}}Oakhurst Links is a historic golf course located at White Sulphur Springs, Greenbrier County, West Virginia. It is a nine-hole course conceived in 1884, in a design based upon traditional Scottish design elements. The first competition at Oakhurst was held in 1888.[2]

Located on the grounds is course developer Russell W. Montague's home which served as the Oakhurst Links Clubhouse. It was built about 1880, and is a two-story "I house" plan dwelling with sparse Colonial Revival stylistic elements. The property was operated as a golf course until 1912, when the property reverted to pasture. In 1994, a restoration effort was launched for the course.[3] Modern players typically dress in period clothes and use hickory-shafted clubs and gutta-percha balls driven from tees fashioned from sand as was done before the wooden tee was invented.[2][4]

The course was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
