Golf Course Review Sterling Hills Golf Club Camarillo California
Reviewed by: JohnnyGK, Thousand Oaks
The last couple years many golfers have passed on playing Sterling Hills despite it’s great layout due to poor playing conditions (me included) … I am very happy to report not only are those days gone due to new ownership but the golf course is currently in very good shape. So much so, I’m making it my home course.

Had a blast out there Tuesday 6/11 and only see turf improvements continuing. It’s a closer drive for me than the Ventura/Oxnard courses from Thousand Oaks plus better weather. I think anyone coming over the 101 Camarillo grade to tee it up should be consider playing it. They got great deals which include cart and a quality lunch entrée for less than most standard green fees in the region. This place is a steal.
The Review
Greens are in excellent shape. Smooth, medium/fast and holding shots. Fairways provide great lies with only occasional bare spots which most bare spots have been re-sodded, rough is mostly lush, tee boxes in good shape and bunkers not great but certainly playable with mostly firm sand (they are planning on doing some greenside bunker improvements with new sand). During August/September the fairways will struggle due to some of the cool climate turf they are phasing out but in general all other aspects of the golf course should be better.

We’ll be launching a GK Coupon weekday deal soon so be on the lookout for that. I’ll be posting some GK Meet & Play posts when I can sneak out other than my planned rounds.
Check out the photos I posted. Hope to get some rounds in with many GK’ers here.
