FYI
This is a Beautiful course and very challenging. If you dont live here and dont use golfnow.com you will pay $180.00 to play locals pay $89.00 but with Golfnow.com I paid $55,00 plus 44.95 What a great deal. I am so lucky to live here but i would recommend this place to everyone whom wants a hugh treat. If you are a duffer bring lots of balls.
Ojai Experience
Just love this course! Played two days in a row!
It is challenging for a 24 handicapper, but fun!
A return visit
Course is really well kept, and challenging. This was a returned visit, and it was a pleasant experience. Next time I'll bring my sons.
Great course
I enjoy playing here... Good course... Great views... Awesome food!
Scenic gem
This course has a great layout. There are not a bunch of trees places willy nilly all over the place like a lot of courses. There are a select number of nice, mature trees that frame each hole in a unique manner. The mountains in the background and the great condition of the course are a bonus.
Kira's birthday
The only negative was the greens were punched & sanded. Which happens this time of year. I just wish we would have known.
Golf now should notify customers of course conditions
Ojai is a very nice course. Good layout and some challenging holes. The staff is top notch, very attentive and friendly. The course had just been punched a week ago so it was pretty bumpy on the greens. Fairways were pretty good, just had to move ball out if aeration holes. It would be helpful if GolfNow would give this info to a customer upfront so they are not surprised by the conditions when you arrive at the course.
Ojai Valley Inn
Really nice course, worth the Golf Now Hot Deal price.
One of my favorite courses
Greens were being aerated, but tee to green course was in great shape. Always a great round.
what's not to like?
If you love great scenery, a golf course designed by the same man who designed Riveria, Bel Aire, and many of the great golf courses in L.A. do not miss this one!
great facility - great staff - gorgeous shape
>> if i hadn't shot a 95 <argggh> our threesome would have finished the round in 4 hours. gorgeous track. lovely and roomy hilly terrain. seldom see players on other fairways or greens. greens are fair, traps are good quality sand.
Golf now price is what it's worth
Nice well groomed course, almost perfect
greens, average to slightly below average
fairways. Surprisingly shabby range balls.
Great staff from pro shop through starter and
assistants. Full price green fee is worse value
than airline full fare coach seat. Use Golf Now.
A Gem
Loved this course. It's well worth the drive to get there. Setting is beautiful in the rolling hills and mountains. A great rate off Golf Now, otherwise we probably wouldn't have played it, as the rack rate is more than we like to pay. It's not long, but it is very challenging. The greens are in great condition, and the fairways are pretty good, although they are a bit dry given the current drought. Great guys at the starter's booth. A classy resort setting. Had a nice patio beer and snack after the round at Jimmy's pub.
Great oldie
an old course but a great one. good conditions during a drought. green's are tricky as always. a good challenge for any level.
Great course
The overall experience was great from the staff to the course. The staff bent over backwards for me.
Appropriate tees
Course has great variety of holes. The par 3's are very challenging from the blue tees. Signage at the complex could be better for the first timer. Had no idea where to park car. The range did not open until nine a.m. so if you have a tee time before that you don't get a proper warm-up. Our breakfast was ok and expensive.
Love Ojai Valley Inn
I have played many courses in California and yet this is still one of my top favorites... Must go and play here, it's amazing!!!.
A little funky
Some forced carries, a whole lot of hills requiring up and downs and pretty much a target course. Greens in good shape. Although it was my first time, I played with 3 others who make it a point to come there. In fact, one was a married couple who belonged to 2 other clubs, but come to Ojai every so often for "the fun of it".
Biggest frustration for me was that I was a guest at the Ojai Inn and it would have cost me $180 to play; thankfully I booked thru GolfNow and saved $100.
Nice track, but not great
I had a decent experience, but based on it's reputation of being a great course I was a bit underwhelmed. I got a good deal on Golfnow, so for the price, not bad. I would play this course again without hesitation, but in my opinion it is not all it is cracked up to be. It does have some great holes. If you only have time for 9 holes then play the back. The back is much nicer and is what makes this course worth playing.
Great GolfNow value
This is a grand old course where Jimmy Demeret played with Buddy Hackett, Bob Hope and Bing. This place has a lot of history and pictures. We stayed there but even as guests the green fees are high. GolfNow has a great rate. I played two days in a row and enjoyed it. The greens are quite quick, I'd guess over 10 on the Stimp, with deep contours. Fairways are wide and the rough isn't a killer. They have bronze markers on the back nine describing the holes that were "lost" after the US Army trained there for WWII. They restored in the 90's, I believe. I enjoyed knowing that. The starter and crew were outstanding. I can't wait until I go back.
