THE LANDING AT FORT HARRISON
🇺🇸 Terre Haute, IN, USA
Designed by Ron Kern

The Landing at Fort Harrison occupies land on the grounds of a former military installation in Terre Haute, Indiana. Designed by Ron Kern, the course reflects his approach to creating playable layouts that work with existing terrain rather than imposing dramatic earthmoving. The property's military heritage provides an unusual backdrop for a golf course, with the routing making use of the relatively level to gently rolling topography characteristic of west-central Indiana.
Kern's design emphasizes strategic options from the tee and around the greens, allowing golfers of varying skill levels to navigate the course according to their abilities. The layout incorporates natural features and mature trees where they existed, while the bunkering and green complexes provide definition and challenge without excessive penal elements. Water features come into play on several holes, typical of courses built on reclaimed institutional land where drainage and retention ponds often factor into the design.
The Landing serves as a public facility, making quality golf accessible in the Terre Haute area. The course fits within the regional golf landscape of Indiana, where municipal and daily-fee courses often occupy repurposed land. The setting offers a quiet, somewhat removed atmosphere given its location on former Fort Harrison grounds, distinguishing it from more conventional residential or commercial golf developments in the region.
