Sterling Hills Golf Club
About
Sterling Hills Golf Club sprawls across acres of lush countryside surrounded by avocado groves and citrus orchards. The layout winds through the verdant hills between Oxnard and Ventura. The club opened in 1999 as the only public golf course in Ventura County. The layout is player-friendly enough for beginners to still feel comfortable but it also packs a considerable amount of challenges. The versatile layout balances areas of wide-openness with target-style golf. There is contoured mounding along the fairways and some interesting elevation changes. Thanks to the hilly terrain, there is hardly a flat lie to be found. Although Sterling Hills is still relatively young, there are some mature eucalyptus trees throughout. Golfers can warm-up on the driving range, chipping area, or putting green before the game since a bucket of range balls is included with the round.

Interesting layout
Fairways and greens punched with sand on putting greens which makes for horrible golf. No heads up about conditions before booking reservations. Course is fun and interesting nonetheless. Greens are small and fairways need a good mowing.

Maintenance
A more vigorous fertility plan needed on fairways and rough. Greens were aerified so no comment. Getting better but more intensity and detail needed.

Sand - Sand and more sand
Should you get a $$$ break if all 18 greens are aerated and sandy? Some dry fast sand, other wet slow sand - putting was difficult at best.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We work hard to maintain the course for everyone's benefit, which means aerifying the greens as part of our regular maintenance schedule. The greens will be healed soon and in pristine condition. Please come back soon for the 5-star experience you expect at Sterling Hills Golf Club.
