Ojai Valley Inn & Spa was fantastic. We had breakfast before our round at the The Oak which was superb. The golf course and the weather could not have been better. We had one issue on the back nine where the short uphill par 3 green was having an issue so they hadn’t mowed it for a few days…otherwise, the course was in great great shape!

Boulder Oaks was a horrible golf experience! We checked in and proceeded to get loaded into our very abused golf golf cart. We got range balls and was horrified by the condition of the driving range. We went to the #1 tee and discovered our first of many situations of not knowing exactly where we were going. The poor condition of the fairways and rough made it difficult to distinguish between the two. The bunkers were in really bad shape and many had grass growing. The one thing that was in good condition were the greens. We finished 18 and discovered the restaurant that was supposed to open at noon was now not opening until 1pm. We will never ever go back!

Our cart was dirty and hadn't been cleaned evident by the old cigar sitting on the ball holder in the middle of the dash area. We also realized on hole 1 that the GPS wasn't working. We went back to the starter and he offered no help. For $80, the carts should be cleaned and working properly. The course itself was great!

I’ve played Beau Pre about 8 times in the last 5 years or so. I played today and it was in the worst shape ever. The tee boxes hadn’t been mowed in days and they were invested with gophers. This aspect of the golf course was the worst. The fairways needed attention. Hole 10B was in play versus hole 14 which is fine BUT the bunker on the right side of the 10B green hadn’t been raked or weeded in months...really? I will say the greens were in great shape. Not good!
