Frankfort Commons Golf Course

A hidden gem and worth the play. Impressive par threes and a challenging layout. Greens great!!

I played all week in the Lebanon area, this was a nice layout, but the most overall experience was just alright. I was overwhelmed at some of the other courses! They had GPS systems in the carts, and really had pristine manicured greens. Frankfort was the same price for nine holes, and was very accommodating with letting us book back to back foursomes. For the money I would go into Westfield or Lebanon. Kudos to the free cart for Veterans, I did really appreciate that savings.

Front 9 had a foursome really slow. Got around them at the turn. Don’t think they liked that

This course was nice well taken care of. Beautiful day. Layout was pretty good. Just a few holes were kind of hard to know which way to go. Definitely will be back.

Will never play again or recommend to anyone!

The staff is RACIST, felt it so much that we skipped hole 13 & after 16 our round was ruined so we didn’t not play 17-18.

I’ve played golf all over the state of IN. & other states as well and have never seen or felt the racism to this degree.

ie. Being watched while in the clubhouse while checking in and purchasing food and drink. Followed by the ranger several holes, ranger asked if a foursome could pass on a par 4 and the group was just arriving to the tee box as we were walking off the green. We had a group in front of us that he said nothing to and two of them had only been playing for two years.

I enjoy this course more every time I play it. There are some tricks to know about where to aim, what side to miss it on, or where to take an extra club, so as you gain familiarity, your score can come down. The fairways and greens are in good shape, even if the rough it pretty weedy. The traps were fair compared to some places around here that are dirt dusted with sand. There are a variety of holes, with some pretty wide open and some tight, some doglegs and some straightaway, so it is never boring. There is only one crazy hole that seems weird or unfair to me, the 18th, which is so narrow and crooked that it almost requires a miracle. The rates are very reasonable and a good deal for the quality of the course and the conditions. The walking rate is a bargain and the course is very walkable. I am retired and tend to play at off-times, so I have never had much trouble with pace of play here.

The Frankfort Commons course has some interesting character in its layout. There are lots of hills and contours on several holes, and some holes are on the tight side if you stray from the fairway. Greens ran smooth and some had sneaky slopes on them. Fairways and rough were a bit patchy though, and not always in the best shape. Some tee boxes were in need of mowing TLC, and some trees could use a trim. Feel like it has potential and it serves its community well as an economical round, but I wouldn't run out of my way to play it. Worth a stop if you're nearby though.

Accommodating and friendly staff.

For a public course, they keep it up pretty well! Greens are quite nice!

Our group plays on multiple courses throughout the north central Indiana area.

There are a variety of holes and several are very challenging, 18 is a monster if you can't hit it straight!.

This course is one of our favorites and we play it several times each season.

I booked a tee time, showed up 10 early, and was told they “don’t see the Golf Now reservations” and “don’t have any carts”. Perfect. Whats the point of advertising on here then?

Had a great time playing a round with my son today. There was a lot of rain the night before but the course drained very well. The staff was very friendly and worked well to get us to get out on the course.

The course was in great condition. A very good experience.

Great looking course that you really had to strategically plan how to play some of the holes. I’m not very accurate with my driver and with some of the holes I had to use an iron from the tee box. One of the older reviews I read about the course before I played talked about needing signs on the bridges to bring your driver and the course has taken care of that. My only complaint about the course is while I was waiting for the group in front of me, I was parked right next to my ball and one of the grounds keepers drove by with the jet blower and blew grass clippings all over me and my cart.

Course was in great shape for being early in the season. I played this course years ago and I thought it was taking a turn for the worst. You can tell they are putting a lot of effort into making this a great course and it is paying off. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. Great practice facilities as well.

A course that is always fun to play, offers a variety of holes that will test your skills and always a great value.

Not bad if you get a deal on the price. Luckily it was not crowded on a Sunday morning

The former Frankfurt Country Club, now The Golf Preserve, is a short course, tricky and tight in a few spots (10 and 18), and is fairly priced at around $20 with a cart.

The greens were medium to medium-slow, but smooth and receptive. The fairways were shaggy and rough very long and thick, but that was likely thanks to a lot of rain in the past week. There was definitely a premium on hitting fairways with the rough so high, but I even caught a couple fliers from the fairways since they were more like light rough. Again, I give them a pass on that due to all the rain.

The Golf Preserve has a couple of salty par 3s from the back tees to keep it interesting. Very small greens all the way around require accuracy and good distance control with the short irons. The putting surfaces are fairly flat and easy to negotiate.

The Gold Preserve could stand to put up signs reminding players unfamiliar with the course to bring their drivers across the walking bridges that lead to greens and next-hole tees. This happens on two holes and nobody likes trudging back across the bridge to get the driver from the cart, then back across the bridge to the next tee, then back across the bridge to the cart. Signs would be an easy, cheap improvement.

This is not fancy golf by any stretch, but it is a sporty, small-town course that represents a decent value.

Overall, this is a nice course. The holes are pretty short in terms of lengths but the greens were extremely fast with a lot of curves. It seemed I was always having double breakers. I was surprised at how fast and hard the greens were since we have had a lot of rain recently. I worry the greens would be almost too hard to hold a ball on some of the longer par 3's. Off the tee, there isn't too much trouble as most of the time, the ball can be played if you have an errant tee shot. However, if you go left off the tee (I hardly ever do), it will play a lot more difficult for you as there are 4-5 holes where left is OB. The staff was extremely friendly and had no problem with me using the GolfNow website. I would definitely play again, in particular if I am looking to shoot a low round or am playing with someone who isn't all that good. It is a nice course for all ability levels.
