Bonaventure Golf Club

About
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.

There is a Falcon there.. Photo submitted by edwardfdez on 05/25/2014
Challenging course in good shape. Greens rolling true. Range is basically a lake so no way to dial in distances but good value overall.
Patient required
After not playing the course for more than 20 years, we began playing it about a month ago. It is in tremendous shape and it is a challenging test of Golf. My only availability is a Saturday afternoon, and even though it is high season here in South Florida for golf, the course does not have a ranger on it. Monitoring pace of play teeing off at 1:07 one would not think they would have trouble finishing their round but we literally finished in the dark at 6:30. Three groups on every hole people that are beginning golfers playing a difficult course and then there’s the etiquette of people that are not from South Florida that just do whatever they want not keeping in mind that there are people behind them. It is a great value for the money, but they need to do a better job of monitoring the pace of play out on the course it was a little frustrating.
Course has great layout!
If it wasn’t for the extremely slow pace of play, it would be a great course to play frequently. Staff is friendly, course has great layout and greens, tees and fairways are in good condition.
Bonaventure
Bonaventure… Much improved golf course… Very competitive ..massive water on almost every hole the best I’ve seen it in the 10 years I’ve been coming here.. definitely worth the trip from Fort Lauderdale
Course is in good condition
Overall the course is in good condition. Even if we played in 4hrs15mts. the foursome in front of us was slow as two holes were opened in front of them. In order to avoid this type of situation the presence of a Marshall would be beneficial.
Nice Turnaround
Played here many times over the years and I've seen its ups and downs. Course is in better shape , greens rolling true and in good shape . Pace of play on President's Day was very slow. Ranger didn't seem to be helpful. Cartgirl was no where to be found until 2 hours into the round. Overall for the price, it's a decent value. Keep it up and just improve on the pace of play and service.
Great course
Pleasantly surprised. Greens and fairways were good. Layout was excellent. Pace of play was good, a little over 4hrs. For the price this course is above average. I would definitely play it again.
Amazing
This is one of the best courses in the area. Very challenging and beautifully maintained.
Big improvement
They made a great improvement at that course...fairway and greens were very good...better than few years ago.
Great time
Course in great shape. Only problem was checking in. Had to wait before tee time to check in. Didn’t have enough time to warm up before tee time.
