| - I played Camelback - Indian Bend Course, today and had a very pleasant time. It is a flat, easy course with very little elevation change. A golfer need not be able to hit the ball long, as there are no holes that require a carry. They had over seeded the course several weeks before, so it would be hard to tell what condition the fairways would be when grown in. However, the greens were perfect, although fairly hard. It is a well maintained course, and the facilities are befitting a resort course.
This was a practice round for me, as I just wanted to try the course during the low rate season. I played two and sometimes three balls, as there was no one behind me, and a foursome in front. So it was quite an enjoyable morning, and I would recommend this course, especially in the summer season - since there are numerous trees to sit under, and it isn't very crowded.
I wish I had the option to give it 3.5 stars - I liked it better than the Orange Tree Resort, as it was maintained better, and didn't seem as old. More importantly, the greens were much better that Orange Tree's, and the facilities were much, much better. But Orange Tree's course was a little more challenging, had more doglegs, and more water hazards that came into play.
