Experience the beauty and challenge of a true Scottish-style links course. Combining native coastal rough,
rolling fairways, spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean, and undulating greens, this golf course is sure
to take your breath away.
Designed by Robert Trent "Bobby" Jones Jr., the back nine was originally opened in 1978. Then, in 1987,
the front nine was added to complete the full 18. Extensive renovations were completed in 2008,
where all 18 greens were stripped of the poa annua grass, bentgrass was added, and over 96 bunkers
were reconstructed. Overall, the course conditions were greatly improved and The Links at Bodega Harbour
is the best it's ever been.
From the rolling fairways of the front nine, with its carefully placed multi-tiered greens and pot bunkers, to the dramatic climax of the final three holes near the edge of the Pacific Ocean, coupled with fabulous ocean views from each of its 18 holes, you will see why it was previously rated as one of Northern California's top ten courses to play.
The Links at Bodega Harbour... “Northern California's Premier Coastal Golf Experience.”
Internationally recognized as a premier golf course, The Links at Bodega Harbour is a proud past recipient of a 4-Star Golf Digest ‘Best Places To Play.’
