Rating Snapshot
About
Opened in 1998, this Pete Dye design has hosted several high-level college and professional golf tournaments while simultaneously serving thousands of enthusiastic amateur golfers throughout greater Indianapolis and beyond. With five sets of tees ranging from just under 7,000 yards to just over 5,000, Plum Creek is playable by all golfers. Several ponds and a winding stream come into play throughout the course, placing a premium on smart play, all while minimizing the need for forced carries for higher-handicap players.

Some Small things
Obviously, with Covid, golf courses became a place of refuge. Thank goodness! Course had become somewhat overplayed although it held up well in what I'm sure was their business year ever. Hopefully, once Covid is back under control, Plum could make some small changes to improve play. First, watch the pace of play. Too many times this summer, major back-ups happened due to one slow foursome that never seemed to get pushed. No sense to have to take five hours for a round of golf, which happens too often. Second, put out some little signs on the course to "Fix Your Divot". Way too many divots never repaired and greens took a beating. Third, move the tee boxes with a little more frequency....some areas became way too beat up. Fourth, put some sand back in the bunkers. Too many bunkers had virtually NO sad in the 2nd half of the year.....and then make sure they are cleaned up each day. Just some thoughts....fun course, local course, always enjoy it!
November Golf
The course was in great shape and the pace was under 4 hours.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round, Tom8613471! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences, u000006348662. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Plum Creek Golf Club!
Nice course
We liked the course including the layout and the greens and the pace of play was too slow, seemingly because of only 5 minute intervals between groups. I would love to see a ranger in the course as it usually is just one group that falls 2 or 3 holes behind and jams up the whole course like today, we had. foursome in front of us who were being held up on almost every hole by a group in front of them. Not sure. If a group was holding them up or not.

Excellent condition
This was my first time playing at Plum Creek and I was shocked I waited this long to get a round in there. The course is designed in a way that is very friendly to the golfer. Only lost 3 balls all round (two were off the same tee box lol). The difficulties rely on the golfer being consistent with ball striking more than the natural course challenges of other places I’ve played. Excited to go back and get some birdies!

Nice Course
Some of the fairways were hard but we haven't had much rain in weeks. Tee boxes and greens were in great shape.
Tee time from Golf now did not match what they had in their system so I was late. Staff was very friendly and got me in with another group.

Great course and challenging
Course in great shape and provided me a challenge for only my second time playing there.

great course, only one complaint...
Love the course, love the layout, love the greens, love the bar and food, only thing I really can complain about, most of the time 4 hours is not enough time to play 18 holes, and all too often, 5 hours is not enough. I would love to see a ranger in the course as it usually is just one group that falls 2 or 3 holes behind and jams up the whole course! like today, we had. foursome in front of us and, although they were pretty slow, they were being held up on almost every hole by a twosome in front of them!!! a TWOSOME!! by the 13-14 holes we realized this twosome had fallen a full two holes behind thr group in front of them that had teed off just 10 mins before they did.
Thank you for taking the time to review us troyperkins72. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Plum Creek Golf Club thanks you!

Pete Dye glory
This is a Pete Dye design...and...you get all the tricks of his tracks here. No need to spend hundreds elsewhere...it’s all here. The course is very well maintained. I could quibble with bunkers with little sand...but....I won’t. The course is very pretty. This is a busy course...but...the pace of play is excellent. About 3hrs 20 min for my twosome. The clubhouse is nice. The staff is nice. The driving range is very nice as well. Overall...I have nothing bad to say ( except for the sand in bunker non-quibble).
Plum Creek is a good course and not very difficult. Fun to play. But, It does not have all of the Pete Dye Tricks. Based on the other reviews you have no business playing most other Pete Dye courses as they would be too hard, penal, and qnd quirky for you. Stick to Top Golf.

Plum Creek
Hot & humid day but the course was in good shape.
Pete Dye greens are difficult to read and haven't played there enough recently to remember all the breaks. Enjoyed the round.
