It's Storm Watchers Time Again at Bandon by the Sea!

Summer has given way to winter and her sullen skies, and waves are crashing over the boulders by the edge of the sea. The storm season is upon us and our storm watcher's rates as well! Bandon's coast line offers the perfect shoreline for your fall retreat. As these storms slam ashore, sometimes with winds topping 100 mph, huge waves smash against the rocks with breathtaking force sending spray skyward. The best place to weather the storm is in our ocean view suites and Bandon Bills Seafood Grill. The Key is to stick around long enough to explore the beaches after you have weathered the Storm. The conditions are perfect for beachcomber's who seek unique finds! The rare hand blown Japanese glass fishing floats are always the most sought after and have been known to wash ashore on Oregon's coastline.

Why Bandon Crossings Golf Course

A beautiful golf course near the Southern Oregon Coast, Bandon Crossings is a delightful change of pace from many coastal golf courses. It can be enjoyed either walking or with a power cart, and is maintained in excellent condition. It is home to "18 Unique Experiences". It boasts features akin to both links golf and park-like settings, as it takes it shape from the land itself. This unique 340 acre property boasts a beautiful, fun and challenging 6855 yard Dan Hixson Design. It is located just 5 miles south of Bandon on US Highway 101 at 87530 Dew Valley Lane.

Bandon Crossings follows the natural contours of ancient sand dunes as the play roams through links land, over streams, and into open coastal forest of firs, cedars, and madrones. In addition to a spectacular view, Bandon Crossings usually enjoys better weather than the predictions, and is often nicer than the weather in the town of Bandon or right along the coast. Summer or winter, this course has excellent drainage and firm fairways.

Bandon Crossings Golf Course is an 18 hole public golf facility in Bandon, Oregon. It is not affiliated with Bandon Dunes Golf Resort, Bandon Dunes, Pacific Dunes, Bandon Trails, or Old Macdonald golf courses, which are located about 10 miles north off Highway 101.

It's Back; It's Beauty and It's Bandon....Oregon Old Bandon Golf Links

One of Bandon's newest; and oldest golf course returns...

Impressionists call it beauty for the brush; pro's see it as a challenge; historians honor it as link to the past and a treasure for the future; families claim it's all about the fun.

As for Troy and Kim Russell, well; they call it home.

Old Bandon Golf Links 9-hole public course, a time-honored place with a brand new face.

There is a reason that in 1927, this special spot was chosen amidst the untapped countryside that caressed the Pacific coastline, a vision that lay where great beauty was beheld in any direction for as far as the eye could see, a vision that originated as Westmost Golf Course (and is still the western-most golf course in the lower 48 states), and for the last 15 years came to be known as Bandon Face Rock Golf Course.

Just look around and you will see what called to the original owners and why that same ambiance and scenery that cascaded echoes throughout history, still rings true today.

And as luck would have it, this magical place fell into the hands of the Russell family, who heard the call and felt the vision to create a spirited outdoor adventure, while still embracing the unique and cherished era of what some consider to be the golden age of golf course architecture.

It's all about golf, it's all about family, it's all about fun, all the time. Troy Russell resurrected the course to capture the old flavor and retain the old-fashion look. Russell has been affiliated with regarded names such as The British Open, The Masters, The US Open, The PGA National Championship, Presidents Cup and The Walker Cup, geographically spanning three continents.

Troy Russell was also instrumental in the development of Bandon Dunes into a world-class resort, home to the Curtis Cup in 2006.

Old Bandon Golf Links is host to a links-style experience that includes nine holes; in good form for seniors and families, but also sports a creek that serpentines 7 holes, and bunkers that create a challenge for even the most tenured golfer.

If you yearn for yesteryear, try a round with antique hickory golf clubs from the 1920's, or take advantage of this exclusive opportunity to try an 1890's set with authentic gutta percha balls.

The amenities are new but transcend tradition with Bocce ball, croquet, HD television, pool table, light fare and more...

Old Bandon Golf Links borders the beautiful, well-known and long-established tourist destination; Best Western's Inn at Face Rock Resort.

There are 9-holes and endless reasons to capture the moment of this season. Memberships to fit your needs. Ask out about a free round of golf for a member of your family.

Bandon Links;
Where the tests meet the green,
Where the west meets the dream
Where families come together
Where memories last forever.

And you know, that kind of feeling just might help your handicap.

Take your best shot, Old Bandon Golf Links, Rated G for Good Times, Good Friends and Great fun.

Check out the Washed Ashore project...

The "Washed Ashore" project aims to awaken the senses of people around the world to the global marine debris tragedy.

As an antidote to despair, and a way toward change, we pick up ocean plastics from Oregon beaches and make art! Our goal in "Washed Ashore" is to engage the public though creating powerful visual art, film, and music that educates and inspires action.

A feature-length documentary film, with an original score by singer/songwriter Holly Brook, will follow the progression of one community's engagement in collecting beach plastics and creating large-scale sculptures of the sea life most affected by the discarded marine debris.
Angela Pozzi teaching a workshop.

These towering, aesthetically striking sculptures of 'sea trash' will form a touring art exhibit and series of community workshops, as well as be the basis for an environmental arts curriculum.

Community members of all ages are working together to gather the beach plastics and construct the giant sculptures. The project will also create a huge, walk-through Plastic Gyre: a mobile-like room made with sea plastics that inspires contemplation and education about marine debris and the North Pacific Gyre.

The ultimate hope for "Washed Ashore" is global action. To create a stream of events, discussions and awareness that lead to active solutions. We believe that anyone, anywhere can make a difference!

In order for "Washed Ashore" to have a global impact, we are forming partnerships and seeking substantial funding from grants and donations to reach our goals. The project is sponsored by Artula Institute for Arts and Environmental Education, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

The Washed Ashore project is designed and directed by artist Angela Haseltine Pozzi. To view her work inspired by the sea, please visit SeathingsArt.com. Angela's work is on display at Art 101, seven miles South of Bandon. Just look for the purple building!
