THE Fort

The Fort golf course located outside Indy is part of the Indiana State Park system.

Staff was extremely friendly. Golf course was in good condition with excellent green complexes.

No inside dining due to covid, but a must play if your in the Indy area.

Just perfect, this is the place to play!

What a fantastic course! Conditions were great, I had forgotten how much elevation change there was and all the teeth Pete Dye usually puts in his courses. Everyone there was also super nice in getting a single out for a twilight time. This is the place to play in Indy!

Again, bad experience for the cost

For as much as you pay to play this course they should have a snack bar open and a ranger or at least let you finish your round. They are always rude here. I've been playing for over 40 years and this place never gets any

better with their service. Employees are so entitled. I love to play the course but I cringe from the time I get there to the time I get tee'd off on number one. Everything is always closed, snack bar, range...carts need to be an hour before sun down.... Whoever runs this takes a great golf course and ruins the experience.

Fun, challenging, and set in the middle of a state park.

Tremendous layout. Challenging but score able.

Anomalous hilly terrain. Deceptively challenging short holes.

Sometimes a bit of a long slog.

Great exercise for walkers.

Historical layout by the army, last modified by pete Dye in 1995.

Unprofessional staff

Made the reservation online. Manager was very rude when asking for my I.D. when I showed up. Since there was 3 in our group and a 4th joined, we asked for another cart. They charged us another $10. We got to the tee box and our 4th was a walker. When we asked for a refund, we were told only the manager could do it and he just left. We could return 3 days later and get it but this employee was very full of himself. Even though it’s my favorite course in Indy, it will be a long time before I return.

The Fort

I've probably played this course 75-100 times over the years and it is the true challenge of course management. With the exception of Mother Nature's whims it is always in good shape. Back in the pre-Dye days it was a ball eating monster.

Play it because it's worth every penny.
