is it possible to cart Bandon Dunes, I have a bad knee (plus age 70)
Only if certified handicapped and then the cart is driven by a caddy. In twenty years of playing there, have only seen one player with a cart but it can happen. Need to arrange everything ahead of arrival I believe.
The roaring fire outside the resturant was unique. A wonderful place to end the day sharing stories and enjoying a nightcap or two. Haven't found that in my trios to Ireland or Scotland.
Just got back from Bandon Dunes. Played All the courses. Hard to pick a favorite, but if I must it would be Bandon Dunes. For dinning I recommend Pacific Grill, it's by far the best restaurant at the resort. I left Bandon Dunes resortwith this final thought! "I thought I dieded and woke up in golf heaven" can't wait to go back
Heading back to Bandon in September and I can't wait. Pacific Dunes is my favorite course in America.
Having been to Scotland several times and Ireland once, I can verify that Bandon Dunes is as close to that experience as you can get here in the U.S. My favorite saying is that going to Bandon is like going to Edinburgh, although Edinburgh is easier to get to!
I love the walks around the resort at night. My favorite is from the lodge to the inn. So serene and beautiful.
Those are great pictures that make a course extra special, I hope within the next few years to play the courses and expierence these wonders myself
A spectacular five days at one of the memorable places in all golfdom! Thank you Mike Keiser!
I was office manager for William Church, FAIA, Architect who designed the clubhouse and the rental housing at Bandon Dunes when it was first built. The thing that was most important to Bill in working with Bandon Dunes was to blend the buildings into the landscape and fauna of the location. Both Mr. Keiser and Mr. Church worked very hard to maintain the natural beauty of the site.
The natural beauty, the ocean views and the creative and challenging golf holes
I was born & raised in Coos Bay for 47 years before I moved to the Portland area. Need less to say, I have played all the courses at Bandon Dunes many times including the SHEEP RANCH. So, if you have a BUCKET LIST, this is a must for you, you will not regret it.
