Poor maintenance

Do not golf in the fall, all the leaves have been off the trees for at least a week, all they was blow the leaves off the fairway at best, especially the front nine. So if you hit into the rough forget about it, I lost at least a dozen balls in the leaves, or I could have spent hours looking for my balls. Unreal!! The golf carts have no windows on them.

one of the better city courses, few hazards other than trees,

Two friends and I rode 18 on a Sunday. Great weather that day, the course was steady but not too busy. Really good city course, and the greens were in surprisingly good shape for an inner city course. Oldest city course in Indy. Fairways are pretty open, and there few hazards other than the trees. Fairways could have been a little bit shorter. Course in pretty flat overall. Good value!

Enjoyable Course

The course has enough challenging holes along with some good birdie opportunities to make for an enjoyable round. Also this course has some of the best maintained greens you will see.

The greens were in great shape!!!

For fall conditions the overall course was in great shape. The fairways and rough were a little longer than summer, but I am sure that has to do with the time of year. Definitely will play again this fall.

A great bargain for the money

I liked the course. It is well maintained and was not busy. No water hazards and open fairways are good. The cart was fast and easy to run.

This is a nice course in the inner city

I went with a friend from work on a Saturday at noon for $21 and had a great time. I was very surprised that it wasn't busier since it was a beautiful day but thoroughly enjoyed my outing. We were able to play 18 in just over 3 hours, AWESOME. I had trouble booking the tee time on line, site kept going in a hazard lol but called golf now and super friendly staff member booked it with no problem. Two thumbs up for golf now, you guys are GREAT!

Great older muni with pristine greens.

Fun experience. How often do you get a chance to play a course that's over a 100 years old? Greens were quick and pristine. Most of the greens are on the smaller side, but typical of an older city course. Trees make a few of the fairways challenging to hit, but overall very forgiving. Staff very accommodating., Play was very light on a Monday mid-afternoon.

Great course for the money

It was a fairly easy course. It was nicely maintained. Lots of trees up'd the difficulty a little bit and very little water. It was close to the city but felt like out in the country. I got a great deal with the BOGO at $25 for 2 people. I would recommend it even at $25 pp.

You'd better be a straight hitter!

The toughness of this course comes from the tight tree-lined fairways and 3" rough. Your ball disappears in the rough and makes it challenging to advance. Great course, good value. The menu choices could be better at the Pro Shop.

A wonderful municipal course, with one of the friendliest & most accommodating staffs around!

One of the best municipal courses to play in Indianapolis. This course has some tight tre- lined fairways, and the holes that are more open require some length off of the tee. Great place to learn to play and yet enough of a challenge for someone approaching scratch golf. In the summer, the Blue grass rough will challenge the toughest of PGA Champions!

Tough Old Course

South Grove is a very nice city course. The course is very mature with massive trees and some narrow fairways as a result. The course played fast and the greens were firm and very nice to putt on. The overall length of the course is short even from the back tees which makes it enjoyable to all hitters. The par 5’s are usually reachable in two after a nice drive. Overall the course is average but I do recommend to those up for a challenge especially if you don’t always it straight.

This course is great for all skill levels.

This was the second time we played here in last 5 weeks. The course was in extremely good shape. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My family will play there more before season is over.
