Top user photos from courses featured in our 2018 Best-of Lists
Many of the top golf courses featured in our "best of" lists this year are also quite picturesque.
It's hard to concentrate on the golf swing when there's an ocean wave crashing, a boat floating by or a mountain in the backdrop. These moments call for a picture. Cell phone cameras have made it easier for our reviewers to share those moments with us. Often, the best reviews on Golf Advisor are the ones that include photos.
To say 'thank you' to our army of photographers, we've collected user photos that showcase a number of courses recognized in our state and national "best of" lists. Keep those pictures coming in 2019!
