Review by: Andy	Make the trip and you won't be disappointed. Recently renevated course has made this a great place to play! The back tees are a strong test for the low handicapper. Fairways and greens are in excellent condition. Good Luck on the ninth green.(keep it below the hole)

Phillip J. Rotella Municipal Golf Course -- *Great Course! Well maintained and well run...........*
Review by: Peter	Enjoyed this sleeper of a course. Being a transplant from California to the metropolitan area I found it difficult to get a tee time at a golf courses for under a $100 bucks. Rotella was very enjoyable. I was able to get a tee time through the automated system, played in under 4 hours which is exceptional for a public municipal course, and enjoyed the restaurant as well. The greens were in perfect shape and the staff was very courteous. They also had a hole location sheet on the golf cart defining the hole location. I'd rate it 4 stars!

Phillip J. Rotella Municipal Golf Course -- *Awesome renovation*
Review by: Chris	After playing here a week ago, you would never recognize the course from 3 years ago. Tee boxes are in great shape along with the fairways and greens. Changes made to the 4th and 15th if I remember correctly. Worth the trip and you wont be disapointed.

Hillcrest Golf Club
"Shape your game"
I grew up the area playing this course weekly for many years.I shaped my game at this little gem. Sixteen years later I play golf in Austin and work with a team of middle school golfers. As for Hilcrest...The first 3 holes are par 3s.(W/9,5/6, W/SW) They added some water to number one and moved the tee years ago. It puts a whole new spin on number one. People are less likely to hit the cars in the parking lot and/or Mr. Wilson's house too. Huge pines could save your ball from a feild(now the driving range) on the left if you are hooker.People teeing off on number eight and on 7's green also come in to play for some bad slicers. Three had a huge Oak that came into play for high wedges coming in from the left side. Water fountain at 4 was nice In July and august. Number 4 is a ~310yard par 4. Little ditch running accross about 270? made many people lay-up. Eagleable on many days. Another par 3 follows a treeline for Hole 5 and then my favorite par 4 is next. Over a wide lake...that eats up every bad slice for righties. Another eagleable ~300yarder. The lake has nice size bass in it too. Seven is the only par 5, a dogleg to the right. Eight is a par 4 with a huge ditch eating drives by the minute. And we end with a par 4, left dogleg that is reachable with a crush over the corner. Lights added make night golf fun! Drving range is huge so you have plenty of swing room.

Clifty Creek Golf Course
"Aluxinterior course review"
Clifty Creek is a subtle golf course isolated in the southern Indana landscape. Devoid of the typical golf snobbery this is a great course to relax with friends or work on your game. The only thing that this course is lacking is another nine holes and more sand traps, but I believe both are currently under construction.

Maple Ridge Golf Club
"Great Course"
I play this course about twice a week. It is wonderful, a true championship course at a cheap price. I would recommend it to anyone.

Walden Ponds Golf Club
"Golf Outing"
I played in two outings at Walden Ponds golf club in 2003 and I found that the attention to detail was outstanding in both instances. The staff was extremely helpful and the golf course was one of the finest conditioned courses that I played in 2003 including private clubs. I highly recommend that you experience this golf course.
