About
Prairie View Golf Club is a Robert Trent Jones, Jr. design – the only one in the state of Indiana. Laid out across 206 acres along the banks of the White River, the course is characterized by rolling prairie land interspersed with stands of oaks and sycamores. In addition to the course’s more than 80 bunkers, five lakes, a stream and natural wetlands provide diverse challenges to golfers playing any of the course’s five sets of tees.

An amazing RTJ Jr., course
Had an outstanding experience on this RTJ Jr., course. It is hard to make a challenging and fun track, but this place manages to do so. Plus, the track was in excellent condition.
The green complexes were difficult, had lots of slope to them and even short putts were difficult. The fairways were lush and the tee boxes were well groomed.
The first couple holes are pretty open but the layout starts to get closer to the trees as your round goes on. The last hole on each nine is quite difficult. The ninth hole has two lakes on it and your approach shot has to curl around a lake.
The back nine has more trees close to the fairways. No. 18 is just a beast of a par 5. Your tee shot has to be a pretty big fade. For most hackers, it is almost impossible to reach in two due to a long forced carry, but the layup is also difficult. Then, your third has to carry a small creek in the front. Quite a challenging way to end the day!
Maybe we lucked out with our tee time but the place was busy but not slow. I think the course is so challenging that maybe it scares off a lot of beginners. Just a lot of difficult shots but I had a blast playing it. After my round ended, I really wanted to go right back out and try it again! It is pretty expensive but well worth it.
Beautiful and Great Condition
I don't play a lot of golf in the Midwest, but if this course is representative, I need to. Beautiful course that was in great condition. Quite a bit of rain the day before we played, but the course handled it well with the fairways remaining firm and the greens holding well. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.
Challenging . Good experience
Paid $71 for a Saturday afternoon. Enjoyed the course . Gold tees . 9 handicap
Had quite a bit of rain in previous 24hrs, course/greens were in great shape but majority of bunkers were mudholes. Very, very rare for this course.
Evan’s Scholar ForeCaddie
Forecaddie program for Evan’s scholars is awesome! Course is in great shape and they keep the pace of play even on a busy Sunday. Great track!
Best Semi Private Course in Central Indiana
Great and challenging golf course that is second to none in the area. It was very busy but the pace of play was still really good for a Saturday.
Prairie View: one of my favorite places to place
great condition…. GPS is excellent, and speeds up play.
Top tier public course
Beautiful course, immaculate greens. Through 18 holes in under 4 hours on a relatively busy week day. Big Lug Brewery beer/food menu in clubhouse is an excellent bonus!
Great course
Strong layout some visually intimidating holes, fun green complexes, great staff and facility. Could play everyday.
Excellent course all aroind
There is nothing bad to say about this course. Everything is top notch here. There course is in excellent condition. It always is but it was spectacular for this time of year. The off-season rate made it a good value. The regular rate is pricey but the course is worth it. If you get that chance to play here...Do it!!
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at Prairie View Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
