“Only a little further up the road is The Island Golf Club, one of Ireland's unsung golf heroes, a classic, historic links that deserves to be on every visitors must play list”.
David Brice for PGATOUR.com (May 2009)
"Good Points - Most enjoyable day of golf I have ever had (I have 70 rounds recorded in 2008). I had never played a true links course, just the American versions...nothing compares.
Bad Points - Only bad point is that I live in Bermuda and cannot play the course again and again and again.
General Comments - I would suggest that anyone who gets a chance to play the course play it. Wonderful shape, the groundskeeper must truly love his work and appreciate what players want in a course.
In all honesty it was the best day of golf I ever had."

"This is one of the most enjoyable courses I have every played and certainly the best links I’ve visited. All holes are memorable; there is virtually no two holes the same. The high dunes give a unique appearance to the course. Holes 13-18 are particularly challenging.
After the golf, I recommend tasting the Guinness at this homely Club, which i look forward to returning to."
