What People Say

In summary

Bass River Golf Course is frequently praised for its beautiful and well-maintained layout, with challenging greens and a mix of long and short holes that provide an engaging golfing experience. The staff is generally regarded as friendly and helpful, contributing positively to the overall experience. However, some visitors have expressed concerns about the management of tee times and the enforcement of course rules, which can occasionally lead to delays and confusion. Additionally, there are mixed feelings about the policy regarding non-playing guests and the condition of certain facilities like bunkers and cart paths.

Brand new carts, greens were in good shape, unfortunately no cart girl for refreshments and couldn't really stop to grab anything due to a fear the ranger would ask us to keep up pace of play.. I'm not sure why but their signature hole isn't the one over the bay anymore.. Tough to end on 2 par 3s... Ill come back in hopes of a redesign.

One of my favorite courses on the Cape. The Rangers are so nice and helpful. They enforce pace of play but in the right way. They know golf is supposed to be fun and embrace the combination of golf traditions and that goal to have fun. Beautiful course

Enjoyed my round here. Staff were friendly and helpful. Place is pretty open so you can spray it around and not get too punished. Greens are small and firm, tough to hold. Course is on the shorter side so walking 18 wasnt too bad except some pretty steep hills in spots. Only knock is Bunkers had very little sand in them, and couple tee boxes were beat up pretty good. Definitely will play again.

Course was pretty and in great shape! But what would I know, just a female? Was spoken to by the starter (2 older women we were paired with who are avid golfers and my fiancé and myself). Was spoken to by the starter to keep up with the group in-front of us who were then upset when I (don’t play ever) almost hit them on the green 3 times, I understand golf etiquette and what not being a part of camps as a child but this place was nothing more than a pretty golf course. If you go on a weekend (even off season for cape) play fast and play loose, that’s preferred.

So..... I really liked this course. Its well maintained & the layout is great. I got paired up with 2 members, which sometimes can be intimidating they know the course and sometimes I've had members give me an attitude. I actually ended up having a great time with them. This would have 5 stars if it wasn't for the starter. He was letting people off when it wasn't time and held my group up waiting for another person to join. The issue is when that person showed up now it was 15min past the time instead of sending our group. Now the course got completely backed up and I waited on every single te…

Played two weekday days in September. Overall a great experience. Staff were all friendly. Course was in immaculate shape - challenging but forgiving. Cart paths could use some repair, here and there. Only negative comment is the carts have idiotic shutoff system to keep you from driving in an unauthorized area. Good idea but poor execution. Carts would sometimes shutoff unnecessarily.

Greens are in great shape, carts are relatively new and in great shape. Most fairways are wide open leading to a more forgiving game. Cart paths are in need of some attention

I recently played a round of golf at Bass River Golf course and it was truly an amazing experience. From start to finish, the course was in pristine condition, with beautifully manicured fairways, greens, and rough. The course layout was challenging yet fair, with a great mix of long and short holes that kept me on my toes throughout the round. But what really stood out to me was the level of service provided by the staff. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted warmly and made to feel welcome. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing me with everything I needed for an enjoya…

I’ve played some of the best courses in the world and this is one of my favorite ever. Just a totally unique layout with small challenging greens and unique holes. Catch it on a windy day and you’re in for a wild ride. A Donald Ross masterpiece.

I wish I could review their course. It looks beautiful from the clubhouse. But they wouldn’t even let me on the course unless I was playing. We’ve been getting together for a weekend of golf on the Cape for the last 20 years and have NEVER had an issue at any other course we’ve played, with just getting a cart to hang out with friends while they golfed. I can’t swing a club b/c of my back but I love hanging with old friends and just enjoying the company. No other course had any issue - I’m happy to pay - some asked for payment, some were cool and gave me the cart with no charge. Not Bass River…

Decent course, but don’t bring your kid just to ride — they won’t allow it unless the child is playing. No warning. So much for trying to introduce the next generation and grow the game. I guess they’d rather keep it a sport for old men.

I went to Bass River with my girlfriend who is inexperienced in golf and we still had an absolutely amazing time. To start, the very nice woman in the front of the pro shop helped us get onto the course as fast as possible all with an amazing attitude. The man in charge of the carts had an amazing attitude and helped us very much with our cart and equipment. Leading onto the beautiful first hole, there was a man who was helping us by explaining some of the holes on the course that were a little tricky for some members. We had an absolutely amazing time, took many many photos of the beautiful s…
