Played here twice in the past week and found it in great shape - Tee boxes and fairways like thick carpeting, just beautiful, and manicured greens. The sand traps are showing good results from improved attention. Must have timed it just right as their was little to moderate wind. You must be careful not to hit up into the thick grass outside the rough - they extract a severe penalty! Finished in under four hours both times (weekdays).

Played February 18th - For the most part, the course was in pretty good condition. Not spectacular, but the fairways were kept well, the greens rolled true and semi-quick once the morning dew dried. ... Continue »

Played February 18th - For the most part, the course was in pretty good condition. Not spectacular, but the fairways were kept well, the greens rolled true and semi-quick once the morning dew dried. Despite elevation changes, it was not terribly difficult to find a flat lie. As for the staff, that's an entirely different story.

Backdrop: My playing partner planned an entire day of golf consisting of 36 holes. We drove roughly 100 miles (one way) and booked a 7am tee time (we left at roughly 5am). The weekend prior, my partner called to ascertain whether Monday was a normal weekday (this was President's Day) thus enabling him to use a player's card yielding an add'l discount. After being told it was, he called back the next day to speak with someone different and again confirm what he was told the prior day. He was reassured by the employee in the pro shop that Moorpark was in fact considering it a normal weekday. Story: Upon arriving at the course on Monday, we paid and the employee at the pro shop informed my partner that he could not use his player's card b/c it was a holiday, and thus having booked online he would be getting a double discount (something Moorpark does not subscribe to). My partner expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that he was told twice one thing prior to driving in excess of 100 miles to only find out that was not the case. He made it clear that the money was not the issue, but rather the lack of policy consistency. In true gentleman fashion, my partner exclaimed that it was not the fault of the man behind the counter, to which this employee replied, "I know it's not my fault." GREAT customer service there (sarcasm). Anyways....

We had planned on playing 36 holes utilizing Moorpark's replay special of $40. After finishing our first 18 holes, we spoke with the starter to ask about our chances of replay. He stated, "sure...if you don't mind starting at 3:30" (it was 11am at this point). He also said to check in the pro shop. When we did, we were told there was a 11:15 tee time we could have. The guy inside called out to the starter to ask if he could put us in the slot, but the starter said no b/c they were backed up. Keep in mind that while we were on the course we had to pass an extremely slow foursome who backed the course up, and not once during the entire round did we see a marshall on the course. Great course management Moorpark, and way to turn down paying customers when you have an open tee time.

Ultimately, we left and played at Robinson Ranch - a much nicer course with a great and accomodating staff. I will not go back to Moorpark b/c they are rude, unprofessional and terribly disorganized. While the maintenance crew does their job, the rest of the staff is either poorly trained in customer service, or just doesn't care. Either way, there's too much good golf in the area for me to waste my time and money to be treated as if they do not need my business. Your best bet in this area is to head over to Rustic Canyon where the course is definitely better and the staff acts like they're actually glad to see you visit their course.

Great greens and a great challenge for good golfers. Friendly ,helpful staff and a great clubhouse to unwind in. I will be back even if it's just for a drink in the bar.. (you will understand why)

Played here yesterday for the first time, what a nice place to play. Thank goodness for golf carts. I love all those elevated tee boxes. We had 0-5mph winds it was about 85 degree, the greens were very fast and didn't break as you thought it should. Like the greenhornet13 said sand was not raked well. People need to start repairing divets on the greens, but when they buy the tool it may start happening, other than that I will return when I'm not in a best ball tourney to see how I really do..Happy golfing....

played ridgeline/creekside - overall the course is in very good shape and the greens hold nicely and are rolling fast. just too d%mn windy! seems every time out the wind is blowing at least 20mph. some of the traps were very unevenly raked which made for some very interesting lies. other than the wind, it was well worth it.

Played on 12/23, and the Ridgeline and Creekside courses are in excellent condition; however, the Canyon Crest, the easiest of the three, has some thin spots on a couple of the fairways. All three courses offer scenic and challenging holes.

Great conditions, beautiful course. I just prefer to walk and you would have to be a mountain goay to walk this course.

Played on turkey day, Ridgeline/Canyon Crest. I haven't played here almost a year. Beautiful views and the courses are very nice. Fairways are in great shape. Greens are fast and well placed pin placements. Greens are also well protected with bunkers. Thumbs up for the golf courses. Couple of recommendations to the managements.
1. When you charge more than $100, you can afford to give out bottle waters. How much does it cost for a bottle of waters? Last time they did, but now they only give out to members only. Don't be too greedy.
2. Replay fees. Charging more than $50 to replay the course is somewhat OK. But charging same price to replay just the 9 holes are little too expensive. You should have some special prices to play all 27 holes.

Played here day before Thanksgiving. Good course, but not really my style of golf. I enjoy more traditional golf but Moorpark is very much target golf. Great views. Course was in very good shape. ... Continue »

Played here day before Thanksgiving. Good course, but not really my style of golf. I enjoy more traditional golf but Moorpark is very much target golf. Great views. Course was in very good shape. I played Creekside/Canyon. I liked Canyon nine very much. Some good holes over there. More diversity in the design. I'm glad I played it but would probably not go back. It's a "novelty-type" course. I enjoy Rustic Canyon down the road much better. I was a little surprised the customer service wasn't better. I'm Joe Public Golfer, but for a $120 course, you'd think there might be someone to pick up your clubs and take to your cart or wipe them down when you are done, but there was none of that. I don't need those amenities, but I've played cheaper courses with better service. Clubhouse is awesome, however.
