Bay Pointe Country Club
About
Bay Pointe Country Club was known as Wareham Country Club when it first opened in 1964 up until 1988 when it underwent a major renovation, including the construction of the island green seventh hole, which is the golf course's signature. The club underwent yet another multi-million dollar renovation in 2012 when the club changed ownership. In the most recent renovation, hundreds of extraneous trees were cleared from the fairways in order to get it back into pristine condition. Although it's a seemingly short layout at just over 6,200 yards from the back tees, it actually plays much longer. The first two holes are laid across the hilliest portion of the terrain. Though you have a challenging start, the rest of the Bay Pointe golf course eases into a gentler landscape.

Good day at Bay Pointe
The course was in great shape for a public course. Paid the hot value price so the value was excellent. The greens on the front nine were still coming in from aeration, but the back were fine. Played the blue tees which added length. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Will return again.
Bay Point
Well folks as a long time resident of Bourne, I have trouble with the key info, constructed in 1964. Funny, I remember this course being a sandpit I would go four wheeling in the late 80's. So to set the record straight lets say this course was not built in 1964, rather 1994. I just think it a typo.
Great place to golf, great course not too hard not too easy but indeed just right. I highly reccomend this course to all new or pro.
Great course
Loved this course. Well taken care of. Challenging but not hard. Island green is cool. Would def go back.
Nice little course
Old style course, tight fairways and dog-legs with enough hills to make it interesting.
Must have tremendous drainage as I played in the rain after a terrible winter that has left many course in the area a swamp but not Bay Pointe.
Greens were in terrific shape, smooth and fast even in the rain.
Will definitely play again.
PREMIERE???
They bill this as the Cape's premiere golf course. Dillusions of grandure. Signage and yardage markers very poor. Greens were not that good faiways so so and the tees mostly dirt. The layout is very good and picturesque and the pace was great. I wouldn't bother to go back
Nice course with a Cape feel
Was very pleasantly surprised that they let me and my brother play in mid-January. Despite a rather cold day, we were able to play 18 holes and the course was in great shape considering it is mid-winter. There are a few very long par 4's (430 yards and over) that essentially play as par 5's, but those are countered with some shorter easier holes for a nice balance. The course is lined with the scrub pines that you find on Cape Cod giving it a great 'beach-forest' type feel. If it was in this kind of condition in January I can wait to try it again when the weather is warmer!
Nice Course to Play
The Red tee's are the front tips of the Whites. Course was very long for my partner. Besides for the length she found it to be a fun course to play. The fairways were clean (no leaves) the greens were in very good shape. Putts were true. Best course I have played for this money. GolfNow really out did themselves with this deal. If you get a chance to use the Hot Deal you will not be disappointed. If you are there on a Sunday Stop at the bar they have a wonderful line up of Football Specials.
It is long for the average lady golfer.
The course was in great shape and has long holes. Great for a long ball hitter.
Bay Point Club on Cape Cod Onset, Ma.
Due to 8:00am start, I had the course to myself... no waiting at all. I played two days and each time I totally enjoyed myself. # 1 was the most challenging due to not knowing what to expect ... but I can't wait till next time in area to play this course again. Everyone should play Bay Point Club at least once!
A nice course with plenty of challenge for my skills.
I am a once a week golfer and I found the course to be a good test of my skills. I tend to shoot in the low 90's and was comfortable playing here. I will go back.
The pace of play was amazing!!!
Under 3 hours for 18 holes. Several (3) 200 yard+ par 3's from the back tees. Greens were not super fast, but they rolled true and seemed consistent. Overall a pretty straight forward course with the possibility of shooting a low score to boost the ego! Great value for the price!
the course is in good condition. the greens are average, not very fast.
I enjoyed the course and will probably play there again
Excellent value for the money.
Average public course, challenging, nice track. In average condition. Not too much play the day we played. Played 18 holes in 3 1/2 hours. Greens were nice and rolled true. Need better signs, etc. as this was our first time playing course !
This course has a true island hole...
The fairways are in great condition however some greens and tee boxes need attention. It's a hilly course with a lot of blind shots so if its your first time out it can be challenging. The club house is basically a huge bar with keno which was a big plus. The sandwiches were all good we really enjoyed our round. We will definitely go back.
bay pointe
greens discolored but did not matter putts rolled true.
Good deal, good conditions, good time.
The GolfNow deal is worth the trip. Went on a Sunday @ 11, no waiting on the 1st tee. Recent heat wave over 90 for a week had a negative impact on the greens, some spots were pretty bare, but the ball rolled true and not too slow. If not for the greens I would have given 5 stars. Try the hotdogs at the turn, jumbo size, grilled and tasty.
Interesting course
It's a pretty fun little track. The first time I played here I didn't really like it, but mostly because its a tough course and I had no advanced knowledge. I learn courses quick, so now that I've played it 3 times I am starting to really enjoy it. I love the fact that there are so many unique holes and a variety of different holes. You have a 85 yard par 3 shot to an island green, the rest of the par 3's are long. From the blue tees you've got five 185-230 yard par 3's. From the whites they are like 165-220. I like that. It separates the good players from the bad. The course also features a nice variety of par 4 holes. There are 2 or 3 shorter, drive able par 4's. But then you have a few long beastly par 4's that actually turn into par 5' s for the ladies. I believe numbers 2, 5 and 18 are the toughest par 4 holes. The par 5's are pretty challenging with some nice risk/reward decisions. I love number 17, it's a razor sharp dog leg left.. You have to choose between playing safe and hitting a long iron or hybrid/wood which makes it a 3 shot par 5, or whipping out the driver and trying to clear the trees and cut the corner and leave yourself a short iron approach shot and subsequent eagle opportunity. Thats what i did but i hit a bomb that ran right through the fairway and left me a pretty impossible shot in a little hole from about 145 out. I had to avoid a bunker and some branches in front of me with a really low shot so I tried to punch it with a 4 iron and run it up to the green but I hooked it a bit and wound up short of the green in the rough. I ended up making par. I found that I rarely used my 7 and 8 iron here. You end up with a lot of longer or shorter irons. Not a ton of 140 - 160 type shots. There are some elevated tees and some nice chances to really bomb the driver. The worst thing about the course is the rough is brutal! Seriously some of the toughest roughIi have played. Much harder than Sandwich Hollows. Also there is a ton of undulation, which can often leave you with a tough stance and lie, even after a gorgeous drive. In particular the first couple of holes. I definitely recommend Bay Pointe. Bring your A-game and your bug spray, and have fun!.
Nice value, good course
Course was in very good condition. The staff and bar/grille were great. Fairly challenging, staying out of the rough helps your score quite a bit. Five par 3's in the 180-200+ yd range: I would prefer they mixed those up a bit more. Fairly hilly with a few blind shots to heighten the level of play required. All in all a very good experience. The course was pretty empty and flew threw 18 in about 3 hours. Almost like playing on a private tract.
Challenging course with some very interesting holes.
Would play again to attempt a better score now that I know what to expect.
My wife and I played and found the course to be a fair challenge.
Played on Fri 6/21/13 and found the course to be in good shape and the greens rolled good . I am an 18 handicap and my wife shoots in the 105 - 110 range. This was our first time playing Bay Point and felt it was a fair challange. We enjoyed the course and would return to play again.

Dear Gungadin,
Bay Pointe was built in 1964, formerly the Wareham Golf Course. Hole #12 which is #3 now was lined with tall pine trees and a hill along the left side from the tee right up to the green. Behind the trees was the sand pit. The gentlemen that bought the golf course from the town in the late 80's knocked all the trees and the hill then proceeded to build condos where the sand pit use to be.How do I know this? I was member in 1978 and I remember hearing the dirt bikes when playing that hole. The funny thing is is that the golfers knew that there was a sand pit there but the the kids riding their dirt bikes did not know there was a golf course. So the information is correct on when the The Bay Pointe Club (Wareham Golf Course) was built.
Dear Gungadinn,
I have also been a long time resident of Bourne, graduated from Bourne High in 1985 and I was a member at the Wareham Golf Course back in 1978 which is now called Bay Pointe. I have been the Golf Professional here now for 13 years so I am very aware of the sand pit. Just a little history regarding Bay Pointe. Back in 1990, the gentleman that bought Wareham Golf Course changed the 12th hole which is now number 3. He proceeded to build the condos in which changed the whole design of whole number 3, where you use to ride your bike. I am very familiar with the sand pit because when I use to play Wareham as a kid, I would hear the dirt bikes in sand the pit when playing.The Golf Course was built in 1964, designed by Geoffrey Cornish. I hope you enjoyed your day with us and Thank you for playing Bay Pointe. Sincerely, Tom Tobey, PGA Professional, The Bay Pointe Club.
