"This is raw, ancient magic on the edge of the world.
You drive out to Waterville Golf Links thinking you’re just playing a game of golf, but the moment the Atlantic wind hits your face and you look out across those dunes, you realize you're somewhere special. It’s wild, dramatic, and completely humbling.
The layout is absolute poetry—undulating fairways, punishing bunkers, and views that’ll stop you dead in your tracks. But what really seals the deal is the soul of the place. The caddies know every blade of grass and speak with that dry, razor-sharp Irish wit, and the clubhouse treats you less like a tourist and more like family coming home.
Finish 18, order a cold Guinness and a hot plate of food at the clubhouse, and try telling me there’s a better place on earth. Absolutely magnificent."

Such a challenging and beautiful golf course!! We had the pleasure of meeting Liam in the shop and hearing some of his stories really rounded out our experience.

Amazing course, solid staff, but pace of play is slow, took us just under 5 hours. It was my first time playing in a group with a caddie, but the caddie was for the people I played with. It felt very awkward as if I was intruding on the round. I would recommend asking to be paired with people that also have a caddie or do not have a caddie.
Gorgeous this is where I’d like to live
