With fires raging and winds blowing in Ventura County we decided to head south. At $70 (senior rate) and nearly an hour drive I don't get a lot of chances to play Arroyo Trubuca. Noticed on GK that the greens were aerated a couple weeks ago so thought it was a good time to give this place another try and we were glad we did. This really is a great track with beautiful views and interesting holes. Teed it up at noon with perfect weather finishing in just over 4 hours. We waited on almost every hole but still managed to get around fairly quickly. The course is in very nice shape right now and will only get better from now on. Tee boxes well level, sand was consistent, and not much rough. The fairways are wide and do run out so picking the right club of the tees is critical to score well. Lies in the fairways appeared tight but the grass is very forgiving so it was great. The greens held shots well and rolled smooth. They were medium speed and still showed signs of aeratin with sand on them but putted good. We left feeling really good about our choice to play here and can't wait to return.....probably next week!!!

Paid $42 to walk Eldo on Monday at 8am finishing in 4.5 hours waiting on each hole. A little expensive IMO and the strange thing was they charged $43.95 to my playing partners with carts!! What the heck? Anyway, Eldo is in pretty nice shape right now especially the greens which were smooth, held shots, and were semi fast. The tees were level and the fairways were nice and green although there were many wet areas that should be marked GUR but I just took a free drop away from these areas. Bunkers were a little inconsistent but I did notice they were grooming many of them as we played. Rough is thick so stay out of it......
All in all, an enjoyable day of golf was had by all.

We teed it up here yesterday at 7:30 finishing in 4 hours. We always enjoy playing here because of the interesting rustic lay out with old oak trees and no homes. Sure you can here the freeway noise from the 101 but after the first couple holes you never really notice it.
The course conditions right now are in the transition stages so many areas are rough and inconsistent. Tee boxes are fairly level however a little beat up and a mix bag of long grass, short grass, and divots. The bunkers were disappointing. There was plenty of nice sand in them but the perimeters were not well kept and need some attention. I was in two bunkers and got out fine however I noticed that every bunker was not raked and footprints were everywhere. The rough around the golf course is also a mixed bag of grass, dirt, and bushes so stay in the fairways. The fairways were real nice and gave you good lies most of the time. We all thought the greens were the highlight of our round rolling smooth at medium speed. Looks like they will be aerating them soon so maybe they will also give some TLC to the other areas needing it at that time.

Played here today teeing off about 10 minutes after our 8:38 time. I don't know why it was so busy today but it was. Waited on most shots and finished in 5 hours......ugh. Conditions were not as good as the last few times playing here. The course is still very green but definetly rough around the edges. The greens were real nice, ran smooth, and held shots well but everything else was a little wet and just a touch above a normal muni. We still liked the course and next time we will get out earlier before the crowds.

I played here for the first time with 23 others yesterday. No one knew what to expect since temperatures soared to well over 100 degrees last week. We were pleasantly surprised to see the course was green and there was plenty of water holes to keep things interesting. We all played the black tees at 6500 yards and 126 slope. There were lots of fun holes with a good combination of long, short, and slight doglegs to keep you engaged. Everyone really seemed to enjoy the layout with well placed bunkers and water.
Conditions were surprisingly pretty good considering the long heat wave we were having. Nothing was immaculate however nothing was poor either. Greens were smooth and ran well, the bunkers had great sand (many were unraked though), fairways and rough had nice coverage and were fine to hit from, and the tee boxes were decent with the exception of a couple. My groups final verdict was.....this place is a keeper and if the course shows a little more attention to the details with conditions, it will only get better and better. Service was excellent!
Recommended!- yes indeed

For our second round on the Holiday weekend we played the North course for my friends 50th!!! We heard the greens had been aerated last week but really wanted to play someplace special. We were not disappointed with our choice. The conditions were very very good and the greens rolled good with a few bumps but we're very playable. They probably need another week or so to heal but I would still rate them 6.5 out of 10........we teed up at 7:30 and finished before noon on a Holiday so the pace was great. Can't wait to return!

Played here on September 1 with two others. This was the first time playing here for all of us so had no idea what to expect other than past reviews. Looking at the course driving in was impressive. The property is vast and looks similar to La Purisima imo. We all loved the lay out and overall feel of the golf course. Conditions, on the other hand, we're not as impressive. Many tee boxes were not level and chewed up, the bunkers were worse however the fairways and greens were fairly good. This place needs some TLC.......we all thought that this would be a designation type course if they maintained it better. We all said we would love to return when the course cleans up a bit. Right now you get muni like conditions with a resort feeling course........

We played here yesterday in a SCGA outing teeing off at 10:30. This is only my second time playing here so I didn't remember too much about it. Let me first say that it was a hot day and the carts were limited to "cart path only" and with very few water stations made for a tough 4.5 hour day. No one played particularly well in my group due to the heat.
Conditions were nice throughout with the greens being the highlight. They were smooth, held shots, and rolled at a decent pace. The fairways and tee boxes were all in nice shape with only a few areas needing attention. The sand was a little inconsistent but was very playable for the most part. This course isn't very long but it is engaging and fun. Bunkers are strategically placed and there is water on a few holes. I would would to play here again under "cooler" conditions.
Side note: the course took everyone's name and has pledged to give each player an embroidered towel which was a nice touch!

first off here today at 6 am and we finished by 9 am as a 3 ball walking. They are doing a great job keeping this course in shape. With the exception of the bunkers, everything was a strong 7-8 out of 10. Sand was wet and inconsistent. Played the blue tees and there are a few holes with some teeth but for the most part this course is straight forward old style golf. It is an enjoyable round especially with these conditions and i look forward to returning. We paid $45 pp to walk so it is reasonably priced as well.

okay, i have to admit, i gave Westridge a bad review a few months ago. I thought i may never play there again but i saw on GK that things were looking up conditions wise so decided to give it another try. We teed up at 7:30(our time was 7:22) yesterday behind a fivesome that arrived late. Not sure if they even allow fives but i think the group had two times and had a couple no shows. Anyway, they were real nice guys and kept a good pace so we finished in 4.5 hours.
CONDITIONS: a big improvement from my last visit. The greens were real nice with hardly a ball mark on them. They rolled smooth, true and held shots but were a little slow. The bunkers were very nice, the rough was ROUGH or should i say scruff. Tee boxes were fine but could be leveler and the fairways were pretty good but still need some attention in areas. All in all Westridge is doing a better job presenting there golf course and have won me back especially if they keep going in this direction. Cost was $40 with a cart so very worth the green fee. Have fun out there

Teed it up at BG today at 6:37 with Johnny and Jerry. What a great day and a great course. Pace was great with no waiting and 4 hours to complete while taking pictures and videos of the awesome views. I found nothing wrong with the conditions today. The greens were a joy to putt and rolled true and were medium fast. You don't want to hit hit it to far away from the fairways since there are many bushy areas that will swallow your ball. Fairways are generous for the most part and you can score here if you keep it in the short grass. Now is the time to play BG in my opinion, course is green, beautiful, and the design keeps you engaged on every hole. I will be returning soon! Fire it right at the stick and the ball will hold!

Played here today at 7:30 and finished at 11:45 with a short wait on half the holes due to a very slow twosome. It has been years since I've played here probably due to the high rack rates they charge. The senior rate starts at 60 so I can now play for $75 so I think I will be returning a little more often because the course is fun to play. The landing areas are very generous with many well place bunkers. We all found the conditions to be quite good throughout the course. The greens held shots and rolled true however we all thought they were a tad bit too slow.all the tee boxes were level other than the 13th which is still a temporary box due to maintenance. They did have a few divots but you could always fine a nice place to hit from. The fairways and bunkers were the highlight for the most part. There were a few areas GUR but the lies were usually nice and the sand in the bunkers proved to be some of the best I have played in a while. Had a great lunch in the players lounge afterwards too. Only negatives to our day was no cart girl was seen, the range is closed on Mondays, and the pace could have been I little better. We will definetly return soon!!!
