About this course

The Links at Crowbush Cove occupies a distinctive stretch of Prince Edward Island's northeastern coastline near Morell, roughly forty minutes from Charlottetown. Designed by Canadian architect Thomas McBroom and opened in 1994, the course was developed as part of a provincial tourism initiative to establish championship-caliber golf on the island. McBroom routed nine holes directly along the Gulf of St. Lawrence, making extensive use of the natural duneland and dramatic elevation changes that characterize this section of shoreline. The layout moves through varied terrain, with the oceanside holes offering exposed conditions and views across the water, while inland stretches navigate through wooded areas and rolling farmland. The dunes provide natural contours and strategic interest, particularly on holes where the routing follows the coastline. Several holes play along clifftop positions above the beach, and the wind off the Gulf typically influences club selection and strategy throughout the round. Crowbush Cove has hosted multiple Canadian Tour events and provincial championships since its opening, establishing itself as one of the premier public-access courses in Atlantic Canada. The facility operates as a resort course, drawing visitors during the island's golf season from late spring through autumn. The combination of seaside holes and McBroom's design approach—emphasizing playability alongside strategic challenge—gives the course a character distinct from the more traditional links layouts found elsewhere in the Maritimes.

Getting there

The journey to The Links at Crowbush Cove begins at Charlottetown Airport (YHG), a compact regional gateway roughly forty minutes west along the island's gently rolling interior. The drive northeast traces the Trans-Canada Highway before peeling off toward the Gulf shore, where farmland gives way to dune grass and the salt air of the Northumberland Strait announces your arrival. As you approach Morell and the hamlet of Lakeside, the landscape opens to reveal windswept headlands and the kind of raw, coastal beauty that feels lifted whole from the Scottish Highlands - a fitting threshold to one of Atlantic Canada's most celebrated links.
