Soule Park is municipal golf course located 15 miles north of Ventura off the 101 in the Ojai Valley just a few miles inland from the pricey Ojai Valley Inn and Spa.
The course moves over relatively level topography along generous tree lined corridors with a barranca and Thacher and San Antonio Creeks bisecting and frequently in play. There’s +/- 45 sand bunkers defending the generous landing zones and greens of varying shapes and contours. It’s rated as one of the best municipal golf courses you can play in the U.S. and with green fess at less than $40 it’s hard to disagree. There’s five sets of tees from the Lemon tees at 5,236 yards to Oak tees at 6,856, the the Avocado tees are 6,159 yards, 69.5/120, course/slope ratings, originally designed by William Bell in 1962 with a 2005 redesign by Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner.
