Not As Good As Previously

I've played the course before, and always been impressed with course conditions, especially the greens. Commensuarate with the ambience and the usual price. (Yes, this time we got a tremendous deal.)

It seems that the greens have not been properly cared for...maybe recently punched? The 6th hole was particularly bad. After a few holes of nicely fast greens, suddenly here is this...moonscape. Coming up a suddnely much slower green is one thing. But s'ow and your ball is aimlessly meandering left and right as it hits rough spots and giant obstacles is quite another. Several others were no better. Disappointing.

Of course we'll come back. I just hope that when we do, the greens are in MUCH better shape.

Shame on management

Ojai Valley Inn is a beautiful resort in beautiful setting. The golf course also could be beautiful and I am sure at one time it was lovely. The first few holes are a little gimmicky but overall the track is pretty fun and challenging. Unfortunately I have to bring up the lack of care to the course. Tee boxes are mostly trashed, some only had very little grass so you we’re hitting off of sand. Many greens had issues and lots of fringe was dead. A lot of uneven playing surfaces with dead grass and lots of hard pan lies. I felt ripped off. I hope the club takes responsibility and brings the course back to the high standards that it deserves. It was in worse shape than most Muni courses

Fun Course by pricey

I love this place for its beauty and the facilities / staff. The pace of play was fine, the greens were not in great shape, different greens had widely different speeds in my opinion. Unique hole designs, great views.

Nice

We had perfect weather. When the Santa Ana winds are blowing there is no wind in Ojai . Great place to also live.

Disappointed in a Gem

I have discussed my issues with Spencer the golf director and he has explained that some of the terrible things that are bringing down my last experience at Ojai are being addressed. I hope so. Ojai is a great track if in proper condition and this time it was the bottom of the pst 50+ rounds I’ve played there
