Ojai Valley Inn

Pace of play was terrible! They didn’t have a tournament or skins game! Can only play Monday-Thursday!

I tried to check in but the gentleman at the counter said I wasn’t down on the system. I showed him my confirmation with Golf Pass and he said the rate was too low. I responded that GN had given me a promo. Still no help at check in. He said he would have to charge me but I showed him again on my phone that I paid GN. No charge at the course. He kept getting more upset and after I mentioned that I had played Ojai Valley Inn over the last 50 years he just scribbled on a paper and said to give it to the starter! How rude!!

There’s a lot of different variety in this course from some tight fairways to greens that can be a bit complicated. With all of that said there are great views and many holes that are just ionically beautiful. It’s a beautiful course and everybody should at least play it once.

The course is in fabulous condition except for the sand traps. They have no sand and you are basically hitting off of compacted dirt.

Travel far to play. the layout is very interesting and fun the actual course conditions are not that great and the service is terrible we played on a day of 90° Plus we saw the cart girl after 11 holes she had no water and no Diet Cokes. she said she was going to go back and get his water i.nstead she sent a guy in a golf cart with hot owaters so that we were supposed to somehow cool off in a cooler with no ice.for the amount of money paid not worth it

The course is stunning with amazing mountain views

The course has some great holes and nice views. It’s fun if you are at the resort for a casual round.

The cons:

A lot of people on the course. At one point there were multiple kids under 10 on a random tee box I was on. There was no starter and the conditions of greens were not great- lots of divots. They did roll true though

Excellent course. Parking on a Saturday was difficult but they offer valet service. Scenic, challenging, in great shape.

First time at this course, a lot going on with pedestrians, shuttles, and traffic; CONTROLLED chaos. Great course from tee boxes, fairways, and greens. Caddy sheet provided to help with layout of course which helped tremendously! White Glove Service from Pro Shop to Starter. Views are spectacular!

The pace of play was horrendous. The group ahead of us was horribly behind pace and caused 2 groups of people behind us to completely end their rounds early. Second time they also double booked us.

I arrived early, so I walked around the property and kinda got lost since it’s been over 10 years from my last visit. This place is a dream come true a 10 out of 10. Everyone was friendly and happy, living in this nice little private oasis. The practice area was great. I was able to build confidence. My first T shot was excellent. And my game was very good all day except for my putting. But oh, what can you do? T boxes, fairways, first cut, sand bunkers, putting, greens. Everything was A+ excellent.
