Golf Resort Villages:
Golf Yes, Hassles No

In the past two decades, innovative developers have created the golf resort village, a self-contained, walkable complex that gives guests, especially non-golfers, a selection of on-site activities and reduces logistic and transportation hassles.

Two well-known examples are North Carolina's Pinehurst and Florida's World Golf Village (see photo), home to the World Golf Hall of Fame. Others include:

• Boulders Resort & Golden Spa in Carefree, Arizona, outside of Scottsdale. It spans approximately 2,000 acres in the Sonoran Desert foothills. Two golf courses, a Golden Door Spa, five swimming pools and El Pedregal, a shopping, dining and cultural marketplace.
• Lake Las Vegas in Nevada, 17 miles from the Strip, is one of the most extravagant in the golf-village genre.
• Celebration, near Orlando, Florida, is a Disney-concept town with a golf course, hotels, movie theater, shops and restaurants.
• Casa de Campo, in the Dominican Republic, has three golf courses, a hilltop Italian-style village and a marina village.
• Sandestin in Destin, Florida, contains four golf courses, a marina and Baytowne Wharf pedestrian village.
• WaterColor, near Panama City, Florida, is a coastal resort/residential community with a core village, hotel
and Tom Fazio golf course.
