Another hidden gem that doesn’t get talked about enough. Great conditions very fun track. For the price I’d go back here again before Pilgrims Run

We came with the West Michigan Ski Club Traveling Golf Gang and had a lot of fun on 9/16/24. Everyone seemed to have a good time and some good eats after for golf.. Your course staff is very friendly and helpful. I love this course -- it is one of my favorite ones around Grand Rapids. Thanks for the great day ! We will be back ! Shirley Nevins Golf Coordinator

We went to the Links for their golf simulator and some food/drinks, and the golf was fantastic! However, our service was incredibly slow. Took the waitresses close to 20 minutes to take our drink orders and get it to the table. She never checked on our table once our food came out either.

As an advisor golfer, I am ashamed it took me this long to checkout and play this course. Less than an hour drive it was well worth the travel time. I enjoyed this course as much as tulleymore and st Ives. The price is very fair for the quality golf experience. Enjoyed lunch following the round. The sports memorabilia on the walls is incredible.

I played last week and noticed they have continued to make improvements to the golf course...newly resurfaced cart paths. As always, it is a great course to play. Also, they demonstrated integrity and customer service by holding my rangefinder until I noticed it was not in my bag earlier today at a different course. I appreciate being able to retrieve it because it is not the first time.

Met up with friends at their cottage and went for dinner. Started off with drinks and an appetizer. I've had cauliflower bites at other establishments, but the cauliflower bites here were very flavorful. The portion was very generous. For dinner, we ordered pizza and friends chose cauliflower crust. The pizzas were perfect. The staff was incredibly efficient and very polite. It's a very clean establishment as well. The golf simulators were very busy (you need to bring your own clubs) but did not hinder the restaurant side because of how they are set up. Links is definitely a great place to go…

After a few rounds here, this has quickly become my favorite course in the area. Affordable and in incredible shape. The food was absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to play more rounds here. One of the highest quality courses in the area in my opinion!

Very nice course, and has always had a great superintendent. Fairways, greens, bunkers, all very well kept. The price has gone up accordingly though. No senior rate, no fall rate on the weekends, both kind of a bummer. I've been playing the course since it was constructed. Love the course. Very good food.

Excellent golf course at a decent price point. Steadily improving overall time with a very nice clubhouse and restaurant.

I met the owner, Tom, who convinced me to give this course a try. Unsurprisingly, Tom described his own course as a beautiful and fun 18 holes that had a variety of features, and so I gave it a try. Tom did not lie. These 18 holes were an absolute blast. The course is beautiful, the holes are fun, and the bar and grill was fantastic. Absolutely 5 stars and an excitement to return.

I always enjoy this golf course. Very challenging and the greens are always in very good condition. Clubhouse personnel are very friendly and fun to talk to.

The course was well maintained but holy moly… I spent more time swatting bugs being and eaten alive by flies than I did actually golfing. My buddy drove in circles while I was hitting to avoid the feasting bugs, let’s spend a couple bucks on spraying guys. Other than that the layout was cool though but wow I will never play here again unless its under 60 degrees and I know the bugs aren’t out yet.
