4.5 Hour Round

Extremely slow. I know it’s resort golf but it was brutal. Staff didn’t care. No ranger keeping groups in check. Overall, disappointment.

What an Incredible Resort and Golf Course

First time playing. Despite the cost, more than we are accustom too, Absolutely Worth Every Penny. The staff is beyond helpful, conditions perfect.

The course itself is particular challenging on the front 9, much more reasonable on the back 9. What a Wonderful experience.

Tough Course - But Worth it

Be prepared, the front 9 has plenty of challenges, the back is much more reasonably. Be sure to talk with the incredible Mark (starter), without his guidance the day would have been Much harder.

All of the staff from beginning to end were terrific.

The cost to play might appear expensive, however, it's worth every penny. Enjoy

Golf not a priority

Inconsistent traps. Fairways dry. Once a favorite course of mine. Things have been deteriorating the past 2-3 years. Still a decent course just but worth the money

Gem

Hadn’t played since remodel. Wonderful layout in beautiful setting. Fast, sloping greens. No hole is a repeat. Exceptional value through Golf Now.

Still as advertised

If I had to nitpick a. few things I would say a few of the greens were beat up and diseased, and 18's tee box is still wonky. They have been temporarily moving it up for years now.

But other than that, hard to complain. Great service, fun course and fantastic amenities. Definitely a top five course normal people can play in the LA/ Ventura/ OC area.

One of my all time favorite places to play

Course, weather, views, difficulty, fairness ... all in one. Yes it's a bit pricey for sure - but you're not just paying for golf.

You're paying for the experience - beauty - lack of homes surrounding every hole. It's a package.

We valeted for the first time - HIGHLY recommended.

Ojai Valley Inn Never Disappoints!

One of my favorite courses in the LA/Ventura area!

Staff is always amazing! Course is always great and pace of play is always fast. Played in 3.5 hours on a Sunday today - almost unheard of!

Love the design and architecture of the course and will look forward to many more rounds here!
