Beautiful setting; great shape

I hadn't played this course in many years. It is in perfects shape. There are lots of hills so the course is challenging but also playable. I highly recommend it.

With that being said if not for a few employees working in the clubhouse the course would be awesome. The world has changed but some things will never change. #Facts

I love that this course gives you options on playing a hole. It also is “what you see - is what you get. There are no “trick holes” or blind hazards.

Indy's Enigma

The fort is without a shadow of a doubt the best layout in the city of Indianapolis, and a must play for anyone in the circle city area. The elevation changes, natural beauty and state park feel are something that cannot be replicated anywhere else I have ever played golf. I love this course, and I will continue to play it for years to come.

The pace of play is brutal each time I play the course. It is always a 5+ hour round without any rangers to be found. This is my one consistent gripe about the course, and I do believe it hurts business there. I would recommend that golfers prepare for 5 hour rounds even on a weekday twilight. The course was in decent shape for the time of the year, but the greens were smashed. The fort is worth a go if you are in the area!

Great central Indy course

(From a hacker's perspective) This is a beautiful course, well kept, and challenging. Embrace to challenge. Leave your frustrations at home and bring your A game. Not much room error, so take extra balls. I'll definately be going back. This is a central Indy Gem.

Great course, awful course management

Foursome behind us repeatedly hit up on us, even with the Ranger sitting there. 8some in front of us (really) backed up play. Ridiculous.

First Time Playing

Only complaint was lack of water

Great course lay out, great course conditions, very friendly staff. My only complaint was that it was a very hot day and none of the water jugs had a drop of water in them. Plus the cart girl left at 4 p.m. My group was very thirsty. My wife quit playing after 13 holes because she was so drained and thirsty.
