Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2013. Check Bonaventure Golf Club listing for the remaining opened 18 holes.
Bonaventure West is also known as the Resort Course. This 6189-yard course has less water than the East Course and one extra par 3 on each nine. This is a Charles Mahannah layout, showing this renowned golf course architect at his best.
It has wide fairways and undulating greens. The golf course has lots of tropical vegetation and inhabited by wild parrots, blue herons, snowy egrets, and many other forms of wildlife. Fairways are generous, but hole design makes low scoring a challenge.
The course is perfectly suited for golfers of all skill levels

Nice course for the money.
Clubhouse exterior very dated and needs a refresh.
Tee boxes, fairways, and new sand in traps in
good shape.
Need a course ranger!!! Slow foursome 2 holes behind.
Nice greens but grass seemed thick and slow.
Overall good value considering imperfections and plan to go back.

Challenging course
Greens are fast and in great shape but they keep the fairways quite long.
Overall one of the best price/quality ratio in the area.

The Water Fall is back in action!
I player with Steve, a new golfer here, and had a great time at Bonaventure. All the tee boxes are open and the Water Fall is going strong. All the fairways have new grass coming in for the snow birds. The greens are getting faster every day so stand by for some awesome putting.
