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.

Challenging layout in poor condition
This is the second time playing this course in about 6 months and sadly, the conditions have turned from average to poor. The fairways are plastered with bald spots making these "mogul" fairways even tougher. It's like hitting a good tee shot and landing in a divot. The front 9 fairways are lined with very intimidating houses where a slice or hook tee shot will most certainly hit them so hit em straight...
Golf Bodega
Golf All good views awesome
Bring your own GPS, field markings good but you’ll need yardage.
No attention to details
No cooler, so no water.. No water on the course. Snack bar closed at the turn (around 5pm). No time to go to restaurant with groups paired pretty tight. Service there wasn’t all that fast, especially with orders taken downstairs when bar is upstairs. Just not thought out well.
Don even remember seeing ball washers.
It was a beautiful day to play golf though. Interesting layout, especially the back 9.
Always enjoy playing golf with an ocean view
We have always enjoyed Bodega, but this time we felt the course condition had really suffered. The greens were ok but very wet and spongy, the bunkers were very poorly maintained with very little sand and lots of weeds, we also felt some of the aprons around the greens were not very playable. It looks like they are expanding some of the false fronts so those areas were pretty inconsistent. Otherwise, the final three hole routing is always wonky and really don’t like the finishing hole. #15 would make a much better finish.
I wasn’t a fan of hole 16 and 17
I wasn’t fond of carrying my bag for 16 and 17 as I didn’t have a strap on my bag, so I only took a couple of clubs that I thought I would use. The greens were very tough, but expected this as we were warned they were working on them. Wonderful time, will be back!
Great golf day at Bodega
We played with two singles, had a great day. It’s been years since we play there. Absolutely loved the course, very challenging but lots of fun. We’ll be back
Have balls will travel !
Great value and many scenic holes if you lucky and play this course on a calm day enjoy the weather but if you get a day that cold and windy enjoy it anyway just needed a lot of balls and patience
Love the course and greens, hole 16 And 17 be ready for the challenge !
It was really windy and chilly. Bring warm layers! The last 3 holes are very strange! You have to leave your cart and bring your clubs and valuables to play 16&17. Easy holes so don’t need too many clubs. 18 has a strange layout if you’ve never played it before.
Beautiful Day for golf on the coast!
Great location and perfect weather for golf. The staff is friendly and helpful. The layout and conditions keep Bodega off my top 5 list in /Sonoma County. The greens were slow and the walking areas to and from the tee boxes are uneven and very tough on my old knees.
Beautiful views. Not easy
It was extremely windy so making playing it for the first time more challenging
Challenging and fun
The course was challenging and creative. However, it was extra winding today which was hard to play in.
Worth every penny!
Wonderful course on the northern ca coast. Such a beautiful gem of a course. Get on early and beat the winds! No course has better views north of SF! Go play!
