Ottawa's golf market is not as dense as Montreal or Toronto, but the gems they do have are well worth the effort. One of the clubs is Camelot, a Thomas McBroom design to the East of the city. With views of the Ottawa River and hilly terrain, a fun round of golf is to be found here. My full review below:

Jeff, I think it's a lovely and challenging course. You're certainly right about the back being a tough walk. Years ago I recall playing in a tournament (likely the City and District) there on an extremely hot and humid day. My recollection is that players were having a difficult time finishing the back nine, as they were dehydrated and exhausted. I was never so happy to get off a course. Damn, that was a tough walk in that heat. Great course, though.

I'm playing on Thursday and don't want to get too excited. When playing a special course for the first time my only wish is that my game doesn't disappear for the first couple holes.
This is my pre-wedding golf day and the focus should be on good times with friends. But anyone else get the nerves about playing somewhere special the first time? Like a golf trip to Cabot or Bandon? Spending all that money and then your game goes MIA?It's not the wand. It's the wizard.
