Superb golf course, Outstanding staff
This is a magnificent golf course. The layout is beautiful as with most Pete Dye courses. Fast, true greens. Excellent practice areas. The Fort is probably the best public course I have ever played. I played on a Monday which was a discout day but the full rate is still a bargain.
Excellent condition, tough.
This was our 3rd time to play The Fort, probably in the best condition we've seen. The greens were very fast, and the course is tough if you don't hit it straight, like me. When out on the course it doesn't seem like Indianapolis.
Course conditions
It was my first time playing "The Fort" and I thoroughly enjoyed the track. It had a great layout, but the green were not in very good shape. The greens had a lot of ball marks, which made it rough for putting. The fairways were in great shape, but the sand traps were very hard, clay base. I will definitely be back to play it again.
Must play for for the right price.
A little slow on some holes probably due to holiday. Always enjoy playing here when possible.
A little pricey but some nice holes.
$74 makes it difficult to play this course very often, but there are some very nice holes. Pace of play much too slow at 5 full hours. Marshalls need to monitor this more closely.
Great place to play in Indy
The Fort golf course was in great shape. The pace of play was steady and we did not feel rushed or slowed down. We were even able to get on the course before our tee time. The staff was nice and helpful. The only complaint is the lack of restroom facilities on the course. Overall, I would recommend playing this course to anyone that is in the Indy area.
Great Course
The Fort is a great mountainous course in Central Indiana. Greens were in great shape and tee boxes pristine.
Great course and setting
This was the second time I played The Fort and was glad to make it back out. The setting is perfect, right in the middle of a state park with a lot of elevation changes and great tree lined holes. Course was in good condition, fairways and rough were well maintained, greens were just ok. Will play again based on the course design and setting alone.
Very Good Indianapolis Course
This is one of the best designed courses in Indiana. Tee to green the course is in great shape. The greens were average on the day we played and need some attention. There were many unrepaired ball marks and signs of use.
Great Course in Good Shape
Very challenging the way they had it setup with the long rough. Better not miss the fairway!
The Fort is awesome
You will thoroughly enjoy the lay out. Course is in great shape and you will not find many in Central Indiana that have the undulation like The Fort has. Challenging and fair. Have played several times and have never been disappointed.
Favorite Local Course
When ever possible, I play The Fort. It is pricey at times, but worth it to keep this state park course in great shape. This is one of the best courses in the entire state, tough but fair!
Call course first
You might find that you are better off to call the course first and check time as after buying what I thought was a great price on this site they added an additional $24.48 for charges including tax which I never pay at a course. Found out through the pro it would haved been cheaper to simply call the course and get a tee time.
Great Value
Challenging scenic course could of played a little faster but overall very good.
New 2nd Favorite
This course is absolutely amazing! Pete Dye is an evil golf course designing genius. This has now become my new 2nd favorite course in the Indianapolis area. The hills and elevation changes are great. The course was in tip top shape. I have to say that there was nothing that I did not like about this course. If you haven't played this course yet I highly recommend that you get on it ASAP. You will not be disappointed.
Great layout
The course is in very good condition except for the greens. The Fort always seems to struggle with poiana grass in the greens. Other than, it is in great shape.
Beautiful course
This is destined to be one of my favorite Indiana courses. Beautiful course, well laid out and well maintained. The only problem was the groups ahead of us that were so so slow. This course took me over five hours and the rangers did nothing about it. Great course, fun time...
Good Layout but conditions were not great. In their defense it is early spring and the greens had not recovered from aeration yet.
Pretty solid course but nothing that really wants to make me go back and play again. Could never really figure out speed of the greens. Some were slow, some really quick.
Course Design is Awesome
This Pete Dye course is a great design, very challenging with a lot of uphill shots. The greens were in terrible condition as they seemed to have been aerated recently. There were small mounds of dirt all over the greens that made putting very difficult.
Early Season Round
Cart path only this day and still pretty soggy from the rains early in the week but still good conditions to score well. Rangers were around the course at all times to make sure the course was not driven on to maintain it for upcoming rounds throughout the year. One of the best courses in central Indiana.
