    I visited Soule Park Golf Course on Sunday, March 22 for the first time, and I have to say--it…read moreexceeded my expectations. We had a 2 PM tee time but arrived early to warm up, and right away the atmosphere stood out. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made a big difference as a newer golfer. Special shoutout to Jonny--he was bartending but also out golfing, and he took the time to give me helpful tips and even treated me to a coffee. That kind of genuine hospitality is rare and really elevated the experience. The course itself is beautiful. You get stunning Ojai valley views throughout, and the layout is both enjoyable and beginner-friendly while still being engaging. The grounds were clean and well-maintained overall. There are some areas with a running stream, which does attract a fair amount of bugs, but it's understandable given the natural setting. You can also tell they're actively investing in improvements--there was some visible construction, but it didn't take away from the experience. If anything, it shows they're working to make the course even better. Price-wise, it's a great value. It was about $20 cheaper than the Ojai Valley Inn course, which makes it a solid option without sacrificing quality. We ended up playing 9 holes since we had dinner reservations, but I easily could've stayed longer. There's also a restaurant on-site, which is a plus, though we opted for sushi elsewhere. Overall, this was an amazing first experience, and I can confidently say this might be my new favorite place to golf. I'll definitely be back. Thanks again, Jonny! AS ALWAYS THESE ARE MY OPINIONS.

    Beautiful course. Best player before June when it gets HOT. Great Bar after playing.read more

    Spanish Hills Club is amazing. So clean and modern. The best kept secret in Ventura County. The…read moregolf course is such a fun and challenging layout. The greens are great and speed of play is excellent. The tennis and pickleball has its own pro shop and stadium court and the pool is fantastic. They have a social membership and a pool membership where you can dine at Topa Restaurant which is amazing. I highly recommend checking out this club for their amenities, having an event and especially joining.

    This is a golf only review based on one playing in Summer of 2021 for a charity scramble. I have no…read moreopinion of membership, club or anything else except what I actually mention. The facts: Course is hilly. Fairways narrow. Rough is easy. Sand is consistent and nice. Trees are plentiful and well maintained, offering some shade and bordering fairways. Greens ran about 10 and were in very nice condition, as was the whole course. This is not a walkable course. Plays 5835 from Whites, 6278 from Blues and 6748 from Blacks. Par is 71. Rating: 72.4-68, Slope 135-123. Practice facilities: Range is wonky. It's very narrow (not the range itself, the area between the cart path and the hill's edge), only about 15 bays and is so downhill that it's really difficult to adjudge distance. The balls are standard range balls (not restricted) and fairly new. The putting green was well maintained, the size of a very long green, 80' X 35'? (est). The putting green was quite sloped, but was very consistent with stimp on greens. I saw no chipping/pitching or bunker practice area, but I could have missed it. Clubhouse: Super standard new private club architecture. Nice but nothing special. Lockers and bathrooms and facilities very clean and a bit generic. Staff: I had just a couple interactions with SH staff as it was a charity tourney run by volunteers but the ones I did talk to were particularly nice, in a genuine way. GOLF COURSE. Let me just get this out of the way. I have no idea why anyone would be a member of a course that is unwalkable, but hey, differences in tastes is what makes things interesting. So, I played in a scramble tourney from the whites and I'm a 5 handicap so I shouldn't be playing from the whites, but you know, whatever. This course at 6748 would be quite different than from 5835. And when you are playing a scramble the tactics are SO different than if you are playing for score and playing the course for the first time. Once one of my team members was in the fairway at 200-250, I'd just bomb it, trying to drive the green or close. Half the par 4's are drivable or close. If I played this course from gross score, I'd pretty much never hit driver from the whites probably not even from the tips. I'd be hitting a 4 iron. There are SO many blind tee shots. I'm not a fan. I do not like courses built into the sides of hills. You don't know what the tee shots are going to do. So many times I hit shots to the left side of the fairway and they ended up on the right or visa versa. If you are playing this course for the first time and aren't going to be playing it a lot, and not in a scramble, play ultra conservatively. I lost a couple drives that I hit exactly where I wanted to hit them but then I realized my target was off. The one thing that helps is the touch-screen GPS on the carts. Use it! I should have done a better job with that. It can really help you pick your spots. Speaking of carts. Enter through the fairways through the yellow stakes as indicated or the cart will seize up on you sometimes. And the cart seats are really comfy, too. So, yeah. This course is like so many courses in OC and Ventura counties that are built into the side of hills. I've played and reviewed quite a few of them. Not a fan. I only play when it's about hanging out with friends or free golf (as opposed to just pure golf scoring), but if you like these type of courses, this is a pretty good one. Well maintained. Great greens (on par with LACC, Annandale, Rustic Canyon, Hacienda, Oakmont). Have Fun. FORE!
