shots and tricky lines off the tee, and a good caddie will save you strokes and help you truly appreciate the course's nuances. Plus, walking with a caddie is part of the authentic links experience.

What's the best way to unwind after a round at Link's Golf Course, and are there any must-try local spots?

Head straight to the clubhouse's "19th Hole" pub; their clam chowder is legendary and the perfect way to warm up after a windy round. For dinner, we always make a reservation at The Salty Crab down in town - their fresh catch of the day is unbeatable and a great way to cap off your golf day.
