Bear Slide is about 15 minutes north of the north side of Indianapolis off US 31 in Cicero.

The front side is flat, open and more links-like while the back is parkland style along tree lined and hilly fairways in a natural setting with each hole isolated and unique. There's water in play on 13 holes either lakes or streams, and it's well bunkered both along the fairways and greens. It was designed by Dean Refram and plays to 6,998 yards from the tips, 74.1/136, course/slope ratings with four shorter tee boxes.
