Buenaventura Golf Course
Originally designed by legendary golf course architect William Park Bell in 1932, Buenaventura attracted golfers until it closed in May 2004, for renovation. After a $6.5 million dollar renovation, including complete re-routing of the golf course and new playing surfaces, Buenaventura Golf Course opened in March of 2005. With large bent grass greens, coupled with emerald green rye grass fairways, Buenaventura is one of the finest municipal courses in the Southland. With subtle undulations and contours, all the greens have been re-sculpted using classic Bell designs. Beautiful mature trees line Buenaventura’s pristine fairways, while white sand bunkers guard the greens.
The new design enhances the woodlands feel that people loved so much about the old Buenaventura. The hazards look like they were not merely manufactured, but rather discovered in the landscape. Among the many new considerations for the new course, safety, playability, strategy and variety all played key rolls in the development of the new design.
Buenaventura is located off the 101 freeway 40 minutes north of Los Angeles, and 30 minutes south of Santa Barbara.

this course is too short to be challenging but it’s a lot of fun, especially the reachable par 5s. havent had an eagle yet but have had countless eagle putts, 3 of which lipped out.
