The best golf courses in Indiana

“Hardest course I’ve ever played with almost zero room for error. Really cool layout and world class hospitality. But even a good player could lose five balls in a round.”

“Simply the best 9 hole course in America. Big, bold land movements. The course feels like a rollercoaster. Unique twists and turns around every corner. Such a great place. Facilities are bare bones, but the golf is so good. Best preserved L&M course there is.”

“Played it a week after the KFT Championship, fastest greens I’ve ever played (~12 stimp with crazy slopes) and was told they were quicker for the championship. Hardest course I’ve played so far. Obviously bad shots were punished but didn’t feel like good shots were as rewarding.”

“Great mix of short and long par 3 and 4s. Good use of elevation changes. Greens are huge and roll fast. More forgiving off the tee than it initially looks but you're rewarded for taking on the challenge off the tee by having an easier approach.”

“Always in fantastic shape. Some difficult holes to play conservative on and some score able holes to get after. Certainly a golf course where precision with approach shots and course management is paramount. Definitely a hidden gem of central Indiana!”

“Holes 1-5 feel drastically different than the rest of the course. 6-14ish are tight and value placement more than anything. Playing further back tees will open up fairways and let you hit driver more. Greens are in great shape and pace was fantastic.”

“Fantastic course that's a great value. Can be frustrating at times when ball runs through fairway into the long grass and can't be found.”

“Very cool Pete Dye design with 4 holes inside the track and a couple of others backing up to it. Well worth the visit for the experience and architecture.”

“The Donald Ross Course at French Lick was my favorite of the two courses. It doesn’t overwhelm you with forced carries or tricks—it quietly challenges you with rolling terrain, clever bunkering, and some of the best green complexes you’ll ever play.”

“Extremely challenging especially with the wind. Some pins are unattackable and many holes with extremely tight landing areas with driver. Fun challenge”

“Chariot Run is one of Indiana’s most underrated public courses. Wide fairways tempt you to swing freely, but the thick rough and slick bentgrass greens demand precision.”

“It’s always in great shape. The practice facility offer a short game area with shots from fairway, rough and sand. The rough is thick and dense a real challenge. The staff is friendly and helpful and has a restaurant and bar. Cart girls are there on weekends.”

“Not a super long course but need to make sure to miss in the proper locations. A very strategic course. The bunkers were in fantastic shape!”
