The Links At Bodega Harbour
Rating Snapshot
About
The Links at Bodega Harbour is conveniently situated along the Sonoma County Coast, only an hour from San Francisco and two hours from Sacramento. Its location perched above the Pacific also provides stunning ocean views. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr.in 1978, the back nine was the original course before the front nine was added nine years later. Jones designed a traditional Scottish links layout complete with rolling fairways and fast, undulating greens. There are almost 100 bunkers strategically situated throughout as well as thick patches of native coastal rough that are just waiting to swallow even slightly errant shots. The golf course is not long but it requires both skill and strategy. The final three holes are not only the most challenging, they also boast the most breathtaking views.

Amazing views
Came up to enjoy a family day, and the course with its views didn't disappoint. Was totally overcast and cold but the backdrop to every hole was worth the drive. As everyone mentioned the last few holes right off the beach were pretty amazing.
Great course
The course has everything; layout, views and friendly staff. Amazing experience..
Challenges All Around
A beautiful day after Thanksgiving and the weather could not have been more accommodating for a mid-day tee-time (11:50 AM). Being only the second time I have played the course, I had completely forgotten how challenging the course is - bringing out all the clubs in the bag. If you're playing the blue tees, be ready for one of the most challenging 18 holes of golf you'll find in the Northern California Bay Area

Super quirky design, incredible value
I have yet to play a course that even remotely resembles this one. At times it's mountainous, at times you feel like you're deep in a valley, most holes you can see the ocean, some holes you're literally in a neighborhood. It's a must play due to the great value, good conditions, the insane 15th-18th holes, and the fact that there is really no other course like it. You'll leave dumbfounded and smiling.

Perfect Day
Had one of those rare days at Bodega Bay with sunshine, no wind and the fog only rolled in on the 18th hole. Greens were fast and well groomed. Tee boxes needed some work as did parts of the fairways. The layout is fun, and pace of play was just ok. I will be back.

Great course.
Played here before, however was a beginner. Caveat got a hot deal. This course is a beast . Decide when your driver needs to sit in the corner. Consult your fellow players if first time. If you have the luxury of time and are riding a cart scoot up to see some holes( esp no 5 I think) have fun. U can play this course for a fraction of pebble and it's real. Side note I put this with half moon bay as simply awesome.
u4190267, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing The Links At Bodega Harbour.
