Rating 68.2

The golf course at the Ventura Country Club, situated east of Orlando near many major highways and the airport, is semi-private but the facility welcomes outside play. It is a short course that features undulating greens with sudden breaks. The golf course has challenging par-3 holes that put a premium on shot accuracy. There are strategically placed bunkers throughout as well as water hazards on 14 holes. Most of the well-manicured fairways are lined with homes. The par-5, 13th hole is Ventura Country Club's signature hole. It requires a shot from an elevated tee over water and past thick forestry on the left and an approach shot to small, well protected green that slopes back to front.

First round since the re-opening

Several changes to the greens and a new green/location on #18. Fairways were okay, greens okay, rough a bit inconsistent, tee boxes very scraggly. Good value for the price.

Good course, great condition for a very good deal

This is a great course, especially if you can get in it for the price I did, it was basically a steal but, as always there was a bit of arrogance in the pro shop and also with the starter in regards to GolfNow, non members and someday these people in all these CCs will realize that anyone walking in the door, even if they are via GolfNow might be potential members. They did not block their tee sheet, tried to blame GolfNow as all the courses do that do not know how to use the system to block their T-Sheet always do but they did get me out in the middle of the event just fine and I had a great day. The Marshall/Ranger out on the course was a great guy and made the day good.

Nice renovation, great green complexes

I played the course the day before they closed for renovations, and then a couple of weeks after they re-opened.

The new green complexes are awesome. Bigger, but with more slope, and importantly, varied and interesting multiple slopes on each green.

I wish they spent a little more on draining the fairways...there are still many soggy spots.

But I like the design, and I will play there again.

Good Ol Boys, and not the good ones

From check-in, when they complained that '"GolfNow should not have given you that tee time", till having the Marshall tell our foursome that the twosome behind us wants us to play faster when we were on a 1:40 pace, the Staff here proved that Locals rule the Greens.

The overall experience was not conducive to a pleasant round of golf. I would not recommend this course unless you were a local, tourist need not play here. Too many other friendlier courses to play.

even better than before

I like Ventura...played it at least once a month before the renovation and look forward to playing regularly again. The some of the new greens are slightly repositioned and have varying slopes and ridges that make for some tough putting lines...the heavy equipment that was needed for the remodel tore up the cart paths quite a bit in several areas but once that is repaved should be fine. There were a lot of walkers on the course and the people I played with were awful but still got around in about 3 1/2 hours which was not too bad.

Great Course - Management Sucks

They have been under a renovation. Added yards, new greens, and changed layout a bit. Been waiting for months now to play. On website, they claimed reopen was Nov 1. Have tried to get a tee time multiple times but they keep pushing the reopen date back for a soft launch for only residents. Every time I’ve called to ask, they are assh0les about it. I loved the course and conditions for a great price, but management sucks now.

Ventura CC

Had an evening flight from Orlando so this was the perfect location to get a round in before we flew home. There was a huge thunderstorm the night before and the course was very wet in places but not too bad overall. I’m a 15 handicap and played off the back tees but still found the course a bit short even so. Lots of par 3’s and short par 4’s but definitely would play again.
