Over-priced comparatively

River Ridge is an over-priced course. Typically it's maintained terribly, but because of the rain it's actually in ok condition. The company in charge does the bare minimum. And lest we forget, it's in Oxnard CA, and EVERYONE KNOWS that city is half full with second rate citizens and imported scum.

A fun and challenging round

I definitely recommend The Lakes course if you're looking for a round of golf that will test your skills and leave you smiling at the end of the day.

Rip off

Riverridge charged 67 dollars and claimed it was a holiday

My rate should have been 41

The course was completely booked

They made plenty of money not to mention the bar and restaurant

26.00 dollars more on a Monday that is not a holiday!

They can kiss my ———

I will never go back.

They charged more than what golf now quoted me.

That’s just Robbery !!!!!!!!

I like this course!

I had a great day of golf. I got tee'd up with 3 nice guys from Korea and we had a good time. I even got a Korean pancake :-)

The course is moderately difficult and challenging at the same time. I'm a handicap 18 and I find this course fun to play. I scored a 92 at the blue tee, so that is within my handicap ;-)

I will definitely come back!

Slow Pace of Play

We got to the 4th hole and there were 3 groups ahead of me that hadn’t even teed off yet. It took 45 minutes before we teed off and we left after that hole.

I was told to send an email to the manager and they never responded.

Poor condition

The fairways, rough and tees were in terrible condition. The grass was dead or gone I large areas. It appears the course is no longer watered. I had to play my ball from dirt areas in several locations. A maintenance guy continued to weed whack and kick up dust while we were on the green. The course was backed up with groups of slower golfers. I would not recommend spending any money at this course. Not worth it

Windy but a great day!

Those Santa Ana winds were brutal but we still enjoyed our round. Nice layout and interesting holes. We played the Vineyard. Staff did a good job controlling pace of play. We will definitely return. Only complaint - Bottled soda at $4.50 is ridiculous! We asked and were told that fountain sodas were the same price.

Good Layout, Tough Greens

The course is laid out well and challenging. Fairways were in mediocre condition, relatively light rough but lots of bare dirt off the rough, greenside bunkers tended to be firm and without much sand, greens were in very good condition. The green complexes are tough, with most having two levels -- get the ball on the wrong level and two-putting is difficult. Lots of elevation changes and several interesting holes on the front 9, pretty flat but good back 9. Round was pretty slow, took 4.5 hours -- didn't see any course marshals. Overall enjoyable round, good value, only real complaint was pace of play.

Worth Coming back

Had usually been playing/enjoying Victoria Lakes when blocked out of (home) Soule Park golf course. by tournaments. Played Vineyards after years absence. (Recalled it was too “ordinary”) Glad we did. good conditions, fun, fair, and challenging. Variety was indeed there. First 9 greens devilishly slick. Not just time of day-back 9 definitely rolling slower, easier to judge.

Two low(er) scores want to come back to challenge. Two high scores never want to see this course again.

Two walked-good, except for ridiculous green-to-tee distance from 13 to 14.. Two riders could have stopped @ clubhouse drank, a beer, and still beat hoofers to tee off on 14th.

Love River Ridge!

I played the Vineyard course about 5 times and played my best this time. 6-over.

Love the course (both) and area, range, etc. Always had a blast at this course.

Definitely playing it again.

The 1+ hr driving is not an issue at all!
