The Lost Marsh Course
Hammond, IN, USA




The Lost Marsh Golf Club, carved from the industrial heartland of Northwest Indiana, stands as a testament to the region's surprising capacity for natural beauty. This modern links-style course, sculpted across reclaimed marshland, offers a challenging yet fair test for golfers of all skill levels. Designed by Dick Nugent and Ken Killian, The Lost Marsh demands strategic play off the tee. Wide fairways often lead to approaches that require navigating strategically placed bunkers and subtle undulations around the greens. Its proximity to Lake Michigan often introduces unpredictable winds. While The Lost Marsh hasn't hosted major championships, its commitment to providing an exceptional golfing experience has cultivated a loyal and passionate local following. Known for its challenging layout and the ever-present lake breezes, the course provides an experience distinct from the typical midwestern landscape. The 18th hole, a par 5 framed by the Chicago skyline in the distance, offers a memorable finish. The post round haunt in the clubhouse offers the regions best selection of local craft beers and the local membership often hosts live music and comedy nights which helps fosters an active golf community.
