RiverBend GC near London, Ontario
At the RiverBend Golf Community on the western edge of London, Ontario, you'll find rolling hills and no children. In fact, you won't find anybody under 50.
How do you design a golf course for those of a certain age? Well, you make the bunkers easy to get in and out of, for both golf balls and tired legs. None of those deep pot bunkers; the sand at RiverBend is designed to be penal, of course, but also to give golfers "easy access through walk-in and walkout elevations," according to course literature. Residents can also buy their own golf carts and link it to the club's GPS system - just open the garage door, give her the gas and leave the car in the drive.
