I recently had the pleasure of visiting this golf course, and I was impressed by its excellent condition. Moreover, the green fees are very reasonable. I'd like to extend my gratitude to Mr. Gary Wiseman for his outstanding customer service. He always greets golfers with a smile and is eager to assist everyone to the best of his ability.

Still a great course. Love it, but it's quite difficult if you go off the fairway and right now because the rough is... quite rough! Easy to lose your ball and get a bunch of foxtails in your socks looking for it. Still a fun course and challenging. Still lots of people don't fix their ball marks on the greens. Sure wish that newer golfers would learn etiquette and golf course care.

Las Olivas Links never disappoints. It has everything going for it especially the weather. A very well thought out course with reasonably well balanced degrees of difficulty for every hole. The holes all look easy at first until approach. Some of them are especially hard to navigate around the green. A great experience all around. Walkers and riders are all welcome.

I love this course. Beautiful scenery when the native areas are in bloom. The greens were great. It's one of the best public courses anywhere near Los Angeles.

Real link style golf course. Nearly perfect fairway & green condition. True rolling on green. Give up finding your ball when you missed fairway. Was so hard to play with 25m/h wind.

Pretty underwhelming. A lot of people hyped this placed up so maybe that’s why I was expecting more. Course - the course was good! Good layout, challenging holes, and fast greens. It gets tougher in the back tho. Tee boxes could have been better tho. Facilities - the pro shop was a container but people already told me that beforehand so it was okay. Restrooms could have been cleaner tho, and cubicles should have had locks. Golf carts - worn down. We had to change carts because our first one was going so slow. Seats looked like it was slashed by wolverine or chewed by angry golfers. I mean,…

Hands down the Best Greens in the County!! Fantastic links type course that has the feel of a course in Ireland!! Challenging greens, fairways, but not a super long course. The ocean breeze plays a factor in shot & club selection. Overall it's a superb course to play for all handicaps.

Beautiful course with excellent practice facilities and driving Range. The courses is minutes away from the Ventura Harbor and the beach .probably the closest golf course in Ventura county to the beach. The wind plays a big factor here. The clubhouse is makeshift of two temporary trailers with no bar or eating facilities. However , you can purchase a cold beer and a hotdog , that’s it for now , I will provide an update for you on that , it’s a work in progress.

This golf course was enjoyable. The reason for not giving it 5 stars is that the driving range has grease available but they still put us on the mats. In addition, they scheduled 3 groups of 4 to tee off in consecutive 10 minute increments…. That is not good enough. The PGA tour doesn’t even bunch groups together that much.

Don’t play on Saturdays. Over 5 hour round, no ranger/Marshall. Greens in decent shape

Beautiful links course, cannot compare it to any oceanside course in the LA area. The greens were a bit rough and slow, but there will be aerification on the 8th and 9th. Greens will be in better conditions 2 weeks after, so I highly recommend playing then. Fairways and teeboxes are always in good shape. Overall, a really good course, and I highly recommend playing here. Well known course for residents in the ventura & and Thousand Oaks area, but for those in San Fernando and santa clarita, definitely go check it out. (Hidden gem imo)
