Played ANGC with a early afternoon tee time. The course was again in good condition and with a nice green look to it. No dry out or dirt spots observed, conditions are rated a 4.49 out of 5 overall. I note the following:

Tee Boxes: Level and lush, no damage. Above average.
Fairways: Green and tight, no damage. Above average.
Greens: Green, firm, and fast, no damage. 11ish in speed. Above average.
Sand: Well maintained and packed. Above average.
Rough and Waste Areas: Well maintained and defined. Above average.
Driving Range: Hitting off grass that was thin. Above average.
POP: 4 hours and 30 minutes; waited for the group ahead of us on numerous holes.

As previously reviewed, this course is a desert layout that requires control off the tee and into greens. Greens roll fast but hold good shots. ANGC is an excellent layout that can be enjoyed by any reasonably consistent golfer. I recommend this course, especially if a discounted rate is found.

ANGC is a solid player's layout. Recommended if you have the game for the course and don't mind paying $100+ for a round of golf. I believe at $100 - $120 it is totally worth it if you have good playing conditions and proper pace of play... I again endorse ANGC!

Rustic is again looking good!

Another blessed afternoon at Rustic! It was a sunny with some cloud cover in the 70s with mild wind. Pace of play was around 4:45.

I note the following conditions:

Tee Boxes: Level most of the time and green, no significant damage. Condition good.

Fairways: Green, lush, and defined from rough. Condition very nice.

Greens: Green, medium in speed, with softness. Speed about a 10.5ish in speed with challenging pin placements. Condition very nice.

Sand: well maintained, and firm. Condition good.

Rough: well maintained and defined, about 3 – 5 inches. Condition very nice.

Native Areas: Native areas were wild with no significant maintenance that offered little to no recovery potential. Condition good.

Practice Areas: great range, chipping area, and putting green. Hitting off turf matts!

Putting green was excellent.

Loved Rustic, again! Customer service received was also great at the pro shop and food was A+ at the restaurant, as we stayed for dinner, as we always do.

As previously reported, this is an excellent course that excels in consistency. A great public course in Ventura County!

Already looking forward to the next opportunity to play here again!

Played a scramble tournament here on Veterans Day. The course was in great condition. The greens were rolling true and medium fast. Fairways and rough were in good shape with great lies all day long. We were not in any bunkers but the sand looked great: white, soft, and nicely raked. Tees were level and lush. I recommend this course.

Greens are terrible. Slow and bumpy. Need to be cut and rolled.

Played today in beautiful weather on Veterans Day. Hats off to all my brother/sister veterans and those who went before us. Please never forget what they gave to America.

They had the course set up very nice from tee to green. Course is lush and green set amongst vineyards over looking the Napa Valley.

We even got to pay the Sr Wed fee of $34 on a holiday. ... » More

Tee boxes all nice and receptive.

Fairways wide with rollout good lies and excellent coverage.

Traps were all clean and playable no complaints.

Greens were mowed and chipped putted terrific all round.

Great customer service from all levels of staff.

A great layout with 6 par 3's and 6 par 5's giving one plenty of scoring opportunities.
