Front nine is a jewel.

The front nine is great terrain driven golf course design. They need to figure out hole 18 and The Farmhouse.

Timeless classic

Ojai Valley Inn is a classic old school golf course. Tree-lined, tightly bunkered and beautiful. Not particularly long, but you will use every club in your bag. Only disappointment is they significantly shortened the 18th hole, which used to be one of the toughest in Southern California.

A real treat with a very friendly staff. You can play quick during the week, but weekends are quite crowded after 7:30 am or so.

Amazing Course

Great course and smooth play. The most comfortable carts are included and they hooked up water and ice. The cart has GPS and seems accurate.

It is a beautiful course, but a bit confusing in the beginning. The first 2 holes were extremely challenging. Hole number 1 was frustrating. If you got on the right side it was a massively sloped frustration. # 2 was impossible to guess. After that it became easier to get a handle on it.

What a beautiful day.

Still has it!

Haven’t been here in 15 years. Had read some critical reviews and was worried that they’d gone through same post-pandemic challenges as others. Turned out to be fantastic - great track, great course condition, wonderful staff and solid pace, especially since slower resort guests let me play through. I’ll be back!
