The world-class Ojai Country Club was one of the first great golf courses in Southern California. Designed and originally 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." Two will play two rounds at the Club, which are included in your package. When in Ojai, don't forget to visit some local vineyards and taste some fine California wines. You can also bike the Ojai Valley Trail, go horseback riding, indulge in spa treatments at the Inn or take in one of the many festivals occurring throughout the year in the local area.
