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.

Golfer Reviews
Great value
Course is being worked on to be even better. This is a hidden gem in Ventura county. Staff is very friendly. Pace of play is usually really good. Tees off at 3:15-walking and just got our round finished.

Hot summer day
Played this course because of the heat wave in So CA. It was 99 degrees when we teed off. The course was 20 minutes behind. Decent shape but lots of ground under repair. Book on golf now that’s the deal otherwise rack rate is high.
I’d play it again, and recommend if you haven’t played there give it a try.

What a gem! Great layout. Will keep returning.
Don't know how I never heard or ran into this course. Glad I did. It is situated inside a housing community but the homes don't really come into play unless you really hit bad. Most holes are very fair some are devilish. Price is fair for what you play. The weather in the summer is comfortable.
Value + Coastal Climate + Friendly Staff
The course is not difficult but it isn't dull either. Weather is all good, doesn't get the summer heat. Course conditions are gradually improving. They are actively working on fairways. Greens roll true, a little slow. T Boxes are pretty good everywhere. Cost is a bit under average for the area and they offer deals packaging food with the round and a small bucket of balls is alway part of the green fee.

Always a Fun Course
The greens are in good condition, but sanded on this day. Fairways were a little firm in some spots, causing me to hit some shots thin. Overall, the course is always fun to play. I wish more people would fix their divots. So annoying!!

Could be a nice track
Played today with 3 others. Some of the greens had just been dressed but they were still very fast. The fairways were average with a lot of bare spots. I like the course because the greens are very challenging.

Fun but tough
I had fun though my score doesn’t show it. Greens were great. Tee boxes need some work and some of the fairways were over watered. But I’d for sure be back now knowing what to expect.

Good times!
We really had a good time at this course yesterday. The conditions were good, the layout is fun while challenging and the staff was very easy to work with upon checking in. .Some individuals in pro shops clearly are unhappy with their job (you all know what I mean) and it makes for the initial impression of a course to be a negative one. Not with these guys.. Keep it up and law’ll see you again soon.
Pa, their complimentary lunch offer with some of their reservations is a great touch too. it separates this course from some others when deciding where to spend your money.
