The Links At Bodega Harbour
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.

Thursday - Links at Bodega
Frequently play that course!
Bodega is awesome!
We like this course very much. Quite challenging, lots of interesting landscape/setups, good views, and nice staffs. It is a Cinnabar near a beach. Excellent pace of playing. We will invite more friends and come back later!
Great day at Bodega
Good day with the guys and the course was in great condition with little wind and it was about 72 degrees which was perfect.
Fairways in great shape and greens start out a little slow and get faster as the day goes. Bunkers have real sand so that’s a nice thing to swing through the ball.
Really not for beginners as we had to wait a bit for the group ahead. Again, this course is a bit challenging.
Overall, perfect day out at Bodega.
Pace of Play
There were groups of 5/6 ahead of us slowing the pace of play looking for lost balls. The group behind us hit into us , and rolled up while we teed of because they were impatient with the pace ahead.
Greens were sanded and tee boxes surrounded by tall grass and bunkers under construction and no restrooms except at the clubhouse
Beautiful day at bodega bay
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 !!!! ⛳️
Beautiful day in bodega bay
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!!⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️
unique features
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.
No driving range...only cages...
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...
Excellent service. Great course
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
Great Views
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.
