Camargo Club is a storied private golf club founded in 1925 in the Indian Hill neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, featuring an 18-hole course designed by Seth Raynor. Raynor's layout is widely regarded as one of his finest works, incorporating classic template holes such as the Redan and Biarritz drawn from his mentor C.B. Macdonald's interpretations of historic British designs.
