About
Buenaventura Golf Course originally opened in 1932 as a nine-hole course but closed in 2004 for major renovations. The course's original designer, William Bell, was consulted for the redesign. It was transformed into a more challenging course, but the 1930s design features were carefully preserved. The parkland layout may seem short at just over 6,000 yards but like many of the courses from that era, length is not as important as strategy and course management. The strategically placed bunkers have classic shapes that blend seamlessly into the natural environment as though they were carved by the river. The bunkers combined with the fast, sloping greens make the golf course a shot-maker's paradise. One of Buenaventura's most memorable holes is the par-4 13th. It is one of Bell's original designs, an interesting risk-reward opportunity with water along the right.

Feels like you're at the park
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.
Love this course
Great place to play golf, the course very green and the greens are rolling true
Fun Course
Should have played better.
Kikua grass made chipping difficult
Great course during the summer
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 great shape.
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.
a sevensome...really?
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.
Excellent day
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!
Great course but not as easy as golfers think!
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.
course in great shape
The course is in great shape and the staff is always friendly. Great value for the price and course.
Over priced
not worth the price..course is too plain and in poor condition for $65
Good course for the money
Greens are nice however fairways could use some work. Great day overall. Will play again
Nice Course
I had a great time playing this course. It provides a fun challenge.
Great value on a beautiful and interesting layout!
Course conditions were very good. Fairways were comfortable for ball striking, being firm but with the "right" amount of cushion underneath the ball.
Layout is interesting and varied- very good risk/reward situations and excellent for a variety of skill levels to play together with appropriate tees for all.
I feel lucky to live nearby and plan to play here regularly.
Fun course
Nicely kept up older facility. Small pro shop and restaurant. No driving range. Would happily play again.
Nicely maintained, good course for working on short and mid-range game.
Most greens are reachable w/ good tee shot and middle iron - nice for players who don't like a tee & 2 fairway shots to green. Course is well maintained, greens are nicely contoured, traps at greens need to be avoided.
Thursday at Buenaventura
Started as single. course in good shape. front nine moved quickly. back nine a little sticky, but overall a great day.
Comfortable Inland course
Shorter length old style course. Great driving course but the difficulty lies in the greens. Many hidden pin positions and mounding atound the greens. Bring your putter A game.
