Camarillo Springs Golf Course

This course is good but so many beginner golfer
they need lean the rule first.

I really like the course but feel it needs to be maintained or cleaned up. It's tough to find a flat part on the tee boxes and the sand traps are hard. The greens are tight and role well.

I have been critical of this course recently due to the less than desirable conditions combined with a less than friendly staff. However I am improving my rating on this visit due to the friendliness of the staff on this visit. Upon entry to the clubhouse I was at least greeted with a friendly Hello and smile. I am not sure of the name of the man behind the counter, I think it was Gary or Greg. He was cordial upon my check in and informed me that we were still waiting for the rest of the group scheduled at my tee time. I was a bit early so I waited. Some time past and there was a shift change at the front desk in the Pro Shop. I was happy to see the new attendant come out and find out exactly who I was and my tee time. He then booked me with another single and had us go out in front of a foursome. It was a nice change of pace from what I had seen at the Pro Shop recently.

Overall this course needs some attention. I think my biggest complaint comes from the tee boxes and rough spots on fairways on some holes. Some greens were a little rough, but I actually thought the greens were improved from my last visit. Overall I still do like this track even in the rough shape it seems to stay in. There are a number of holes that I find very challenging and fun. I love 12th par 3 over the water and find it fun to play 12-18 going with and against wind each hole. I do think with the number of courses around at competitive prices Camarillo Springs needs to either drop rates or find ways to improve condition or play, so I cannot say that I would recommend this course to a friend. However I will say if the staff keeps improving with more of a welcoming vibe and some changes to rates or condition, this could be a course that finds my rotation more often.

I recommend this course too all golfers.
Staff friendly value for the money is great

Course was in decent shape, greens were good. Ya there was a few dry spots here and there nothing to bad. The problem was we played the first half in the sprinklers. Turn off the water during play!!!!!!

I had a better time than I expected. i booked a tee time to play alone but was place in a three some. I was expecting the worst but instead I played with three great people who added to the pleasure of the game. I played my worst golf in sometime but they were pleasant and encouraging. The course was great with one exception. The water smelled horrible and did take a little from the look of the course. I would play here again though just wish they would handle the smell.

The course is a good layout but needs attention. Fairways are bare in area's & the tee boxes are beat up. Greens are average. Good course to practice your game on.

Staff was very accommodating and the cost though Golfnow was a Hot Deal great value. The views on this course of the mountains are exceptional. Layout and difficulty level is ideal for 18 to 20 HC with good practice areas. Facilities should be updated and the course needs a higher level of attention to maintain ponds and fairways. Course is over priced at $35 to $55. This course would be a good value at $25 to $30 for weekdays, $35 to $40 weekends.

Course in good shape and just enough of a challenge to keep it interesting. Highly recommend course for beginners to intermediate golfers looking to play a regulation course and not get frustrated.

Fair was poor conditions as well as greens very bumping they need to be rolled after they pull the cup.

18 holes and cart for less than $30 per person... It's hard to beat that value.

The course is well maintained and the pace of play was comfortable. The course has a Marshall routinely driving around, which likely helps with the pace.

poor greens and fairways + no marshal to encourage faster play.

I have played Camarillo Springs off and on for the past 25 years. In all those years I have to tell you that the course is in the WORST shape that I have ever seen. To start, the course needs to be watered too many dry places-not spots, the tee boxes a horrible, my never stood on a flat area their dry and huge divots all over. Fairways need to be watered and seeded, if they marked "ground under repair" the course would be white. To top it off, Camarillo Springs Greens have always been very good if not great. They are really bad right now. I had very few putts that rolled well. They need to be mowed and ROLLED. There are too many VERY Good courses in Ventura County to waste your time at Camarillo Springs at this time. Mr Parks you own 3 golf courses put some money back into Camarillo Springs. The only good thing about Cam Springs is the blonde that runs the entire food and beverage dept by herself. Besty is the best thing that Cam Springs has going for them at this point

Played a 2:30 round, the Sat after 4th of July 2013 - Staff super helpful and accommodating - Playing in the afternoon - tends to get a bit of wind kick up in this area, however if you can hit a ball decently straight - its a great place to play. Different types of holes, and since it was near empty - I hit from the championship tees, which made the course extremely challenging.

great chipping area, putting greens !!

See above. Many areas of the course need attention. Greens are too soft. Footprints in the greens prevent a true roll.

This was a fun and very forgiving course. There won't a lot of out ob bounds, and a slice or hook will typically keep your ball in play. Very wide fairways, but the greens were slower than most. The bunkers were more like dirt than sand.

Great course for the value. Challenging enough from the blue and black tees and easy enough from the forward tees. Pace of play is great if you play early in the morning (I rarely tee off after 7:30am), but this course can be a nightmare if you play late morning or early afternoon rounds.

Except for the gusting wind, I found it a good course for the money. It had enough challenges to make it interesting.

Set up against the hills of Camarillo the course offers lots of water challenges and narrow fairways. Club house could be updated and enhanced to provide an optimum experience for the avid golfer. Weather was perfect and setting was pristine. Overall a good experience and one I would recommend to friends.

This course is a good value. Greens were receptive and the fairways were in good condition. Bring your Florida short game, and watch out for the sneaky water hazards.
