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.

Eastside Reliable

Green fees have gone up everywhere but this place still maintains its luster., unlike other places that charges this high. Well staffed with Marshalls that help you enjoy your round by covering all aspects of your experience.

A beautiful and challenging course.

I played for the first time on 6/18/25 and fell in love with this course. It’s well maintained and beautiful scenery. It’s challenging because even if you hit the fairways you will have to know how to play downhill, uphill and sidehill lies. Definitely a course I will play again and again.

Original Home Course

I started playing The Fort back in the 80’s, before Mr Dye redesigned it. It was tough back then, and tougher today. It was “cart path” only Tuesday due to the rain Monday night. Which made it even tougher for a 18 handicaper.

But I love the challenge. With my Golf Pass membership I got a deal for $50.

I’ll be back.

Mr Herman in the Pro Shop was very nice! Keep up the good work!

Nice Course, But Disappointing Rain Policy for Out-of-Town Guests

We recently played at The Fort Golf Resort while visiting Indianapolis and were enjoying the round until the course was closed mid-way due to rain. While we completely understand the need to suspend play for weather and safety, the way it was handled left us disappointed.

The staff did issue a rain check and a partial refund for the holes we didn’t get to play, which we appreciated. However, the rain check was only good for golf and not offered as a shop credit or other alternative. Since we were visiting from out of town and won’t have the opportunity to return, the rain check is essentially useless to us.

It would be great if The Fort Golf Resort had a more flexible policy for non-local players—especially at a destination course that likely draws many travelers. A shop credit or more tailored option would have left us with a much better impression.

The course itself is beautiful and well-kept, but unfortunately, this experience put a damper on what could have been a highlight of our trip.

Pete dye course

This Pete Dye course was in good shape. Some of the holes are very difficult. There’s a surprising change in elevation on several holes. There are numerous environmentally sensitive areas. In southern Indiana we call those weeds. Most of them are not in play. It got slow at the end, and I did not see a ranger around the course. Overall a very good experience.

Bunkers not worked

Great course! But, for the premium price they charge, bunkers should be cared for prior to a packed Memorial Day. Not one was raked/prepared.

Nice, but pricey

This is yet another great Pete Dye design. Such an enjoyable course to play. Unfortunately, it's over $100 to play on the weekends. I don't feel like they should be able to charge quite this much. A $70-$80 price would seem more reasonable to me! Lots of undulation, well manicured, cool course

Overall a great course

Pete dye never disappoints! Great course with some crazy elevation changes. I could tell that the greens had been aerated somewhat recently, as there were some vague plug-marks still visible on some greens. The range and practice putting green are both good, but their chipping area has no fairway, only thick rough, which I find strange

Sunday eve play. We got all 18 holes in starting at 4:40

Everything was great, but the rough was sooo long. Needed to be mowed. Impossible to find your balls at times. Also the bathrooms out on the course were all locked. We had to come to the clubhouse to use the facilities.
