About
Buenaventura Golf Course originally opened in 1932 as a nine-hole course but closed in 2004 for major renovations. The course's original designer, William Bell, was consulted for the redesign. It was transformed into a more challenging course, but the 1930s design features were carefully preserved. The parkland layout may seem short at just over 6,000 yards but like many of the courses from that era, length is not as important as strategy and course management. The strategically placed bunkers have classic shapes that blend seamlessly into the natural environment as though they were carved by the river. The bunkers combined with the fast, sloping greens make the golf course a shot-maker's paradise. One of Buenaventura's most memorable holes is the par-4 13th. It is one of Bell's original designs, an interesting risk-reward opportunity with water along the right.

Fantastic
Only down side is there is no food or drink including no on course drinking fountains. But from tee to green including traps the course is outstanding. Highest recommendation for when its too hot to play elsewhere.
Exceptional Teeboxes, Fairways & Greens
This course is in excellent shape. Tee boxes in excellent shape, Fairways are incredible to hit off of and the greens are fast and well maintained with an extra nice chipping apron added. The Only negative is absolutely No drinking water anywhere on this course. Not near bathrooms, portable toilets, no drinking fountains not even a garden hose!
Except for the 2 temporary greens course was in nice condition and got a great deal on teeo
Lovely short course
Great people great vibes, brought a 12 pack and they let me drink the whole thing
Great greens and well maintained fairways
The playing conditions are in great shape. Tee boxes, fairways and the greens are excellent. However the greens No. 2 & 8 have been temporary since a long time and there is no ongoing work to make them functional at all. Hole No. 10 has also been shortened by shifting its Tee box due to some reasons.
The washrooms on the course are horrible. Extremely dirty, stinky and full of crap. Never seen anything like this anywhere else.
Disabled Greens
As always Buena is a fun course. Great staff from top to bottom !
It is very disappointing that our county/city has not provided funding for whole 2 and 8 greens. This is just unacceptable!
I’m sure everyone feels the same way.
And get the restaurant open. They are losing money!
Nice but slow play
The course is in pretty good shape but the pace of play has been slow. They were allowing 5 somes to play and that slowed down the pace along with the group in front of us.
FUN COURSE
The course is short with challenging greens. Everything was well maintained. Fairways were cut well, greens rolled true, and course was clean. On the downside, they are working on a few holes so the course was playing even shorter than it is. It would be nice to see gps on the carts and/or a course map on the back of the scorecard. However, if you want to squeeze in a round under 4 hours in the morning, this is fun place to play!
Nice but slow
We usually have a good time at Buena but unfortunately we were behind a clown that thought he should be on the tour. He would take 5 minutes to measure the shot then hit it 30 feet. He had 3 groups backed up behind him and it was clear for two holes in front of him. A number to call the clubhouse in situations like this would be nice.
Nice shorter course
The course is in pretty good shape. The 8th green should be good shortly.
Very enjoyable
Had a great time with my dad here two weeks ago. Greens were actually quite nice. They did what they could with the two greens that were destroyed due to rains - so temporary greens are not good. But otherwise, great layout and very fun. I would absolutely come back. Great value too.
