South Grove Golf Course

Nice layout with beautiful mature

trees. Condition of the teeing

grounds was horrible, but fairways and

greens were adequate.

Played this challenging course for the first time. Nice old course with lots of big trees that come into play. Must hit straight or strokes suffer. Greens had some slope and we're challenging too. I really like and appreciate that this city course caters to families with junior golfers. They play free round with playing adult anytime. Great way to get youth into the sport, wish more city courses did that. Great time with the family. Thanks South Grove.

Good location for meeting friends from different parts of the state

Staff was very friendly, our cart went down on 15 they promptly got us a fresh one. Fall leaves were manageable & off the greens. Not a fan of the bag drop.

Fairways & T-boxes were cut & rough was not too long either, leaves were manageable in the rough as well

Grew up playing "the Grove" and it is always a challenge. This was the first time playing it this year and it didn't disappoint. The trees have gotten bigger and playing the course is like putting on your favorite jacket! I recommend it to anyone and I also recommend playing in the Spring 4 ball tournament!

The course was in great shape I had no problem with anything except these people wouldn’t let you play through or thy were complete Not Golf people

There are only 3-4 courses near downtown Indy and S. Grove is the best. The course layout is very straight forward, lot of up and downs. However, each hole is lined with trees on each side which is what makes it so difficult. If you finish 18 and say you did not hit a single tree then you are lying. I play this course 20+ each summer and it continues to grow on me. Best I've ever shot here was a 94 and I'm a 28 handicap. Would recommend booking a tee time via GolfNow!

In town for a convention and looking for an inexpensive place to play. Course was well maintained and friedly staff directed me to an even better course the next day.

We encountered some problems with the four-some behind us. On the 17th hole, we're still trying to find my ball, and haven't made our second shot, but the group behind us were already teeing off. My wife was in the center of the fairway (150 yards from the white tee box), waving and yelling at them to stop but they seemed not to care as they still hit their ball and went over our cart. We went back to tell them that they didn't observe the distance rule, etc. And then on the 18th hole, there was a back-up - we were 3rd to tee-off, as there's still a two-some before us waiting. But then these four-some came and waited where we were and were talking loudly while someone was teeing off. After our game, my wife reported this incident/experience to the course, but the staff in charge at that time just dismissed her concerns and simply said "it happens all the time".

Bought Hot Deal for $20, coarse was in excellent shape overall , T-boxes were ok, greens were excellent. Staff was friendly, the club drop/pickup area is small and can get congested. I'll play Southgrove again.

This course was great. I had several options and chose South Gtrove. Having nevrr been to Indianapolis before , I picked it because it was close to where we were visiting. It was great. The man at the counter that morning was very nice. The young man that i was paired with was a good golfer and we hsd great conversation. I would recommend this course to anyone and would love to play there again. Thanks Indianapolis parks for a terrifuc time.

I am new to golf and this course was perfect for me to go out and play on a weekday. Minimal water traps and clear straight shots. Great cost! Friendly staff! Recommended for beginner play. I will be back!

It's better than cheap and you get more than what you paid for. Course was in great condition. It's not too challenging but is fun to play. Probably a great place to work on your intermediate and short game.

Nice city course. Fairways in good shape. Greens very nice. The growth of the course's trees over the last 30 years has kept this course a good challenge.

Love courses with character and this course had it.

Short but tree lined made it challenging.

Fairways could be mowed a little shorter.

Overall great course.

This may be the worst course in Indianapolis.

Staff: not accommodating.

Course layout: ok. Does force some tight shot placement.

Tee boxes: upkeep is lacking. Looks like they planted crab grass and it's difficult to find a level spot.

Fairway/rough: fairways are maintained. Rough is the same as tee box but longer crabgrass.

Greens were very soft.
