The Links at Spruce Grove

The Links at Spruce Grove is an 18-hole, par-72 public championship course situated just west of Edmonton in Spruce Grove, Alberta. Designed by Bill Robinson, John F. Robinson, and Geoffrey Cornish, and opened in 1983, it stretches to 6,794 yards from the tips and has established itself as one of the Edmonton region's more substantial public tests.

The layout pairs tree-lined fairways with varied terrain and large bentgrass greens. Water hazards factor into play on six holes, while 70 sand traps are distributed throughout the course — a bunker count that rewards accuracy off the tee and into the greens. Eight tee-box options allow players of different abilities to find a yardage that suits their game, making the course genuinely playable at multiple levels without sacrificing the challenge that longer hitters seek from the back tees.

Spruce Grove sits roughly 15 minutes west of central Edmonton along Highway 16, making The Links a practical choice for Edmonton-area visitors looking for a full-length public round without venturing far from the city. The course suits mid-handicappers who want a genuine test and lower-handicap players who appreciate strategic bunkering and water carries.
