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!

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.

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

Front nine is a links style layout and every hole is solid. The back has a lot of quirky holes (11-15-17). The course as a whole is a challenge and you have to be accurate off the tee in order to have a chance to score… especially on the back.
