The world-class Ojai Country Club was one of the first great golf courses in California. Designed and built in 1923 under the direction of George C. Thomas, Jr. and Billy Bell, the course was hailed as "a marvel of golfing architecture." Thomas, who also designed courses at the Riviera, Bel-Air and Los Angeles country clubs, had two initial considerations for the Ojai course: "...that the average golfer could enjoy his round without too great a penalty, and that a test must be afforded requiring the low-handicap man to play fine golf in order to secure pars." The 18-hole golf course and the greens were toughened considerably in 1988 by famous course designer Jay Morrish. At 6,292 yards from the blue tees, it is a par 70 course with six par 4's over 400 yards, and three par 3's of over 200 yards. The Ojai Valley Inn & Spa has been selected for membership in Great Golf Resorts of the World. See for yourself why the world of professional golf ranks us as one of America's great golf courses...
