Do not play here

I want to love coffin - the layout is more the just shoot straight and don’t miss. But the course conditions are just abysmal. It feels like you’re hitting off concrete with ever shot. Even in the fairways. The tee boxes are not mowed at all. Good luck finding a place to put your tee or an even spot to stand in. The greens are fun and offer a good challenge, but they are spotty too. I will not be playing here again. Many other courses that are in far better shape near by.

Conditions were awesome

If you haven’t played coffin in the last 3 years, you’re missing out. The course is a test to skill and beautiful at the same time. One that you can score a 90 on and be pumped about. I will be back.

Good value for the price

It was our first time playing on this course. We did enjoy it except for the soggy areas from a downpour the night before. Good place to practice for different skill levels and very convenient to the city area. I’ll definitely come back.

Tough Course

Overall this was a cool and challenging course. Could use a little upkeep, especially with the golf carts and pavement on the steep cart paths. Very good value though; would definitely go again.

My tee time was not fulfilled, and was given no notice.

I was given no notice my tee time I booked and paid ahead for was not allowed by the course. The course blamed GolfNow for allowing the booking. I drove 30 minutes across town for what was a “business” round and was left looking like a fool.

The young man did show empathy and I congratulate the course on his professionalism.

GolfNow doesn’t offer an easy pathway to be reimbursed from what I can tell.

I’ll consider not using GolfNow in the future and stick with courses that offer their own booking platform.

We have stopped using golfnow outside of just browsing tee times at local courses and when we find one we like we just call the course directly

Best City owned course

For a municipal course. This is the best in the area. Look, it’s not private course in Carmel but if you’re looking for a good deal on a city course. This is a great one.

Back 9

You may want to call ahead to make sure back 9 is open. Booked 18 not knowing back 9 was closed. Course was over crowded with people circling back around to play a second round of 9.

Great course for the money

First time playing here and it is a fun well laid out course for us newbies. Greens felt slow and some tee boxes could use some love but overall well kept. Pace of play was great and we never felt rushed by anyone behind us nor were we held up by those in front of us. Wasn’t busy at all for a Saturday morning. We will definitely play here again

Coffin is really a golfing gem for us not-ready-for-primetime golfers

Not a regular, but more of an occasional long time Coffin golfer. While many of the tee boxes are atrocious, the bunkers are less-than acceptable, the 2 former bunkers on 12 which are now treated as 'ponds' are plain stupid and the cart path is reminiscent of the pot-hole infested streets of Marion County, the rest of the course (the fairways, the roughs, the slow greens) is surprisingly in good shape. If you hit from the yellow-stripe tees its a challenging course (and that is why I hit from the old-guy tee where I might be able to crack 80). But what a wonderful track. Is there a more spectacular spot to launch a drive than the 5th tee (do not hit right or near right anywhere on this hole)? And don't forget the very, very reasonable rate (for seniors) of only $25, 18 hole, riding. Woof!
