Best value in Indiana

Sultans Run is a MUST play if you’re in the Southern Indiana area. The course is always impeccable and the staff are exceptional. The value, especially during the week simply cannot be beat for a course of this caliber. The views of all the holes are spectacular, and the 18th is something to behold.

THE SULTAN OF PUBLIC GOLF COURSES

Course was in great shape, as usual. They just hosted the Senior LPGA event so it was in top shape. If the course was closer to me I would play it often, but it is worth the 4 hour drive to get there.

The course was in perfect condition

Had a great time golfing, the only problem was when I made the tee time I made it for a foursome, 1 guy backed out and still had to pay for the fourth player. I've golfed there many times over the years, and this has never been done before and had I known they changed it I would have cancelled the fourth and just had a 3-person tee time. The course was in perfect condition like always and really enjoy playing there but I must say it might be a while before I go back.

A great experience

I have played Sultan's Run a number of times over the years but never took the time to review it. I just got back from a buddies' golf trip on which we played Sultan's Run twice last week. I just want to say that it was a wonderful experience from the moment we drove into the facility to the last putt dropping on Indiana's most beautiful finishing hole.

The staff was terrific and most welcoming! The condition of the course was excellent as expected for a track that was getting ready to host a Senior LPGA event in a couple of weeks.

The holes are varied, scenic, and wonderfully laid out. In general, the greens are expansive and undulating, but fair. There is a fine range facility for your pre-round warm-up.

The Dye Course at nearby French Lick gets a lot of the publicity in this part of Indiana, but for my money, you can't beat a round at Sultan's Run!

Great Course

Played for first time with 2 locals. They along with gps helped a lot. Excellent course layout. Lots of risk reward shots. Greens aerated not too long ago should b fine in 2 wks. Zoysia in fairways needs a little more time to grow in also. Overall great course great price also .would play again

Still my favorite golf course

Course was in pristine condition, but I waited on every tee box for at least 10-15 minutes with the group ahead of us. They clearly way over booked the course. Food was mediocre at best. Will I go back? Of course it’s still my favorite.

Follow-up: Thank you for the review. We are glad we are your favorite course! We had a review that same day from a player who said Sultan’s Run gave him one of the best golf experiences he’s ever had, so you are in good company with other players.
Even though September is our busiest month, the course was not overloaded on the day you played. We do not overload the course, and that is why we limit our number of rounds booked to 20,000 per year and why we space our tee times at 12 minutes. Our target pace of play on this course is four hours and ten minutes to four hours and thirty minutes. Certainly, someone who is out first in the morning can play much quicker than that, but foursomes generally take this amount of time, with the average skewing toward four hours and thirty minutes, driven by player ability, player shot routine and player walking pace. We reviewed the GPS pace data for that day, and the average is right on track with some rounds played that day in under four hours!
See you again soon.

Sultan’s Run is a naturally beautiful golf course.

Sultan’s Run is a naturally beautiful golf course which has continue to improve with age. This course features 18 holes, each of which provides its own unique vista to provide the golfer with a beautiful, straight-forward, and fair golf experience. That doesn’t mean that this course is easy because a golfer can find trouble on any hole. However, there is a way to play every hole and avoid trouble if you hit the ball in the proper position on each hole. The fairways are generous, and the greens are large. However, each hole requires at least two quality golf shots in order to score well on the entire round. The course is generally well cared for although it does not drain particularly well after any significant rainfall. You may have to stay on the cart paths more than you might care to, but they work hard to protect the beauty and playability of this course. This course should rate high on any serious golfers list of favorite courses to play.

It’s been better

I’ve played Sultans 25 times or more through the years. The last 4-5 years it has been in supreme condition. This time not so much. The greens surfaces were spongy and speed about an 8 and not smooth. Lots of sod around the green aprons to correct some turf killed this spring. Great layout and best finishing hole in the Midwest. I don’t like the upcharge for range balls ($7 small bucket). The greens fees are on the high side and should include practice balls.

Excellent Course

Sultan’s Run is the most Scenic Golf Courses in the Tri-State area.. Have played it many times and always look forward to the next time.. Everyone is treated well by friendly staff members. The course has had a few weather related small problems this spring, but they are always quick to fix them.. Highly Recommend!
