Rode the Greens (6537/71.1/135) in around 3H twilight. 90, clear and breezy made for nice playing conditions. The front 9 is closed until late summer to renovate the sprinkler system. So currently playing the back twice on this fun to play Fazio layout that constantly goes up/down rolling hills to get in 18 on this course.

Tees mostly lush and level with few unfixed divots.

Fairways firm with lots of roll. Mostly lush, cut tight but beginning to get some brown spots from the heat.

Rough is mostly clumpy Bermuda.

Sand very nicely maintained. Plentiful, thick and deep around the greens. Hardpacked on the fairway traps.

Large Bermuda greens are rolling smooth and quick again after spring punching. Firm with few ball marks because of the firmness.

Nice restaurant on site with a good selection and reasonable golf course prices. Excellent all grass practice area which includes range balls. Carts have nice GPS. Customer service always good at this facility. Usually no drink cart on weekdays, snack shop @ the turn is available. Because this course is so spread out, you rarely see walkers here. Recommended.

Played with 1Plus 1 in the AB Men's group tournament. POP 5H, 40M, but we played with really nice guys which made that much more bearable. Mid 60's, completely overcast and little wind.

Tees decently maintained. Mostly level with a normal amount of divots.

Fairways okay to play from, decent coverage.

Rough a mixture of grasses with decent coverage.

Sant traps were nicely maintained.

Greens still recovering from spring maintenance. Medium fast and somewhat bumpy, but few ball marks. Several greens you were in trouble if above the hole, but only a few had tiers.

Customer Service good. Carts have GPS to the F/M/B of the greens. Good food @ reasonable prices in the restaurant onsite. Military course built in 1957, this is an old school tree lined layout. Not overly tight, fun to play. Recommended.

Walked the Whites (6129/68.4/120) with 1Plus1 in 4H, 10M mid day. High 60's calm and overcast made for nice playing conditions.

My first time playing here. Old school, fairly tight, tree line Parkland style layout. Fun course to play, mostly flat with some hazards to avoid.

Tees were very mediocre. Often unlevel. Mostly good coverage with some bare spots but too many unrepaired divots.

Fairways mostly good with some GUR type areas on many holes.

Rough a mixture of grasses, mostly good. The lies could vary widely within relatively small areas.

Sand traps were really nice. Fine sand and well maintained.

Greens are small and deceptively quick. Still showing the effects of spring punching, so they were bumpy. But few ball marks and you could see that in probably 7-10 days, they could be quite good.

Customer service good. Saw a cart gal once and the restaurant onsite has good food @ good prices. Not as good a layout or in as good of condition as it's sister North course IMO. But still a fun course to play. Recommended knowing that the playing conditions are not that great.

Walked with 1Plus1, Brian and Steve twilight in 4H, 45M. POP was actually better than it sounded, we waited some but for the most part it was just busy, groups stacked up 1/2 a hole apart AD. $43 to walk mid day. Overcast with a little breeze in the 60's made for very pleasant golfing conditions.

Fun, no frills, old school golf course with ample fairways and no tricked up greens. Mostly flat with no severe elevation changes.

Tees good coverage. Decent with only a few areas needing divot attention.

Fairways had a few bare spots but were generally good.

Same for the rough, which was higher than the fairway but most places were not overly penal.

Sand Traps had fine, nice sand. Decently maintained for a busy public course.

Greens still recovering from aeration last month but generally rolled okay. Medium fast and they held more shots than not.

Quick efficient check in. Restaurant onsite had an excellent "Golfers special"... Burger, fries + drink for $9 that I would highly recommend. Only had played here once previously about 7 years ago, like the layout, fun to play. Recommended.

Rode the Greens (6537/71.1/135) in less than 3H twilight. 95 and calm made for surprisingly pleasant playing conditions.

Tees lush and level with few unfixed divots.

Fairways firm with lots of roll. Mostly lush, cut tight bit beginning to get some brown spots from the heat.

Rough is mostly clumpy Bermuda coming out of dormancy.

Sand nicely maintained. Plentiful, thick and deep around the greens. Hardpacked on the fairway traps.

Large Bermuda greens are at least 2 weeks away from being smooth again after spring pucnhing. Firm but have slowed to medium speed with the warmer weather. Few ball marks because of the firmness.

Challenging, fun to play Fazio layout that constantly goes up/down rolling hills. Excellent all grass practice area which includes range balls. Carts have nice GPS. Customer service always top notch at this facility. Usually no drink cart on weekdays, snack shop @ the turn is available. Nice restaurant on site with a good selection and reasonable golf course prices. Recommended.

Rode the Greens (6537/71.3/137) in less than 4H. Weather has been great, 90ish with low humidity most days.

Tees very lush/level with few divots.

Fairways are excellent to play from. Lush and firm with lots of roll.

Roughly mostly Bermuda still mixed with winter Rye. Thick and can be punitive even a few inches off many fairways and greens.

Greenside sand traps nicely maintained with plenty of thick, soft white sand. Fairway bunkers firmer.

Large Bermuda greens are firm and still recovering from spring maintenance. Probably 2 more weeks until they are smooth and roll well again.

Excellent all grass practice area that includes multiple chipping and putting greens. Nice GPS on the carts. Fun Fazio layout that features native hazard areas on both sides of more holes than not. Depending on tee choice, forced carries as well. More holes play downhill than uphill and some greens run away from you. Very friendly customer service is always top notch here. On course services only on weekends in high season, but snack shop @ the turn and a nice restaurant onsite. Recommended.

Front 9 currently closed for aerification. So rode the back 9 Green tees twice to get in 18 holes. Nice challenge, because that back is the toughest of the four 9's @ Ventana. Weather has been warm but still nice. Mostly in the 90's with little wind. POP rarely an issue, they usually have Player Assistants out patrolling. My front 9 as a 3some was slightly over 3H, the back 9 as a single in barely over an H with no one out late in the day.

Tees lush/level with few divots.

Fairways excellent to play from. Lush and firm with lots of roll.

Bermuda rough growing in nicely with the warm temps. Ball can easily sit down as it grows out more.

Greenside sand traps well maintained with plenty of thick, soft white sand. Fairway bunkers firmer.

Large Bermuda greens are firm and smooth with few ball marks. Down to medium speed with the warmer weather.

Fun Fazio layout that features native hazard areas on both sides of nearly every hole. Depending on tee choice, forced carries on many holes and more holes play downhill than uphill.

Excellent all grass practice area that includes multiple chipping and putting greens. Nice GPS on the carts. Recommended.

Rode the Greens (6537/71.1/135) in less than 3H twilight. With temps consistently in the 90's recently, the course is drying out and the Bermuda is taking over everywhere again.

Rode the Greens (6537/71.1/135) five times since my last review. POP usually around 4H, 15M on this course.

There was a very rare sighting @ Ventana this week.

Was it a bird? No, it wasn't a bird. Was it a plane? No, not a plane either. Was it Superman? Nope. What was it? Something even more rare... It was actual, verified 1Plus1 sightings for 7 consecutive days on an actual golf course. Even more gratifying was to witness Jeff getting his game back into shape after a long layoff by going 75-74 his last 2 rounds on a tough course. Not bad for a skinny old guy!

Tees lush and level. Excellent to play from with few unfixed divots. With the warm weather, incredible how quickly properly repaired divots are completely gone and look lush again.

Fairways firm with lots of roll. Lush and excellent to play from.

Rough is either clumpy Bermuda coming out of dormancy or what is left of thick, overseeded Rye.

Sand immaculately maintained. Plentiful, thick and deep around the greens. Hardpacked on the fairway traps.

Large Bermuda greens smooth, firm and medium fast. Few ball marks, these greens roll nicely.

Rode the Greens (6537/71.3/137) early morning with a very nice Sr. couple. 80ish, clear and calm. Easy 4H POP, never rushed.

Tees lush/level with few divots other than par 3's and they regularly repair them.

Fairways lush, play firm and are excellent to play from.

Large Bermuda greens roll nice. Firm, smooth and they have them downright fast for the upcoming Member-Guest Tournament. Part of my challenge was I kept missing where I had down hill putts. But I never remember a round where I had so many 15' putts coming back?
