WOW What a great course. Conditions were fantastic. Greens were quick and true. Great variety of holes. Long down hill par 3's and short up hill par 3's. A driveable par 4 and another that plays about 430 uphill. You'll use all your clubs on this one. Hope to get back here again soon.

I could play this course everyday and not get tired of it. Each time I've played it the golf course has been in great condition. Can't ask for much of a better golf experience. A must play.

Great Course. One of my favorite. The greens were rolling so smooth and quick. Very Pure. Can't wait to play Cypress Ridge again.

Would have been nice to know the greens were punched BEFORE we played! Hard to enjoy a round when you aren't expecting that. I don't think this course would be one of my favorites even if the greens were in great shape. Most of the holes are pretty straight forward in design but the majority of the fairways are steep- up, down, or sideways. Makes it tough to place a shot because even the best shot will roll somewhere else. A couple of very interesting holes, a couple of standards. No.7 is a fairly short par 4. The simple shot is down into a steep canyon that leaves you uphill over rough to the green. Risk/Reward- those of you with long drives can cut the corner and carry the green. Some of the holes have nice views, some are just in the middle of houses and look like any course anywhere. Lots of uphills and downs so if you are walking be prepared. I won't go out of my way to play this course again.

We called in the morning to book a tee time and drove an hour then paid and went out and at the first green discovered they were punched. To me thats inconsiderate, there were many other courses we could have played if we had been told. Its an interesting course with lots of hills but many make the course almost unplayable. Severely uphill off the tee to the point that you need to hit 3 or 5 wd to get the ball up the hill. Side hill fairways that force your shot all the way across to the rough on the downhill side. The sand was like beach sand. Almost too soft. Overall not a good experience!

Played 3/27 PM on my way to L.A. Twilight special $30 w/cart due to Cal Poly tournament. Overall, I really enjoyed the course and recommend it as an enjoyable play. Nevertheless, based on its rating of 9, I was expecting more. Two things in particular stood out: 1) a number of the tee boxes were spotty and uneven; and 2) the bunkers I was in (5) were inconsistent - some almost hard-pan and others having the consistency of beach sand. Don't let that stop you - I just don't think it should be a 9.

Right now they are runniing a special for 40% off greens fees which is a heck of a deal. Played on 3-23-09 and found the conditions not as good as the usual for this course. Dont get me wrong, the course conditions here are probably better right now than 80% of the courses in the state but just not the way im used to seeing it. The greens were good but still healing and the fairways were decent but not lush as they always are. My only complaint about this course since its inception is the sand in the bunkers. Its soo soft and difficult, its like they went down to the dunes and loaded all the beach sand in a dump trunk and used it on the course. its playable but difficult. Had some good holes and several tough ones. drove the green on seven and three putted for a par, that kinda day. My neighbors father in law in town from Texas thought this was the best course he had ever played, I guess we get spoiled here on the central coast with so many great choices.

Was up in the area for the weekend. Got a chance to play Monarch Dunes the day before. These two courses are about as different as night and day. From the TeeBoxes to the Greens and the fairways, the course is in almost perfect condition for this time of year. I know this course was designed by Peter Jacobson about 10 years ago. but it has the look and feel of the Ojai Valley Inn. for sure a must play if you are in the area.
