The Links At Bodega Harbour

My buddy Jordan and I went to play this gorgeous golf course last Saturday. We had a tee time at 2.10. From the first hole we had a blast. The course was in fabulous conditions. The greens were rolling true. The views from this course are really unbelievable!!! I will definitely play this course again!!!! Thank you to everyone at the golf links at bodega bay for making our experience very memorable one !!!! ⛳️

Greens were sanded and tee boxes surrounded by tall grass and bunkers under construction and no restrooms except at the clubhouse

There is nothing bad I can say about this course. We teed off at 2pm. The weather was gorgeous and the views were spectacular!! The course was in fabulous shape. If you have never played here, you need to!!! Thanks again to everyone at the links at bodega bay!!⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️

be prepared for some difficult fairways and greens. Bunkers are magical due to set conditions from irrigation and several holes are very unusual such as hole 5, 16 and 17 so ask about then at the pro shop.

2. Incredibly difficult first 4 opening holes.

3. Best to tee off early as wind picks up around noon and increases

4. No sit down restaurant...and a good distance into town

For a bar and restaurant

5. Carts are new and good

6. Ample two putting greens

For the money and the views this place is worth it. A hassle to take your bag off the golf cart to push cart (provided) holes 16 + 17 then switch back to elec cart

+ play 18...

About every time I got up to my ball I had to stop and appreciate the view. Bright blue water in the harbor underneath a beautiful course on the cliffs. Be careful of the houses surrounding the course. Some white flowers could make your ball hard to find, but they seemed to be mostly cleared in the areas my playing partner and I hit into. Greens were receptive and ran true. Don’t think I saw a pitch mark on the greens all day, despite being soft enough to land plenty of club on. Black tees were pretty manageable, with some pretty long par 3s on the front that I was rewarded for taking 3 wood on. Hole 5 is very challenging. Read the sign posted, then read it again. I’ll have to come back another time to keep my ball in bounds. Did get a birdie on 16 after driving the green. Fun to get aggressive there after being cautious for most of the course due to the surrounding neighborhood.

Whole experience was excellent. Beginning with the starter who made us feel like this was our home course. Enjoyed the selection and the service quality at the snack bar. Of course the course played beautifully. A little windy when we played but excellent conditions. The greens the fairways. Looking forward to coming back soon

I was the first golfer out. On the front nine, exactly one pin was in the golf hole. That was on #4.

On a rainy and very foggy day- we all need an aim point to have a chance to go really low.... greens were in great shape, however!

It's on California coast, so the wind is going to be blowing. But, we were lucky and got in much of our round before it showed up. The course is challenging for me (20 handicaper), so I moved up to the white tees. That made the par 3's reasonable, even into the wind. My only complaint was with the start. We arrived about 45 minutes early and were ready to go, but the golf course said they had a policy that pre-paid (3rd party) golfers could not start early. So, we sat in the cart on the 1st tee for 30 minutes, even though no other players had arrived at the course. Just a silly policy.

We played Bodega after a series of “atmospheric rivers” had rolled through the area. Understandably, it was cart path only and there were quite a few soggy areas on the course. But that didn’t stop us from having a great time on this tough course. The opening 3 holes are a tough test to start your round. Get past those and then start enjoying the views and your round of golf on the coast. Hole 16 is always fun and beautiful. We play out at Bodega twice a year and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Definitely give Bodega a try if you’re up for a challenge.
