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.

Don’t miss out
Cool course to play. You can make it as long as you want with a lot of different tee choices. Playing with my wife and she was super happy with the red tees and the distances appropriate for medium level woman golfer or even kid that plays well. Bunkers could use work (some in great shape and others lacking but I struggle in the sand so I can’t blame the course for my ineptitude). I’m not from here so not sure what is expected for grass in fairways in late January. If not playing up in fairway, you could get some unfair lies but those of us who are not on a tour can move it a few inches and the lie was just fine. As Judge Smells would say… yes, winter rules and all. Captain Kirk the starter was extremely nice and helpful with course tips. Nice that the round came with free drink. Will be going back and trying to get my revenge on the course as there are places on greens you do not want to be, lot of 3 putts.
First Timer
Very nice course, the staff was very friendly all the way around. They do need marshaling to keep pace of play. I know on the weekend but when you backup 4 groups because of one group you need to help along. The fairways were in great condition for wu tee, greens very fast. Will play again
Unfortunately due to horrific smoke from castaic fire and smoke I couldn’t play. Out the $ but it wasn’t healthy to play
Improvement in staff friendliness
Sterling Hills has been notorious in the past for rude and unfriendly staff. I was pleasantly surprised with the friendliness of the starter. Course conditions were good except for some unmaintained bunkers. Greens have always been well maintained at Sterling. Paid practically nothing because I had a bunch of Golf Pass tee time credits I needed to use up this month. Thus a great value as well.
Emergency 9…
Great place to get a last minute 9 holes if you’re in the neighborhood for the holidays and need to “go on a walk”…. Enjoy
Great Course
Arguably the best course in the 805. A plus that my gf’s parents live on this course lol.
