Idle Creek Golf Course

This course was by far in the best condition of any course in west central Indiana. Given the dry, hot weather over the past couple of months, Idle Creek had lush smooth greens and tee boxes. Fairways had a few brown areas, but were generally very green and exceptionally smooth. Staff was very welcoming and pace of play exceptionally fast. We had two foursomes in front of our twosome but never had to wait for them to clear and finished our round in 3:15.

A great gem that I look forward to playing more often when I’m in western Indiana.

For $60 a round I would expect the fairways would have grass. It's the end of August not September and it was nothing but brown patches with a little green mixed in. Would give it a better rating if the course had grass.

Required a driver’s license to rent a cart at the pro shop. You will later found out that you are driving through residential area on the way to back 9.

Please head toward Pro-shop after front 9 and go through the tunnel.

With the changes in elevation and well place water hazards, this track can be a challenge for people playing for the first time. The greens were excellent. Smooth and fast with plenty of break for weekend golfers.

Despite a parking lot that was less than half full, we had to wait on available golf carts, were told they had no range balls and discovers they had not portable coolers for the drinks we purchased. The hotdog bun I was sold could not be eaten. Hard as a rock. Very small changes could have made this a 5 star rating but too many little things were missing.

I played Idle Creek a couple of years ago and while enjoyable, was not overly impressed with it. What a difference since the last time I played. Outstanding fairways and fast, but consistent greens. Given the rain and storms in the area for several days prior to my round, I was very impressed that there was no standing water any where on the course. Was surprised at how empty the course was given the outstanding weather. It's definitely on my Play Again list for when I'm back in Terre Haute!

Had to wait for a cart, but the course was in great shape. Tight fairways

Course was in good condition. Some fairways were tight. But presented a challenge. Greens were in good shape as well.

My play was ugly. The course was fantastic. Large well maintained greens. A little confusing on the back 9 when you have to drive thru the subdivision(not enough signs on which way to go). Great value for what you get. Friendly staff and a great pro shop. Great food.

Course has a very good layout for a subdivision course. Only two holes on back 9 are cramped. The greens are modern and in good condition.

I would add this course to your list if in the area.

It was my first time playing this course and wow was I impressed. I was just passing through for work and wanted to try a local course. I can’t believe it only cost me $23 with cart. By far one of the nicest courses I have played at for the same price as your local muni

This course has a lot of potential. That being said there are a lot of terrible things about this course. In the summer time this course is burnt on half of the course and flooded on the other half do to terrible drainage and over watering. Hole 9 is a par 3 And half of the green is dead and ate up from grubs. I will say the course is in a beautiful subdivision with great views. It’s a short course but can be very challenging if you are not good off the of the tee a lot of water, out of bounds, and lots of heavy wooded areas to lose balls in. I think this course needs a team that is well versed in maintaining a golf course

Been seeing this course on Hot Deals and always wanted to try it. Pics looked good and reviews were too, but you never know until you go! I was pleasantly surprised! First off, nice staff greeted me. Has nice clubhouse and plenty of room. The course is not overly long but challenging. Some tight tee shots, plenty of water and the greens are slick. Beautiful homes surround the course. It's a little out of the way for me, but I certainly will return to play it again. With a Hot Deal it makes the drive worth it. Hidden Gem.
