Bonaventure Country Club - West Course

Played Saturday at 2pm. 3 foursomes lined up at every tee. 3 and a half hours for 9 holes. Ended up playing the front 9 twice and finished at 630pm in the dark. Ranger was useless.

If you like long par 4s and 5s along with medium par 4s that have to circumnavigate large ponds with angled shots into greens, this is your course. I’m a 14 handicap and found Bonaventure to be very challenging especially with my game not working as well as normal. Course conditions were scruffy but playable. Driving range needs tons of work.

Honestly, was impressed with the greens and fairways.

Tee times seem to be every 7 min which makes tee times available at a good price but makes pace of place slow

The restaurant needs to be opened up. It being closed takes away from the total Golf experience. If the restaurant was opened up, it would really turn the business of the golf course around while I was there. I heard a lot of people complaining about the restaurant not being open.

Fairways and rough cut to short. Pace of play was very good.

Course Condition was very good have played here before and it is very much improved. Very nice employee in the pro shop If you played here before and weren’t going to go back because of the conditions you need to see it now. Pace of play not so good.,

They load up members on the tee sheet for tee times that are not available to the public. This alone would be fine, but they do it so there is only 5 minutes between tee times (I doubt golf now would allow this). Do not be surprised if your tee time is bumped back 20 minutes if they just squeeze 4 groups off in front of you in 15 minutes. There will always be a back up on the first hole

Played today. This course is hands down the worst golf course I've ever played on. $80 to play on dead grass and weeds. No beverage cart. No place to buy a sandwich or snack at the turn. This course reminds me of what Heron Bay looked like 3 years AFTER it closed. I don't consider myself to be a golf snob either. I play aot of different courses in South Florida all year round, and again, this is a DOG TRACK! Many other choices for the same $$ or less.

Our group got backed up on hole 3 (par 3). 4 groups waiting ahead of us. We waited on every shot after that. 5 hour round!😟

Course was not boring at all lots of dog legs, sand, waterfalls water, nice layout long part fives challenging part threes just a nice day

Course in good shape. Pace of play slow. No amenities at course.
