Excellent golf course. Dramatic elevation changes make some of the holes a little bit ridiculous but apart from that, the golf course is of championship quality. A challenge from start to finish.
The condition of the course was superb. With lush fairways, and smooth greens (although the greens were very grainy late in the day), Moorpark CC is an ideal choice for those who take the game seriously.
There are five sets of tees which give everyone a chance but I would still not recommend this track for beginners.
I played on the Canyon Crest and Creekside courses and both were top quality. The Creekside was more difficult and narrow, where as Canyon Crest had wide open fairways on most holes. It's just about getting your drives in play here at Moorpark CC and once that is navigated, there are some very inviting large greens to aim at.
Great GPS system on the cart that doesn't give just give you basic front, middle and back readings. The GPS identifies hazards and distances required to clear them etc. A real asset when playing a course for the first time!
Highlights were holes 3 and 4 on Creekside and 9 on Canyon Crest.
The pace was pretty slow but that's to be expected of a Sunday afternoon.
All in all, an excellent day out and I'll be back asap.

What a great golfing experience!
Certainly one of the most picturesque golf courses I have ever played on around the world.
The short par 4 4th and signature par 3 14th are two highlights and two of the best looking golf holes I've ever played.
The greens however are tough. Even for an experienced golfer such as myself, I found the break difficult to read and the speed hard to gauge. I was told that everything breaks towards the huge canyon to one side of the course. I couldn't bring myself to allow for that considering the slope of the greens. I therefore ended up with about 3 or 4 three-putts during my round which hurt my score a bit. Watch the speed and try to keep the ball below the hole! Some of my putts were also a bit bumpy but that's my only drama with this magnificent golf course.
I'll be back for sure.
Even from the black tees, this is not an overly long course (helped in part by dramatic elevation changes) but accuracy is essential with a lot of balls potentially lost. If your driver is off, you'd better have a solid two iron or hybrid to get it out there 200 yards, otherwise it could be a tough day.
I was striking it extremely well and still barely broke 80. Local knowledge required on many holes.
Worth the drive from LA, ten-fold!

A very decent track considering the price, location and business of the course and range.
The course requires accuracy from the tee and sharpness with the irons as the fairways are reasonably tight and the greens are small. The course is not overly long but will punish bad shots because of the tree-lined fairways. Once in the trees, take your medicine and punch out unless you want to take a 6 or 7.
Not a great deal of slope on the greens but putting can be difficult as the greens are pretty slow and bumpy.
The range is good, however I personally do not like hitting off synthetic mats. The chipping area is small and the green is like concrete and is not receptive at all (unlike the ones on the course).
It's my local course so I play regularly and try to avoid peak times as it's one of the busiest Municipal courses in America.
Worth the twilight rate, but would hunt out a cheap deal online elsewhere if peak play was the only option.
Solid public course.

Played the Babe course today. The course is exceptional condition and most of the greens were running true without flaws.
The course is narrow and requires accuracy off the tee. But it's not an overly long course and it can become target golf if you're hitting fairways. A lot of wedges and nine-irons into greens from the black tees and birdies to be made. However, the greens are tricky and pin positioning is clever on multi-level greens.
It has some nice elevated tees and several dog-leg holes. It's one of those courses where you have to use your 2 iron or hybrid a lot off the tee for accuracy/doglegs but it's certainly worth it once you're on the fairways. The greens are wide and inviting yet still encourage shot-making because of their complexity.
Overall, a n excellent golf course. A nice test and a rewarding course. The amenities of the place look exceptional although I was only there to play golf.
I'll certainly be back.!

Excellent golf course. Minimal-links style golf which reminds me of the courses back in Australia.
Really well priced twilight rates and that is the main reason I keep doing the drive up from LA.
The condition of the course is superb with nice lush fairways and slick greens. The course plays really tough when the wind is blowing and can be a push over if it's still (a rarity!).
A lot of long irons are required to keep in play.
Some extremely well designed short-holes like the 3rd and 12th. It's always nice to hit four-iron, wedge around a corner onto a green.
Lovely course, hopefully I can get the ball in play more often next time to set up a good round.
