Plum Creek Golf Club
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.

Truly a joy!
Truly a fun course where every hole is unique to the eye and presents a challenge, a different chapter in the book of the round. The front 9 is tighter with more damage done on missed fairways, the back 9 is relatively easy except for 16, 17, and 18. These 3 are anxiety inducing if you're looking at a great round so far.
The practice area is remarkable; great putting, chipping and full range.
The course drains well after rains. It's not the easiest course to walk/push cart but with not much elevation change, it's not bad at all.
Staff is always friendly and looking out for you. Occasionally they have marshalls to keep pace of play going on busier days. Food is really good (get the chicken quesadilla). Love this place!
Always top notch
This course is always top notch. We have been playing at Plum for years and never had a bad experience. Friendly staff, course conditions are good and 18 holes always takes 3.5-4 hours. Can’t ask for much more.
Beautiful course
Loved the course greens rolled true, firm but not hard, able to put spin on the ball, fast greens, fairway cut beautifully, great reward if you hit the fairway, front 9 seemed to play a little tighter than the back 9 in my opinion, not super difficult but you can still be put in some sticky situations if you can’t find your swing that day

Paired up with awfully slow pair
Course, wonderful shape. Earlier 8:21am twosome tee time, got paired with two “seniors” pace of play was horrendous. Felt bad for holding up the two foursomes behind us most of the morning… disappointed in the pace due to this but I understand pairing up but at least make an effort to make the skill level comparable or at least at an acceptable rate of play. Paid too much money to play at a higher end course to get the same problems when ya play somewhere 1/2 the price

keeping pace
the course was in great shape and our foursome was able to get around in 3 hours 45 minutes. unfortunately, that pace wasn't fast enough for the four members behind us. the two members of our group who had never seen plum creek felt rushed most of the round. other than that, great time on a great course.

Great race day round
Greens were perfect and course was in better shape than prairie view across the street and 15 percent cheaper

Plum Creek is almost always in great condition. It’s early yet, so the rough is a little long as we’ve gotten a fair amount of rain and they can’t mow as often.
Thanks so much for the great review, chariolson. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Plum Creek Golf Club.
College outing ahead of us
I love the course/facility. There was a women’s collegiate event and they were ridiculously slow. We started 20 minutes late, played the first two holes in about 45 minutes and when we got to the third tee, there were already four groups waiting.
