Blink Bonnie Golf Course
“One of Maine’s Hidden Gems”
-Park Morrison, in The Guide to Maine Golf Courses

Sorrento residents, both year-round and summer, agree that Blink Bonnie is a rare jewel of a golf course.  Established in 1916, this links-style 9-hole walking course has an open layout, bunkers guarding its velvet bentgrass greens, and beautiful views of Flanders Bay from every tee box.  Alternate tee box locations give golfers two distinct nine-hole experiences, the shorter one being the more difficult.

Course length/par:  Front nine: 2,840/36
Back nine: 2,640/34
Course rating/slope:  66.1/116

The summer association sponsors Friday morning scrambles open to all members, as well as lessons for children and adults both.  Visitors find that the course offers fun golf at low cost for golfers of all ability levels in a friendly environment.
