About Highland Links Golf Course

Highland Links Golf Course in North Truro is one of the most iconic and historically significant public golf experiences in all of New England. Perched on the dramatic bluffs of the Outer Cape within the Cape Cod National Seashore, the course offers sweeping Atlantic Ocean views that are simply unmatched at any other public golf facility in Massachusetts. The nine-hole layout plays across open, windswept moorland in the tradition of the oldest Scottish links courses, where the ocean horizon dominates every view and the prevailing wind is a constant factor in every shot selection. The course is managed by the National Park Service as part of the Cape Cod National Seashore, which limits development and preserves the natural character that makes it extraordinary. Highland Links is a genuine bucket-list experience for New England golfers.

History

Highland Links is one of the oldest golf courses in the United States, with roots tracing back to 1892 when it was established as the Highland Golf Links. The course was incorporated into Cape Cod National Seashore when the park was created in 1961, and management was transferred to the National Park Service. The NPS has preserved the course's historic character while maintaining it as a public golf facility, making it a rare intersection of American golf history and national park heritage.

Golfers making a pilgrimage to one of America's oldest and most naturally spectacular courses — a true New England links experience on the edge of the Atlantic.

Why Highland Links Golf Course is Hard to Book
Booking Difficulty
Very hard to book

Outer Cape summer tourism and the course's bucket-list reputation create intense July-August demand; the nine-hole format and limited capacity mean tee times are scarce at peak times.

Without automated alerts, you'd need to constantly refresh the booking site hoping to catch a cancellation. That's where TeeTimeGo comes in — we monitor the tee sheet and notify you the moment a slot opens.

Insider Booking Tips

Book summer tee times well in advance — this is a popular destination, not just a local course. Call directly or check their booking system as soon as your travel dates are set. Shoulder season (May, June, September) is far more accessible and often more enjoyable with calmer wind and less crowding.

Pro tip: Set a TeeTimeGo alert so you're notified the instant a cancellation opens — even at 2am.
