Ojai Valley Inn
Played On 07/21/2018Buddies Getaway at OVI
Played here with 15 buddies in July. We were offered a great group rate to hold our annual "North/South" match play tournament. I will write a review that gives my honest evaluation of the course and facility:
LAYOUT: tremendous and challenging course that requires a lot of different shots. (great tip: watch the youtube videos that explain how to play each hole--truly helpful). The views are spectacular on many holes. Bring your camera phone.
CONDITIONS: really good. The greens rolled great and the fairways were well maintained (I don't know about the rough because I never hit into it :)). Sand in the bunkers was even and playable.
STAFF: I communicated with Matt Pavin for about 6 weeks ahead of our playing date, and I have to say he was awesome about staying in touch with me as the day approached. He was willing to set up closest to the pins, long drives, and even had scorecards prepared for our matches (with dots for the stroke holes--a nice touch). The valets and bar staff were awesome. If I have one tiny complain it was that we didn't see a beverage cart until the 9th tee (despite calling and asking on the 5th hole). Not a big deal, but when I did see her, she wasn't all that pleasant to our group.
OVERALL: I will definitely return to OVI to replay this great course and want to thank the staff for their personal attention and excellent golf course.
Oak Creek Golf Club
Played On 06/09/2018Good day with friends
I have always enjoyed the layout at Oak Creek. The greens rolled true and the fairways were pretty tight. There is no rough really in this course. You can putt from off the green on many holes.
The cafe is a good place to start or finish your round. The cart girl came around twice during our round.
