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.

Nice Course
I looked at other courses in the area as this was my first visit to Cape Cod. For what I wanted to spend and the distance I was willing to travel from my accommodations - - this course fit. The staff was great. The course was in nice condition during mid-June. Some tricky holes but overall a pleasant experience. The course is fair and the greens don't beat you up with undulations. A nice track for a mid-handicapper.
Great round wide open good value great layout!
Played at 1pm on a weekday. Was a single in a cart. Wide open. Only had to play through a 2-some and a 4-some.
Conditions were great for a cheap public course. Thanks again to Bay Pointe and GolfNow for a great round! I rarely have good experiences golfing when I am home in MA it seems like I have to be in another (cheaper) part of the country to get to play nice courses w/cart for anywhere close to this price so once again thanks to Bay Pointe and GolfNow excellent experience and I will return.
Bay Pointe has been improved
Greens in good shape. Good variety of uphill, downhill and sidehill lies. Some of the par 4's a bit on the short side.
A great deal at the Golf Now price.
A little on the short side. Play from the blues for the best challenge.
Very little water to worry about, but plenty of bunkers guarding the greens. Quite hilly. Some of the par 4s are very short and should be 3s. A great play overall.
Challenging lies, good conditions, good value
Played with the golf now rate. For the price the course was well worth it. Seemed like we had the course to ourselves on a sunday afternoon. The greens weren't perfect but they were overall in good shape and consistent. The many uphill holes and hilly conditions of the course made the distance seem longer than it was and difficult to score well in some cases. The first hole was a dog leg left par 5. I hit a solid drive a little right of my target and wound up with a uphill lie 2 ft above my feet in the middle of the fairway! Had a few of these throughout the round that hurt my score a bit more than usual. Certainly worth the value especially if the greens clean up a bit more.
Getting there.....
This course is finally getting the attention it deserves. It has for the last bunch of years been neglected. Last year it was purchased by a new group. I have been told they have put $1,000,000 into the course so far. It shows, it plays great. I was so impressed that I am actually thinking of joining. There is still work to do. My observations were, needs better tee signage, needs signage as to where next hole is located (some holes were a guess), needs some benches near tee boxes, also need to have drinking water available. Lastly some of the traps need more sand. These items I mentioned are really minor compared to the major work that has already been done. Keep it going.......
Great Undulation
They were clearly getting ready for a tournament of some sort for the weekend as every hole had sprinklers on at about the 200 yard marker off the tee. The greens had been aerated as well and
were a little rough but all in all the course was a great change for someone who lives in Tampa with no hills at all. I would pay the same price as golfnow gave me but not anymore until the aeration was clear and they had the sprinklers off.
Better than last time
Substantial improvements have been made since we last played. Maybe under new ownership? Ladies slope rating is difficult, and senior tees would be welcomed.
Greens were in good shape for so early in the season
Course was in good shape for April. Greens were fast
tight course
this course has a lot of uphill holes, so the course plays a lot longer than the yardage on the card. some narrow fairways=tight tee shots.got a great deal from golfnow.
Course was great to play difficult but not to extremes
No starter so did not know when to tee off.
Tee time of 11:04 but only one threesome teed off between 10:15 and 10:45 yet we were not allowed to tee off early.
Other than that the staff and members we met on the course were friendly and accommodating.
Short but challenging course.
Got out as a single and played 18 in under 2:30 hr. The few golfers ahead of me were quick to let me play through. Course was in good condition.
