Course Highlights
The course layout consistently impresses with challenging dog legs, water features, and demanding par threes that keep every round engaging. Friendly pro shop staff and noticeably improved course conditions reward returning golfers who haven't visited recently.

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.

Very nice layout, bad conditions

Thought the course had a very nice layout. If the conditions were decent, I would have given it 5 starts but the greens had large bare spots covered in sand covered in fertilizer and the tee boxes were very rough. Some with no grass whatsoever. Course seems to have run out of money for maintenance or something but it needs a lot of work. But like I said the layout is very nice and was probably a top notch course in it's day. Should reduce green fees to about $40 or less.

Poor Condition

This course was in horrendous shape. The greens were slow, full of weeds, and lots of sand. No sand to repair divots and the pace of play was painfully slow. Needless to say, I will not be coming back here.

So long Bonaventure

I have played this course several times over the years. I have watched a once great course slowly decline to one that is no longer worth playing. Tee boxes and greens are in terrible shape. Green colored sand is used to cover it up. The course needs water and attention badly. But it looks as though management is content to let it go down. Sad. Look elsewhere.

Would play here again had a great time. Greens definitely need some work and I believe effort is being made to correct the situation.

Herrendous

Got to course and was told one hour wait due to golf carts needing to be charged. Asked to hit balls and was told no balls because they did not have staff to get the balls out of the water.

Needs to close

Bunkers where aful. Full of debri and never raked

Greens had sand to cover bare spots

Tee boxes where worse

Obviously No one from GolfNow has checked on this course. It should not be called a course
