Buenaventura Golf Course

Played 18 in just over 3 1/2 hours however we were not told the greens were recently air rated and we're still a bit sandy. Other wise nice course for the money,

Not a course I'd recommend to a visitor but worth the play if you can get a good price. Otherwise Olivas Links is the better choice for Ventura golf.

Short track so play frome the black tees. Lots of short wedges into the greens.

The course is great. The pace of play was extremely slow. I would recommend a starter at the first hole. And, a marshal would be nice to assist with the pace of play. The pro shop needs more ladies golf clothes. An ice machine near the 10th hole would help with ice for water bottles......just a thought. Overall, the it is a good course. And because we got a HOT DEAL on GolfNow, the rate was good. I don't think I would pay 55 to play here. I love GolfNow!

Enjoyed playing at Buena; have played it many times and enjoy it everytime. Too bad that it started raining before we finished the round, but still had a good time.

Played the Blacks (5826/68.3/117) in 3h, 30m on a sunny, breezy Monday afternoon in the low 70's for $20 including a cart. I walked the front to get some exercise and rode the back. Played with Brian, one of the assistant pro's, nice guy/good player. We rarely waited and played at a relaxed pace.

The greens putted poorly, medium slow and very bumpy. They have definitely NOT recovered after aeration. The back nine greens were smoother and quicker than the front nine greens were.

The fairways were decent, about half lush and half thin. Much better than the last time I played here.

The rough was mowed down kikuyu with generally good coverage.

The sand traps were excellent, nice, fine sand.

The tee boxes were also much improved from the last time I played here. There were many recently repaired divots.

Fun little course, not long but tight in places with many mature trees that really come into play on anything crooked. The layout has five par 3's & three par 5's. Good mixture of short, medium and longer playing par 4's. The customer service was excellent, the pro shop got us right out ahead of my tee time. No beverage cart, but they have an excellent snack shop with many options @ reasonable prices that I have enjoyed on many numerous trips here.

Played the Blacks (5826/68.3/117) in 4H, 40M with GDR23 & RGM2525 on a Teeoff.com special for $17.99. Partly cloudy, around 90 and humid, little breeze today. The course was very crowded mid day, we waited on almost every shot the entire round.

Easy course to walk, shorter, few hills, no long walks between tee boxes.

The tees were in good shape overall. Several had been recently resodded and almost all the divot damage was already properly maintained.

The fairways were very good overall, lush, nice lies. Gary & I are in agreement that they are as good as either of us have ever seen them here.

The kikuyu rough is not long but is long enough to grab your club on both full shots or chips. Lusher closer to the fairways/greens, thinner the more off the fairway you are.

The traps have thick sand and were decently maintained.

The greens putted decent, occasionally bumpy & medium speed. They held approach shots very well.

Fun, shorter course that is tougher than the scorecard would indicate because of trees, tightness and usually, the wind here. Courteous and efficient check-in, the customer service was excellent as usual. No range, they only have a couple of cages to warm up in. No GPS on the basic carts but the sprinklers are well marked.

Nice snack stand with good burgers and the drinks are good AD, so we had one before we teed off, at the turn and after the round on a very hot day. Nice conditions, and for $18 with a cart, hard to beat. Definitely recommended.

This course is always in good condition and close to home.

Played on a Friday morning; not too crowded, but we did have to wait behind a 4some who should not have been playing from the tips; we did finish in about 4 hours, but I prefer playing faster.
The course was in great condition from tee to green, and on the green.

This course is on the short side, but offers plenty of challenges for every level of golfer. Went on a Sunday and the pace of play was very slow. Because the course is short it may bring out the short hitters which may contribute to the slow pace. All in all, The course is always in good condition and I have a very good time.

course in great shape, a little busy for Monday- 5hrs

Excellent care and upkeep all the way thru...kind of a short course but if you're like me and just starting to walk the courses it's perfect to start to get used to walking.

Great place to play golf, the course very green and the greens are rolling true

Should have played better.

Kikua grass made chipping difficult

I come here during the summer to get away from the heat. The only downside to the course, no golf range for hitting balls. Aside from that, the pace of play is good most days. Greens are kept up, course plays long.

The course was in good condition from tee to green. It is a challenging course but not overly difficult for the average player. Some par 4's are short enough that a driver may not be needed to get into good position for a shot at the green. The only disappointment was the lack of a driving range.

Beautiful day. Course in good shape. Our 4 had to wait on every shot because there was a sixsome in front of us ...but there was a sevensome (!) behind us. Half way around, they tried to drop a single in ahead of us...but behind the 6. There was actually a marshal watching this circus who asked if we minded if the single played through, as if he would be going anywhere.

Course is in great shape, and greens are very pure. Pace was a little slow as we were behind walkers, but course is a good one to walk.
Will be back!

Golf course is in great shape! Course look easy but there are some challenging holes. Great course to walk. Staff is most friendly and happy they have a liquor license.

Easy course, very well kept. Play from the tips (black tees) and its a good time.

The course is in great shape and the staff is always friendly. Great value for the price and course.
