Bonville Golf Resort (Coffs Harbour - Australia)

[TheTrueReview]

 

This course has been voted one of the most beautiful in Australia and is starting to gain a mecca status amongst East coast golfers in Australia. I haven't played there yet but look forward to the day I when I do. The course winds its way through rainforest and the way the layout is designed, you hardly see another golfer during your round.

 

This is a blurb from their website.

 

The Par 72 championship course rises and dips through elegant strands of rainforest, each fairway isolated and private from the next. The great appeal lies in the fact that it will stimulate and challenge golfers of every standard.

 

The only disturbance as you meander along in the whisper-quiet electric carts might be wildlife scuttling into the bushes or birds singing in the treetops. Look closely into those same treetops and you might spot a family of koalas feasting on the leaves of the Blackbutt, Ironbark and Tallowwood trees.

 

Indeed Bonville is a natural sanctuary for a wide range of native species including the large black cockatoos, parakeets, water dragons and magnificent goannas. In the evening, swamp wallabies and small kangaroos graze on the light rough.

Making my home in Phoenix, AZ I can't complain about lack of good golf courses, however, I can complain about lack of trees. That course looks like golf heaven to me. If only it weren't a 15 hour plane ride from me.

i have played this course a number of times... its stunning. played it about 3 wks ago. playing this course from any of the colours is challenging... from the blacks (tiger tees) its just mind blowing. you would play this course twice over two days & still want to go back for more. it has the 3-4 holes set up similiar to Amens corner (11, 12 & 13) @ Augusta National Golf Club...
