There are only 247 “true links” courses on planet Earth, four of which are located in the USA. Three of those are found at the amazing Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.
The Bandon Dunes, Pacific Dunes, and Old Macdonald Courses are America’s answer to traditional seaside golf found most prominently in the UK & Ireland, and with 6 courses in total on-site; there’s much more to write home about here than a day on the links.
Bandon Dunes is rightly considered to be one of the best golf resorts in the world, with a core function and belief that "golf was born on rugged, wind-swept land like this”. This epic golf resort provides a stunning golf experience akin to that found at many of the world's greatest links golf courses in Scotland and Ireland, and is a superb alternative to the classic American classics of Pebble Beach, Sawgrass, and Kiawah Island.

Having hosted the PGA Championship on 3 occasions as well as The 2021 Ryder Cup, the Straits Course at Whistling Straits is, without doubt, the main attraction at this spectacular Wisconsin resort, but there are plenty of other reasons to put this place atop your USA Golf Holiday bucket list.
In addition to the Straits Course, the Whistling Straits Resort is home to The Irish Course (another Pete Dye creation) which is a championship challenge in its own right, and visitors can also enjoy easy access to the Blackwolf Run Course, which is just a 15-minute drive along the shores of Lake Michigan.
Away from the course, The American Club is a Forbes Five-Star Resort Hotel and the Midwest’s only AAA Five Diamond Resort Hotel, so it goes without saying that this is an outstanding accommodation option for any golfer travelling to this part of the USA.
