When you get to the parking lot and open your door and the wind is HOWLING, get back in your car and eat a nice breakfast. We toughed it out & couldn't break 100. Balls wouldn't stay on tees or the green. Kinda like the '91 Ryder Cup. Love to try again under calmer conditions. Shot makers course. Great layout.

Great track but on this Saturday afternoon it played very slow and there was a 25 mile an hour breeze. We began at 12:15 pm and did not finish until 5:40 pm. The wind was a factor in the slow play I b... Continue »

Great track but on this Saturday afternoon it played very slow and there was a 25 mile an hour breeze. We began at 12:15 pm and did not finish until 5:40 pm. The wind was a factor in the slow play I believe. Loved the layout and would absolutely play this couse again. There were some rather slow players out there on this day and maybe they should have been playing from a different set of tees but that's public courses. The staff was also a bit cranky at the end of the day in the clubhouse area but I am sure it's because they all wanted to go home. I play courses for the layout and not the staff so their attutide would not keep me away from this one. Overall a great and different game on this links type of layout.

Well worth the 45-minute drive and two-hour wait on the singles list to play this gem again. It's in fantastic shape right now, with very firm greens running medium-fast, and fairways mainly lush wit... Continue »

Well worth the 45-minute drive and two-hour wait on the singles list to play this gem again. It's in fantastic shape right now, with very firm greens running medium-fast, and fairways mainly lush with some thin areas and some bare spots. The rough is lush & pretty thick. My only complaint today was pace of play, which was slower than I've seen it before at Rustic, but that's a minor complaint considering the overall excellent conditions.

If you haven't played Rustic yet, it should be on your list of must-play's. The course is in great condition, it's easy to walk, the staff is good, the rates are very fair, the layout is very interes... Continue »

If you haven't played Rustic yet, it should be on your list of must-play's. The course is in great condition, it's easy to walk, the staff is good, the rates are very fair, the layout is very interesting and the greens are unbelievable, some may be half an acre in size. Bring your best short game and talk nice to your putter on the drive out here or you are in for a long day.

The course is in stellar shape. Love it like this. Maintained just as it should be. Hard, fast greens. When the wind blows, you have to make shots or else. Stay below the hole whenever possible. ... Continue »

Greens are firm and rairly hold. Sand is rocky and mostly firm and easy to chip out but not blast. Greens are NOT level (challenge) sometimes difficult to read break and speed varies from very fast to almost slow. Some very unfair pin placements. Course should suggest that players over 15 SHOULD NOT play from the BLUE tees. Some blue tees require carry over environmental areas of 130 to 200 yards and players over 15 may loose many golf balls or spend too much time looking for them. Overall, good course. Need to add seed to divot mix to help keep fairways green.

Finally got a chance to play this course. Played with two high schoolers from Moorpark who helped me with their course knowledge. An absolute must to play! The course condition was awesome and definitely the closest to British Open-style that I've played. Surprising not as windy as I would have expected. It is imperative to play with someone with course knowledge or buy the yardage book. We played in a little over four hours...teed off at 1:45. Will definitely go back again...and again.

Great Links style course makes it a tough round. Xlnt shape. Greens are tough putting with breaks and downhill putts that look flat. Be careful putting as the ball will fly by the hole if you don't see the downhill.

Course is in great shape. The fairways were excellent and the greens rolled great. The front nine was a little on the slow side as far as pace was concerned, but it really picked up nicely on the back. This course can't be beat when you take the price and the quality of the course into account.
