Indiana Golf Courses : Orange County
The rolling hills, scenic valleys, and flowing waters of the area lured the first settlers to Orange County with an abundance of towering timber, varieties of wildlife, and natural shelters for means of survival. The mysterious and magical quality of the land and water is the cornerstone of the county’s history, which officially began in 1815 following an act of the Indiana Territorial Legislature. Long before that act, though, Native Americans inhabited the area. One group, in particular, was known as the Oliver Phase people, a group believed to have been in the area between 1000 and 1500 A.D. They were farmers who lived in small colonies of about 100 people. Shortly before the act of the Indiana Territorial Legislature, settlers from the south began to migrate to Orange County and incorporate many of the customs and traditions of their ways of life into the area. Those ways of life produced some interesting tidbits of colorful history. The name (Orange County) was borrowed from Orange County, North Carolina, the home of many of the early settlers to this county in southern Indiana. The early settlers of Orange County, Indiana depended on corn as the staff of life and it was used to feed the people, as well as animals. Today, it is still removed from the hustle and bustle of the more populated areas, but yet provides tourists with a diversity of activities ranging from outdoor activities to upscale attractions. Let’s see the Indiana Golf Courses in Orange County.

Indiana Golf Courses Comments:
This resort, which is a favorite of basketball legend Larry Bird, features two regulation eighteen hole courses. The Springs Country Club Course was built on hilly terrain, so expect many uneven lies. A stream flows through several holes, so shot accuracy is important at times. The greens are undulating, and the fairways are plush. The Springs Valley Golf Links Course was built in a valley on flat terrain. This course is highlighted by the lake coming into play on a couple of holes. The fairways are wide open, and the greens are small and fast.

Indiana Golf Courses Comments:
This links-style course is very hilly, so you can expect some uneven lies in the fairways. The designer used the natural contour of the land when building this course. Hole 2, a 161-yard, par 3, requires a lengthy tee shot over water, and water hazards come into play on at least seven other holes. The elevated greens are slightly sloped and protected by grass bunkers.
Paoli Country Club

Golf Course Road
Paoli, IN 47454
Phone: 812-723-2110
Holes: 9
Par: 35

Slope: N/A
Status: Public
Season: Open All Year
Indiana Golf Courses Comments:
This short nine hole course puts shot accuracy at a premium. This course is located in a valley, so the terrain is rolling. The fairways are narrow, and the greens are medium in size and speed. There is water that comes into play on two holes.
