Probably one of the nicest municipal courses you can play in Southern California. Awesome track, good value at $49 for greens fees. It can get really hot in the summer with not a lot of shade and still the course was in good shape. Because it’s so popular rounds can get a bit long I hear but we finished in 5 hours on a summer Sunday which is respectable in my opinion. Overall a great day and would recommend.

Soule Park Golf Course is an absolute gem nestled in the scenic landscape of Ojai, California, and it’s only about 80 minutes from Los Angeles! From start to finish, my experience here was exceptional. The course is incredibly well-maintained, with lush, vibrant green grass that provides the perfect playing surface. You can tell the staff takes immense pride in keeping it pristine. The surroundings are simply stunning—rolling fairways lined with mature trees, picturesque rivers winding through the course, and charming bridges that add to the course’s natural beauty. The serene landscape is full of wildlife; I saw plenty of ducks, rabbits, and birds, which added to the peaceful, almost magical atmosphere. It’s easy to get lost in the tranquility of this place. The course itself was an excellent value—just $30 to play and $12 for a golf cart, which is a fantastic deal considering the quality of the course and the breathtaking views. Playing as the sun began to set was a highlight; the golden hues over the mountains and rivers made for an unforgettable backdrop and the perfect end to the day. If you’re in Ojai, Los Angeles, or anywhere nearby, Soule Park is a must-visit for any golf enthusiast or anyone looking to enjoy a beautiful day in nature. Can’t wait to return!

This is the first time visiting this place, living here for almost 20 years...lol...My very good friend took me for my Birthday.. it was wonderful to spend time.But, everything was ok!!Got a yummy drink, yes ur girl is a fruity drink kinda girl. That was tweeked for me liking. I would recommend this place if u want a quick bite to eat. Hang out and chill..the only down fall is the ride in...horrible roads broken and very bumpy..i had to say that, but it truly doesnt say anything about the restaurant itself. Just alittle side note. Go and try it out. Be the judge for yourself...😊enjoy!!
