In summary

Bonavista State Golf Course is appreciated for its scenic setting and well-maintained greens, making it a peaceful and enjoyable spot for golfers of varying skill levels. The course layout is generally praised, and the friendly staff and clubhouse amenities add to the positive experience. However, some visitors have noted issues with course maintenance, such as overgrown roughs and neglected sand traps, and the cash-only policy and lack of clear signage can be inconvenient.

Ya, good course for your money’s worth. Greens are decent but the rough is outta control. Keep an eye on your ball or stay in the fairway. Little pro shop and restaurant/bar with indoor/outdoor seating. Information at the course is different than online. Cash only. Haven’t played golf in the states in a few years but I noticed a serious lack of people fixing their ball marks on the green.

No one around. Honor system payment. (Money under rock). Course in rough shape. No markers. Holes not numbered. Couldn't even find 8th hole. Maybe because it's october??

Bonavista is a hidden gem! It’s only a 9 hole course but it is in beautiful condition. The greens are nice and smooth and fairways are looking great! They removed some unwanted trees and bushes and planted new this year so it’s looking so fresh. I always feel at peace when I come play here! The course is great and the people are just as awesome!

Had a great day of golf. Perfect course to do a family golf day with Grandma. We didn't feel rushed. Greens and carts are well taken care of and staff was very friendly.

This course is getting four stars because it has a decent layout and was in respectable condition. I played on a Saturday afternoon at 1:30 and did not wait once. Tee boxes could use some work but for the price it's about what I expected. I'd go back.

Nice course for beginners, might be too easy for an intermediate or advanced golfer. Beautiful area. Could use a little more attention to mowing. Greens are fast!

Sad, sad, sad. This used to be the best 9 hole course in the region. It is totally overgrown with clover, the sand traps are destroyed and non-functional, and it's getting burned out. Clearly they vendors can't manage this and need to give it up before it is ruined forever.

The golf course is home to two high school teams. Great nine hole course whether you are a kid just starting out or a guy still trying to figure the game out.
