Sonoma County's top track is the Sonoma Golf Club, a vintage layout circa 1928 revived by Japanese investors in the early '90s. Superbly conditioned, the club, with its sweeping mountain views, is a modern-day classic that served as a U.S. Open qualifying site earlier this year. Elsewhere in Sonoma is Bodega Harbour Golf Links, a fascinating design located near a fishing village that provided the stage set for Alfred Hitchcock's thriller, The Birds. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., the layout has a dual personality. The front nine, opened in 1987, is routed on hilly terrain, while the older back nine is mostly flat and open.
Wind is usually a factor.
So is fog. But when the wind clears the fog, there's a view of the Pacific from 16 of the 18 holes. Golf packages are marketed by nearby Bodega Bay Lodge as well as The Inn at the Tides. There's also an ocean view from all 18 holes. Pro Shop Golfstats Privacy Policy .
