About this course

Elk Run is a public golf course located in Jeffersonville, Indiana, designed by Ben Wihry. The facility serves the southern Indiana community across the Ohio River from Louisville, Kentucky, offering accessible golf in a region with a modest but steady golfing tradition. The course operates under the Elks organization, reflecting the fraternal club's longstanding involvement in recreational amenities for members and the broader public. The layout occupies terrain typical of the Ohio River valley region, where gently rolling topography and mature tree coverage characterize much of the playing corridors. Courses in this area generally feature parkland-style designs with tree-lined fairways, modest elevation changes, and strategic bunkering that rewards accurate shot placement over pure distance. Water features, whether natural or constructed, often come into play on several holes, adding variety to the routing. Elk Run serves primarily as a community course for local golfers, providing a straightforward test suitable for players of varying skill levels. The design emphasizes playability while maintaining enough challenge to keep regular visitors engaged. The facility includes standard practice areas and a clubhouse that supports casual dining and social gatherings typical of Elks lodge operations. The course represents the kind of unpretentious, accessible golf that forms the backbone of the game in smaller American cities, where affordability and convenience matter as much as design pedigree.
