queenstown harbor golf links

Little doubt that this is one of the nicest public courses in Maryland. Very well maintained with an interesting but somewhat traditional at times layout. The buffer ares between the course and the Chester river keep you well away from the waters edge....no doubt the views arn't any different if you were closer but honestly I was disappointed that the course didn't incorporate the "river" more. There are a few forced carries over marshland but they are not excessive from the middle tees.The staff was friendly and attentive... Surprisingly there was no gps on the carts....something that could have aided in speeding up play

We played the Lakes course the 7th of July. We got out early to skip the rush and played without running into any traffic. We did get overtaken by two guys that were anxious to play through. They didn't hit that well but their energy made up for the miss-hits. All of the greens were soft and playable. They rolled fast with the exception of those recently watered. The Lake course is ok, it has water around, the fairways and tee boxes are well maintained and we felt that we got our monies worth on the round. In the service industry on any given day you may encounter poor service but at Queenstown on that day, we had excellent service from everyone we met. From the counter guys checking us to the starters that covered the rules of play to the food service staff in the clubhouse. I've played at Queenstown before but generally during a tournament so playing in a smaller group gave me an opportunity to experience Queenstown in more natural setting. Queenstown for me is an almost 60 minute drive but I'd play it again.

Dear John,Thank you very much for letting us know about your experience. While we’re thrilled that you had a great round on our course, we’re extremely disappointed that your day ended in the manner you describe.

We appreciate your loyalty to our course and want to make sure that you return to Queenstown Harbor and always feel welcome here.Thank you again for your visit, and we apologize for this negative experience. It won’t happen again.

2 beautiful courses. A more challenging course called the River with holes along the Chester River near the mouth at the Chesapeake bay and the Lakes course which is not quite as difficult. They offer some good deals for afternoon and off season play which make it more affordable for frequent play. My opinion, one of the best courses in MD.

Great shape, greens run true. Beautiful views along the Chester River. Wildlife everywhere. Easy to get to just off Route 50.

Queenstown Harbor has 2 Courses (Lakes & River). The River Course is expensive, but the view of the Bay is amazing. What makes this place an Excellent destination to play a round of Golf, is its people. The Staff will make your round enjoyable. When you are done, the Outlet Mall is across from the Course, and within 15 minutes are some fantastic seafood restaurants, for those visiting the region looking for a great Crab Cakes sandwich or Steamed Crabs.

River course is stunning, well maintained, and beautifully designed. A number of holes have full river views. We went in fall and it is exceptionally grand then. Really pleasant, helpful staff and above average tavern food. A great find.

Queenstown Harbor offers the choice of two great 18-hole course - the Lakes and the River. The River is a bit more expensive, and you pay for the scenic views of the Chesapeake. Sister courses at Potomac Ridge and South River offer aditional golfing pleasures. Professionalism and customer service are the watchwords at Queenstown Harbor. You will love it!

I've played both courses during the month of May. They are both in fantastic shape and the views and scenery are amazing. Had deers come up to us from 15 feet away. From the teeboxes to the greens, this course is immaculate. The staff members are willing to help you with anything that you want. The clubhouse has a nice selection of clothing and shoes. The cart girl was very good a keeping us replenished. Good tips will always get them to come back more frequently. The prices are good for the course you are playing. The River course is the tougher and more expensive of the two. Whenever i'm up in this part of the country, I always stop there to at least play one round. Check this course out. You won't be disappointed.

the courses are in very good shape. The price is reasonable. The people take great care of you from the monent you arrive and while you are there. Example, played on a very hot day. On the back nine the "Assistant" brought wet towels out to us.

This course has beautiful views, a very fun layout, challenging pin locations and was in great shape. It is a convenient day trip out of Washington DC and well worth the greens fees (plus the cost of the Bay Bridge Toll). I played as part of a golf tournament and I would recommend this as a great golf tournament venue as the food, service, pace of play and venue were all great.

The golfing in and of itself is excellent. Both courses are beautiful and are always in excellent condition. If you can only play one round though, pay the extra money and play the River course. Many of its holes have absolutely stunning views of the Chester river / Chesapeake Bay that make the extra money seem well spent. There is lots of wildlife on the course to enjoy, from deer, to many kinds of birds, including a bald eagle we saw flying around multiple times one day, and I've even seen a wild turkey and fox. If that's not enough you can see downtown Baltimore on a clear day and a sign on one of the holes helps you to envision what it must have looked like on the evening our star spangled banner was written. The course is challenging, as it's longer than the Lakes course, forcing the player to think their way through versus just blasting away all the time, which for me adds to the experience. I've always appreciated how well conditioned the course is, from the tee boxes to the fairways and greens. Facilities are well kept and clean. The staff is welcoming and professional.I've played golf in many places around Maryland and beyond. Simply put, I would put this course up against any other, it's just that good.

Harbor Golf Links is one of the best public gold courses on Maryland's Eastern Shore. For you golf lovers, head on over there to enjoy your day on the links. The courses are challenging and fun. For your 19th hole, may I suggest a cold beer at one of the popular watering holes called Redeye's Dock Bar - only 15 minutes away on the Kent Narrows.

We played the lakes course during a recent visit to the area. My husband has played most of his life, and I am a novice who has just gotten into golfing. We both agreed that it was one of our favorite courses. Everything is well thought out, from the starters to the map of the holes. The course is beautiful and you feel like one with nature. We saw a ton of wildlife and read that the course works with the Audubon Society to protect habitat. All of the little touches paid off here. The course was in perfect condition and each hole was challenging for both me as a novice and my husband. It was the perfect experience. My husband also commented that they had the best food he's ever had on a golf course. We mentioned at the pro shop that we had a special connection to the course and they encouraged us to look around after our round. If we make it back to the area I'm sure we will want to return.

We had opportunity to play both the Lakes and River courses in September 2009. The weather was perfect and the courses both interesting and scenic with enough variety for golfers of all abilities. The ecological areas were teaming with beautiful plant and bird species, and being on the Chesapeake Bay was a treat. Pro shop was well stocked, short on items for Women though.
