About this course

Saticoy, carved into the rolling hills of Somis, California, whispers tales of classic California golf. The original design, crafted in the mid-1960s, unfolds across a landscape marked by gentle undulations and strategic bunkering, a reflection of its era. While not hosting professional championships, Saticoy presents a solid test for accomplished golfers looking to experience quintessential Southern California golf. The course demands strategic play as the layout is on the shorter side. Its design favors the thinking golfer who can properly manage their game from tee to green, plotting their way around dog legs and utilizing the slopes of the fairways to their advantage. Saticoy is, at its heart, a haven for its dedicated membership. Its the type of club where generations have grown up playing and working at the club. It is a place known for its close-knit camaraderie. The annual member-guest tournaments are fiercely competitive, yet imbued with a spirit of genuine friendship, and the club's famed taco nights are a weekly highlight. Ultimately, Saticoy offers a warm and inviting golf experience rooted in tradition and community.

Getting there

Saticoy Country Club sits in the rural heart of Ventura County, roughly ninety minutes northwest of Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), the primary gateway for most visitors traveling to this quietly exclusive enclave. The drive itself traces a deliberate retreat from the urban sprawl of greater Los Angeles, threading through the agricultural valleys and oak-studded hillsides that define inland Ventura County before arriving at the club's discreet entrance near the small community of Somis. Private aviation options are available through nearby Santa Paula Airport (SZP), a preferred alternative for those seeking a more intimate arrival, situated just twenty minutes south of the property. The final miles unfold along quiet country roads lined with citrus groves and native chaparral, a landscape that feels worlds removed from the coast, offering a serene prelude to one of Southern California's most understated private clubs.
