Camelback Golf Club. Loading interface... Loading interface... Loading interface... Frequently Asked Questions about Camelback Golf ClubHow is Camelback Golf Club rated? Camelback Golf Club has 3.5 stars. What days are Camelback Golf Club open? Camelback Golf Club is open Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun. AboutCamelback Golf Club features two courses, Padre and Ambiente (formerly known as Indian Bend Course). The Ambiente Course underwent a major renovation in 2013. Making the course more eco friendly was one of the major goals of the renovation in addition to improving the layout's playability for a wider range of skill levels. The creatively shaped greens offer a variety of different putting options that present interesting risk-reward opportunities. The renovation added 100 acres of native desert and grass areas that add not only beauty but also require a third less water. Rolling terrain is the defining characteristic of the Ambiente Course, from the undulating fairways to dramatic drops in elevation. There are five sets of tees with forward tees that have easier approach angles and no forced carried, allowing even beginners to approach the golf course with confidence.

Before the overseedI knew that I was booking this reservation one day prior to overseed. The greens, IMO, were a little slow and I could be aggressive. I’ve visited here numerous times and was excited to finally play this course. Staff was great! I’ll be back!!
Difficulty Somewhat Challenging
Weeds galore and rough greensThere were large areas of fairway, fringe, and rough covered in crab grass and nutsedge. The greens were recently punched and very bumpy. A home by the 17th tee box was blaring their music. Condition and atmosphere on this source is more in line with a $45 greens fee, not 2X that.
Bad greens and sand trapsI called before I booked to check o status of the course. The golf shop told me the greens were plugged 3 weeks ago and in great shape. They were done more recently and in terrible shape. Most of the sand traps were un-playable. I would have gone to another course if I was told the truth about the terrible shape of the greens and bunkers. At least the starter should have informed us the th bunkers were under repair. Bad form Camelback!!! The fairways were in great shape. Difficulty Somewhat Challenging
Ambiente coming backTees and fairways excellent- greens about 3/4 the way there to perfect. Great track.

Never DisappointsGreat track! In very good shape even after green’s aerated. Pro shop staff outstanding, friendly and very accommodating. Will definitely go back. Difficulty Somewhat Challenging
Beautiful Course!Friendly staff. A little surprised how short the cart ladies skirt was, I saw more than I wanted to, but maybe I'm going to have to get used to this kind of thing, even at really nice courses. Difficulty Somewhat Challenging
Excellent ahapeSome summer time blemishes but that’s if I am being super picky. The course is in great shape. Go, you’ll have fun.
Great desert courseChallenging somewhat short course but many ways to get into trouble! My husband and I played midday in August the monsoon month for this area! There is a lack of shade so seemed much hotter than temps! I certainly would recommend every golfer add this to their list of courses played.
Camelback adjustsSigned up for Ambiente - upon arrival told they punched greens a week ago. Tried #1 and was too bumpy so they let me go off Padre instead as it was punched a month ago and was in great shape - thanks.
High expectationsThis was our first time playing this course ; it was highly recommended by friends . The course was a ‘goat track” ! I. Was shocked how bad it was maintained ; obviously these course was built in a storm drainage area , and it looked like they had a lot of storms . However, the maintenance of the course left a little to desire , the bunkers were awful, the second cut at the greens was not blown properly and the fairways were less then acceptable . I have never played a course in condition before , we will never play this course again .
Summer rate was greatThe course is normally WAY over priced in the spring. Definitely worth paying the summer rate.
Who designed Camelback Golf?The 7,014-yard, par 72 Jason Straka designed, Ambiente Course offers a distinct challenge where accuracy and a good strategy command the day, as every hole will force even the best players to focus on each and every shot.
