Even though it sounds morbid, the cemetery was beautiful. Some of the gravestones and markers were fabulous. The oldest burial site we saw appeared to be the late 1700's, early 1800's. There were fabulous oak trees and foliage. Lots of azalea bushes. I can only imagine how gorgeous it must be when they are in bloom. It was sad however... More

This is a wonderful old cemetery. There are many old monuments and old trees with moss hanging off the branches. We drove through it instead of walking and took many pictures. A must see while in Savannah.

My husband and I, along with our 9 month old, visited this cemetery this afternoon and definitely recommend it. The grounds are very beautiful with Spanish moss-covered trees lining the serene lanes, and old, ornate monuments marking the graves.

I know that sounds creepy but I swear its not. Visit Bonaventure and you will feel the peace that the place inspires! Its beautiful and every headstone tells a story.

Beautiful and peaceful. Be sure to bring camera, we walked a lot of it, some we drove and took pics from car. Be sure to stop at front office for map. There is no entry but they do take donations - hint hint.

Lots of history and really enjoyable stroll. It's a definite must visit while you are exploring downtown savannah

The hubby and I love anything historical and while we all know Savannah in itself is a city full of history...this cemetery is one of the must-see sites to experience. We went the week before the St. Patrick's Day celebrations while the azaleas were all in bloom. It was an ideal time to visit. We planned our trip to arrive... More
