Bonaventure Golf Club (formerly known as Bonaventure Country Club) is a classic Florida layout with holes routed through strands of mature palms and hardwoods, and around numerous water hazards and expansive bunkers. This course, designed by Joe Lee, is also called the Green Monster. Some people call it the Cascade Course because of the waterfall on the picturesque 160-yard, par-3 third. This signature hole has a waterfall that stretches across the front of the green.

Très amusant à jouer, des défis! Magnifique par 3 avec une chute semblable à St-Jean de Matha au Québec

Place à rejouer malgré le prix… 45$

5 Hour Round

Incredibly slow round. Took a little over 5 hours to complete 18 holes. I would like to play this course again but I’m not sure I want to experience another 5 hour round.

Much improved

The staff has done a great job with improving the conditions of the course. Will definitely play again. Bunkers still need work and rakes. Fairways in good shape and greens roll true.

Temps de jeu interminable

Nous avions deux quatuors qui semblaient penser que le terrain leur appartenait! Deux trous complètement vide devant eux et personne sur le terrain pour les aviser. 4.30 hres de jeu et nous avons dû cesser à cause de la noirceur sans terminer notre ronde!!!

Very wet conditions

First time playing the course was extremely wet. I usually play courses in the Midwest at about 6300 yards. Playing the 6200 yard tees in those conditions made the course play extremely long. Most every drive plugged or rolled out a yard or two. I looked at playing the seniors tee. But they were only 5400 yards. They could use another tee box. We quit after 9.
