About Fort Golf Course Resort

The Fort Golf Course Resort was created in 1996 from Fort Benjamin Harrison, once a key U.S. Army post. The redeveloped military base has become a popular 1,700-acre state park with hills galore for hikers, bikers and golfers. Owned and operated by the State of Indiana, the 7,148-yard Pete Dye design features tree-lined fairways and Dye’s penchant for tough and interesting holes. The Fort Harrison Inn, a limestone structure built in the 1940s, offers 27 rooms and suites and the Garrison Restaurant. The Harrison House (seven more rooms and suites) and four Officer Homes are also available for overnight stays.

Beautiful

Absolutely gorgeous course! Very challenging, but missed shots are findable and usually playable. The greens are fair but hard to read. Subtle breaks combined with speed. My only wish was that sprinkler heads would have yardage. Some were broken off and that led to delays or guesses. The condition of the course was amazing given the little amount of rain received here in Indianapolis.

5 Star course, 3 Star experience

The course is awesome and maintained in really great shape. A lot of terrain changes and shot shaping opportunities on this non-typical Indianapolis course. Their layout creates a lot of walking/backtracking from parking to clubhouse to cart drop off. Seems poorly thought out. And if you play afternoon/evening, don't plan on getting in 18. We played 13 holes in two hours, then ran into a logjam of 2-some after 2-some that forced us to quit. No ranger enforcing pace of play. And the snack stand closed before 6:pm with the attendant and starter still there, but the wouldn't sell us anything to drink or eat at the turn, citing they were closed. Offered us the water fountain inside by the bathroom. For the price you pay, they lack in customer experience.

love The Fort...but...

I have always considered The Fort one of my favorites around (Fishers).great layout, course in good condition with the exception of the bunkers which are not well kept at all (we dropped many out due to poor conditions). Beautiful day and I will come back, please groom the bunkers and leave rakes for those to rake up after shots.

thanks

But those greens.

The fort is a great course and I always enjoy rounds here, but the greens have been really beat up compared to other area courses at similar or even lower price points. There are always several putts per round that do not roll true. A lot of the greens are shaded which I think makes them more difficult to maintain. At this price point I hope they would be able find a way to firm up and dry out the greens.

Great course and layout. One poor member of staff.

Played with a threesome on a Sunday evening. Course added a single walker with us, no big deal. Course was obviously busy for the weekend, though we still got through the front nine in under 2 hours. Back nine was a different story. Waited nearly 5 minutes on every tee box for those in front of us. Somehow an extra group of two snuck in between us and the foursome a head, making wait time even longer. Course staff member then drove out to us as we were finishing the 18th hole and told us we were holding up play and to hurry it up. Number one, very uncalled for as we were literally 150 yards out on the last hole. Additionally, they clearly didn’t pay much attention to what was going on out on the course as we were stuck waiting the entire back nine. Unfortunate situation on what was otherwise a beautiful day on a very fun course.

The Fort - 8/25/2020

This is a most enjoyable course to play. Each hole has it’s own vista, and allow the player to focus on the hole in they are playing. Nice large greens putted a bit slower than I expected, but given the heat of this season, it is understandable to keep them alive and well. I particularly enjoyed that last two holes. Suitable to the eye, but difficult to par nonetheless. I could play this course every day and never tire of it!

Wolverine on Hoosier

It was raining on the morning but even with a little rain this course was amazing.. The elevation changes were quite Un expected based on where it's located. It has a lot of history behind it and was a wonderful experience. It's a challenging course which makes it even better. I will play it again when I Co.e back to ithe area. I can say enough about the course and the people working ther. I even had some of the grounds people help find one of my balls. If you get the chance to ay here take it you won't regret it!

I forget about this course. EverytimevI walk off I tell myself I should play it more. Great layout because of the trees and a couple rolling fairways. Rare for Indiana.

Indiana Gem

My favorite Indianapolis course and in my top 3 in the state. Every hole is scenic and challenging. Many holes have major elevation changes with carries over picturesque valleys & ravines. I have played when the course was in immaculate condition however, during this visit, several days of heavy rains caused very wet conditions. The staff is extremely friendly and professional. The lunch out on the patio provided spectacular views of the course. The food was delicious with very reasonable prices. I do not live locally but this is a must play whenever I am in the area. A five star experience.
