Bonaventure Golf Club

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.

I played The front nine Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. The weather in south Florida is fantastic along with this golf course.

The approach’s are well maintained and greens are fast. I didn’t see the Alligator at hole # 2 but know he’s out there somewhere.

Every hole is different, very nice layout. Great amount of water with 6 of last 8 having water as well as the front. Great par 3 over the waterfall! We had a windy day, and it was a challenge. We will be back!

Bonaventure team are doing a good job in bringing back the condition well. The majority of the greens are good as are the fairways. The staff are generally friendly. The tee boxes still need work but overall is is much better than a year ago,

It’s been a few years since I’ve played this course because the conditions were so bad. Under new management and a lot of improvements. For one I am so happy to see the waterfall on hole #3 back working . Such a beautiful hole. All the greens are good and they roll true. Some bare spots on some of the tee boxes, but not bad at all. I would definitely play here again. Starters and the rest of the staff were very friendly and accommodating

I like play at this course last week an I return tomorow 24 January 2024

Nice course. I enjoyed it. It was slow tho. No ranger. No cart girl either.

This course is 100% better than last year. Many of the greens were terrible last year, but only about 3 greens had small repairable spots. It would help if ALL sand traps had at least one rake & preferably 2. The biggest fault is the slow pace of some groups who are too selfish to allow you to play through. The course Marshals are rarely seen and do little if anything to speed up play ie. force slow groups to allow others to play through.

Nice to see the course getting back in shape.Hope they keep getting better.

The course was very wet which made it play very long. I played the white tees about 6200 yards the course could probably use a set of hybrid tees the next set of tees was 5600 yards I hit several approach shots to front pins that plugged or only took one bounce the greens were smooth and true.

I liked the layout water came in to play on a lot of holes

I have played this course every winter for the last 4 years. When we played last year they told us that a new owner took over and things will get better, and it did. Greens have grass on them and fairways are green and growing.

Traps still need attention and need rakes.

Overall a great course getting better.

My first time playing this course was in 1990 when John Jacob’s golf school was here. The golf course was in pristine condition. It has greatly deteriorated over time.

Golf needs bold owners like you and your improvements will definitely bring your old Clients back and, will harness great interest amongst the golfing community.

Wishing you long lasting success! 🔜 😊

Verry good place for play golf, staff smart, condition good.
