awesome track. This golf course is so interesting I never get tired of playing it. The course must have hired a new superintendent because it has really improved these past 6 months. This is my all time favorite course to play.

Amazing

This course was amazing! There are a few holes on the front over wild growth that were a little strange but overall, a great layout with amazing views of the surrounding mountain. The course was in impeccable shape! Our round was a little slow, but that is often the case with resort courses. Overall, it was a great day!

Bucket list golf course

This was the first time I have played Ojai, and after hearing so many good things about it and also being a fan of George C.Thomas golf courses I had very high expectations. I was definitely not disappointed. Besides how amazing the scenic backdrop is, the architects use of the natural terrain was perfection. The overall condition of the golf course was excellent, and every staff member I came in contact with from the pro shop to the starters desk were extremely friendly and engaging. This is definitely a "must play" course.

Best place to play on a windy day!

This course is always nice to play but on a cold windy day it was really nice! Just enough wind to cool us off, and as usual the staff and the course were all great! Best course in the area for the money!

Worth checking out

Nice old school course. Hilly layout, lots of target shots. Almost Pete Dye like. Not long but a few holes take driver. Greens are fantastic, roll true and very smooth. Holes cut tight so you need to get center cut each putt. Fairways ok, rough not too thick. Tee boxes are nice. Sand traps are immaculate but sand is heavy. Only goofiness is teeing off the first, 10 and 13 holes - they are right next to the hotel restaurant so expect distractions. Always music, noise and kids running around. Def first for me - lots of carts with spa guests rolling around too. Definitely play - well worth it.

Golfing in Shangri-la

I will continue to rave about the golf, the beauty and the customer service at this idyllic place. The breathtaking views from so many golf holes and the exceptional condition of play makes this one of my favorite golf courses in the tri-counties. Roland was so accommodating and everyone else was so friendly and actually smiling. You should really take a long weekend and spend some time here in Ojai, play some golf, partake in some delicious locally grown gourmet food and take in the wonder of this paradise nestled at the foot of the Topatopa Mountains. Personally, I am planning on making this a monthly trek.

Best getaway ever.

Played 3 days at beautiful Ojai Valley Inn and Spa. Love the course and everyone working there is so friendly and helpful. The starters, pro shop employees etc. should all get 10 stars! Can’t wait to go back.

Awesome!!!

Had a 950 tee time. Golf shop staff were super friendly . Starter was also great and very informative. Hardly anybody on the course , I think we saw a total of maybe 10 golfers all day. Course itself was awesome, everything was green and lush. Greens were super, probably rolling at a 9.5-10. Well worth the GolfNow rate. The best semi private golf course in Ventura county!!!

Wildfire

We have played this course many times and were looking forward to another good outing. However, there are wildfires raging in this part of the world and not only could we not get to the golf course but we also could not get through via telephone. The course, it turns out, was closed, as were roads to Ojai.

I have no doubt Ojai Valley Golf Course personnel will honor our prepaid threesome's green fees at a future date that is convenient.
