Apprentice / Assistant Golf Professional : Woodland Links
Woodlands Links Golf Course stands out as a premier destination for golfers, characterized by its lush, manicured landscapes and beautifully wooded areas.
This course offers a unique design where no two holes are alike, providing a stimulating challenge for both novice and seasoned players. With water hazards on 11 of the 18 holes and 28 strategically placed sand and grass bunkers, the course demands skill and precision. Additionally, the natural roughs encourage confident swings, particularly on holes that meander through picturesque, forested sections. Owned and operated by Gordon Lobb and Family, Woodlands Links is committed to delivering an exceptional golfing experience for all visitors.
The clubhouse, crafted from the original post and beam bank barn on the property, dating back to the 1840’s, showcases striking rusticated fieldstone architecture. Enhanced by beautifully landscaped rock gardens and outdoor patios, it offers stunning views of the course, creating an inviting atmosphere for relaxation after a round of golf.
