Played the course on 3/21/08. They are aeriating the fairways right up to the greens. You will get no roll or forward kick if your ball lands short of the green. Lots of standing water and muddy areas throughout the course. There were a lot of bare dirt areas around the greens which made chipping difficult. The course is not in good shape

Though Cam Springs is still a bit too expensive for what it is, I had a better time here today than I've had in a while. ($57 riding on Fridays...a little much...) Aside from a couple of fairways that were a little too damp in spots, the course is looking better than it has in a long time. The fringes were already aeriated and looking a little rough but overall the greens were awesome. Pace of play was good, staff and other golfers were all pleasant. I suppose it could've been the weather and they day, but it was a really good time!

Things are changing here. The fairways are in better condition right now than any time in years. Greens bumpy. Rough mowed and pretty good. The greenside fringe is having some sort of maintenence o... Continue »

Things are changing here. The fairways are in better condition right now than any time in years. Greens bumpy. Rough mowed and pretty good. The greenside fringe is having some sort of maintenence on-going and is a disaster right now. Overall much better than typical Camarillo Springs conditions. The fairways were a really pleasent surprise.

Played on a Sunday. Nice weather and mountain views. Course was in fair shape. Soggy spots at times. Greens rolled pretty nice. Good pace of play. NEEDS a beverage cart for $57 round.

I played Camarillo Springs for the first time on Sunday (9/9). I was impressed with the design of the course and the condition of the greens. Our group finished in 4.5 hours, but that may be due to our 7:00 am start. We waited on a few holes, but typical of public courses on the weekends. The group in front of us got a little behinid (they were hitting from the wrong tees based on observed ability) and the marshall asked them to pick up play (which they did). Good job. I know that there have been some previous comments about the golf carts, but it appears that they are all new, so maybe someone is paying attention to our comments???? The greens are really in good condition, and I am a sucker for good greens. However, the fairways are another thing. It is so thick (in the middle of the fairway no less) that I felt as though I had to hit down on the ball as though I was playing out of the rough. In discussing this with my playing partners they stated that the course cannot mow the fairways low because of the underground springs. If they can't, then I guess then we just have to adapt to the conditions. The tee boxes were uneven on almost every hole. How tough can that be to repair? Every review mentions this as a real problem (along with the former condition of the golf carts) so why not take care of the problem? I loved the par 5s and they really make you think about going for it in 2. There was no beverage cart on the course, a real drag when you throat is dry and your stomach is growling. Clubhouse is not available until the 12th hole. Speaking of the clubhouse, it needs some serious attention, especailly in light of the other facilities in the area. Everything looked really old and not very inviting. Overall, I'd play this course again, but not regularly. There are just too many other courses in the area for the same price that provide a better experience.

Course plays well but still over-priced. Better courses out there for the money.

Played on 7/14/07, tried to walk on as a single around 11:30am at Olivas = packed, tried Buenaventura = packed, River Ridge = beyond packed. Called Camarillo Springs and they said they were open for the rest of the day. That was the most positive thing about this course. Since Olivas has re-opened everyone is trying to get on and play the new track. For $55, don't think it's worth playing Camarillo Springs. I wish they would bring down their fees because for what they charge they should be able to purchase new carts. Haven't played this course in 4 years, and heard they had made some changes; No. 12 Par 3 (a bit better than before), added black tees (saw those tee boxes... not that impressive as far as being "new.") Some tee boxes were a little uneven; The fairways were holding out okay and the greens were decent at best. I had a 2 foot putt on No. 15 and missed the putt due to there being a huge bump from the filler of the old hole right in front of the cup. The greenskeepers need to learn how to flatten the patches. It's a decent layout and the wind kicks up making it a factor (not as much as the other afore mentioned courses.) Another complaint, if you're going to charge $55, don't allow fivesomes out, as a matter of fact, the twosome I was with pointed out an actual sixsome on an adjacent hole. There's no need to put more than 4 people in a group on this course. And if you are going to charge $55, invest some of that into new carts, better greenskeepers, how about an upgrade on the clubhouse, oh, and most important, how about some yardage markers on the fairways (sprinklers)? Hard to choose what to hit when there's no real knowledge of distance. The staff was pleasant. Enjoyed playing this course, but not as much as other courses in the area.

I too played on 7/9/07. Just after 3PM behind a 5-some. Every par 3 had 2 groups waiting to tee off. Course is in good shape but slow pace of play takes the fun out of it. I quit after the 10th hole because it was just too slow. Seriously, 3.5 hours to play 10 holes is just not right.
