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.

Rock hard turf and 15 of 18 greens unplayable

1 hcp player - Course is borderline unplayable. Fairways are decent but everything else is rock hard. Literally could not push a tee into the dirt for a drive. Forget about short game, chipping off concrete. Greens were baked out and bare in some spots. Worst of all, 15 of 18 greens full of invasive grass. Holes 16,17 and 18 were Ventura of old but hard to justify the rate for 3 holes.

Disappointing green conditions

Greens appear to have, at worst, disease, at best 2 different grasses growing at different speeds…was very disappointing as putting was a lottery. You can tolerate inconsistent conditioning on other parts of the course, but not on the greens.

Layout was a little disappointing too compared with other places we’ve played. Played close by on Tuesday, and it was better in all respects.

I’m afraid I won’t be back, and that’s in spite of the very nice staff and food offering.

Nice course, alot of par 3's

Nice course, having come back to playing after a year layoff, shoulder surgery, more than a challenging course to play. Course was a bit dry and greens were fast.

great experience

This course was great. I think we snuck in from somebody else cancelling at a cheaper than normal rate the night before. We were the 2nd to tee off and cruised right through we may of even played 18 in under 3 hours. Everything was in great shape. The only "con" was navigating to the first tee was kind of tricky it was like across the parking lot so we did a few laps around the clubhouse so remember to ask for directions.
