Purgatory Golf Club

Purgatory presents a challenging but fair test of golf. The course was in very good condition, with healthy grass on the tees and fairways and smooth greens. We played at our own pace and enjoyed a fun day on a quality golf course for a great price.

Great day....great course as always.....the wind blew hard and purgatory doesn't need help to provide more of a challenge from the tips....greens where quick and fair....John and the staff where gracious as always...

The course was in good condition and fairly challenging. The only problem was that it was the hottest day of 2014 and all of the water jugs on the course were empty. That should not have been the case. It was brutal without having any water out there.

First time at purgatory. Beautiful course with challenges galor. Be ready to hit some demanding shots with trouble on every hole. If your a pretty good golfer, this is a treat! I'll be back, but I will practice some more before I go! Great fun.

I was in Indiana for a wedding and some golf with the family, this was the second course we played, as it had a good reputation. We drove 45 minutes to play. The Staff was friendly and had us ready to go quickly. The tee boxes where in below average condition, especially the par 3 holes. We had a hard time finding a spot to place the ball. The fairways are hit or miss with brown patches and weeds. The greens are in average condition, but seem to be cut a little too low. I would not recommend this course to anybody especially at $75 a round. This course may be ok to play at $25 and no more. We had 2 carts and both GPS data gave varying distances even when sitting side by side. A lot of the time this distances were off 20-30 yards off and made this tool a waste of time. The round was also delayed by High School Golf Teams practicing and seemed to be moving slow. They need to schedule them around less busy times and not on Saturday mornings. We played Hawks Trail In Greenfield and it was in beautiful condition and less than half the price.

I play here often. The wind and direction adds to the degree of difficulty. It is important to play the correct tee markers based on your handicap. Use the computer GPS on the cart or your own to determine correct angle of attack (s) on doglegs and it is extremely important to play from the fairways on this track. I hit every club in the bag when I play 18 holes. This is a strategic golf course and fun to play. Bunkers frame nearly every shot from tee to green. Greens are large and undulating and can get quick.

I really enjoyed this course. Links style gets a bit repetitive, but it was challenging, and rewarded good shots.

Purgatory was everything I expected and more. Set up like a PGA course with tight fairways and huge greens. Not much water but tons of bunkers. I called 17 a mine field because like the island green at Sawgrass this was nothing but bunkers from tee to green and behind. At least you didnt lose a ball form being short or long. A huge tip is to know where your line is after you hit your shot. With the bunkers and the the tall thick roughs its easy to lose a ball. Take a couple extra sleeves just in case.

Great course no homes to navigate thru it's a nice open feel. Conditions were not up to par with price, but the weather had been horrible for this spring I will try again this summer.

Had a Great Experience - I dont really like to pay alot to play golf ccourses so getting on this course for under $40 was great. Course was in great condition for the time of year and the cart was clean and in good working condition. I will definitely play there again. Practice facilities are the best I've seen.

The day was cool, around 45-50, slight breeze and the course had taken a lot of rain the day before. Overall, good drainage, greens were in good shape, fairways excellent.
If you have played Purgatory before, I'm told they have mowed the rough down alot from what it used to be. Since the course is links-like, this makes it more playable.

green wasn't the greatest condition as before but overall this golf course is just great and chanllenging.

I love this course. I only wish it were closer to home so I could play it more often. The fairways are in good shape and have good landing zones. If you miss them you will scramble to score for sure. Greens roll fast and true.

We were really expecting a premier course, but were very surprised with the way the fairways, greens, bunkers, and even the tee boxes were unkempt. Tall weeds, dandelions on the greens and tee boxes - just overall, the place looked like it had not been taken care of.

Interesting course to play, but for the price they're charging, really expected more. Not sure we'd go back even with the sweet Golfnow deal we bought.

Conditions could be better. The bunkers were below average for this course but still overall in good condition. The pace was too slow. They seemed unaware of how the folders were keeping pace or pack thereof

Beautiful course especially this early in the year. Green were rolling true and fair. Can be a bit pricey but worth the money. I would play this course every week if i lived closer to the north side.

very windy cool sunny day made course play long, but still very fun. sand bunkers were in very good condition.

Greens roll great/ lots of undulations,
fairways are a little long but ok
tees ok
rough needs attention in some areas
heather is ok but lots of weeds in heather that causes weeds in some areas around fairways
greens were a little firm and easy to 3 putt if not careful

Loved it! Had a great time! The greens were nice, the course was in great shape!

Hardest course ever. This course will let you know the weaknesses in your game (or maybe your whole game is weak). It's insane but fun just for the fact it's out of this world challenging. The greens are immaculate and roll perfect. They have the best carts and GPS I've ever seen at a course. It's actually a touch screen so that you can point to spots on the hole and get instant yardages.
