Although it is now a beautiful par 35 course, it was once an 18-hole course until the devastating flood of 1997. Unable to re-establish the full course, it was transformed into a scenic 9-hole course and a short-distance 9-hole kids course, Mullally Little Links.

A COURSE FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!

Lincoln Golf Course has become the ideal course for the whole family. It has everything needed for a great game of golf, for players of all ages and skill levels. Enjoy the course and be a part of our rich history.
