Camarillo Springs Golf Course

For summer it was a cool breezy day. Fairways and rough bad condition, lots of dead spots, mix of crabgrass and fairway grass. Greens bumpy, okay on pace. Best to play winter rules on course otherwise a lot of divots, holes, and bad areas to hit where there shouldn’t be any. Bunkers were messy. I played because weather was good and tee times easy to get today. But i moved my ball out of areas that would normally be ground under repair because of dead, dirt or dry spots. Typical for this course lately but if you want to learn how to scramble out of bad lies, this is the place. It was okay but other courses in better shape.

Waayyyy more expensive than it should be. One of the public courses I expect to pay under $20 for. Pace of play was the worst I’ve ever seen. 1/10

This is my local course and I like playing it, but the course is not being attended to like it has in the past. Also the weekend rate of $57 with cart is just way too much for this course.

Fairways are in okay shape. Greens are great. Pace of play was pretty fast.

The Course is in the best shape I’ve seen in the last couple years... I went twice this week because it’s been the best I’ve seen in a while. The course has a great balance of challenging holes and friendly holes. Greens are in great shape too.

The greens were well maintained, albeit a little slow, but at least were interesting. The tee boxes, fairways, and roughs have seen better days. Also, holes 2-6 must be too close to a dump or something very smelly.

If you want to lose faith in golf, play here. They don’t like mowing the tee boxes or watering their fairways. Their greens are in fair condition, but the problem is getting to them. Holes 4-7 smell like feces. Will never go back.

Overgrown tee boxes and dead grass everywhere. If you’re going to spend $45 to golf, pick any other course in Ventura or LA. Good luck Camarillo Springs! Really hope that remodel happens.

The starting holes were great, a couple of the finishing holes were pretty good. 9-12 weren't very good. Just felt like makeshift holes in peoples' backyards.

Overall I enjoyed the views, the landscapes, etc. so it was a pleasant experience

Very interesting layout with lots of variety to the holes, however conditions are very poor. Greens are good, tee boxes a disaster, fairways not much better.

5 hour round on Sunday morning, too many twosomes and fivesomes on the course.

Dissapointed for the cost, plus the additional per rider $12 makes it not a great value.

I hesitate to write this because I don't want it to be crowded but Camarillo Springs is the current sweet spot in my area for a good enough course at a good enough price. With the pandemic many of my usual haunts are too pricey or too crowded or both. I've ended up here. It's a nice layout - 16 good holes + 2 boring par 3s. Not in the greatest shape but good enough around the greens and down the fairways to not drive you nuts. Pleasant environment with the coastal weather and sort of marshy, farm field adjacent atmosphere. Wind plays a big part in your strategy. The course has struggled in recent years, but with current level of play they are watering and things are "good enough." The rough is Kikayou - when watered the same as Riviera country club. You have to develop a strategy for getting out of it - not necessarily grabbing the sand wedge like most courses. I enjoy playing here, often in under 4 hours for 18, walking.
