Great Finishing Hole Photo submitted by jess34tn on 07/29/2014
It's Really Unreal...
Nestled in a very peaceful area of Indiana, yet close enough to seems not far away. The staff was gracious to my late arrival and helpful to help us get in as much play as we could before closing. I drove 78 miles just to try the course out. It was worth two times the mileage and three times the time!
The fairways are forgiving of the occasional errant shot, but you need to be accurate for this topography. It's like walking on a newly laid mid-shag carpet. The greens are excited and exciting once you get there. A short game champ will be happy here!
Par 5's are perfect fives for both distance, startegy needed to land right, and lots of landing room. Par 3's are no pushover but the newbie can play them well too.
If you get the chance, take the change, and visit "The Real Run"!
Great 3rd Course to French Lick Package
Beautiful layout! Course was in great shape! If you are part of the French Lick Package, make sure you play Sultan's Run. You will not be disappointed. Zoysia fairways were pristine.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course.
Put On Your Bucket List
Had researched French Lick for 5 years and finally committed. Boy am I glad I committed! Awesome layout. Do need to play it a 2nd time if you don't have a caddie. Immaculate conditions. Have already told a bunch of my golfing buddies to come here.
If Not On Your Bucket List - Add It!
Our caddie Josh was great! Gave us some history and also was very helpful. Played with a wonderful couple from Mt Carmel, IN. Dye and Ross courses are easily two of the toughest courses I've ever played! Conditions were immaculate. Definitely want to come back!
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course!
Best value in Indiana
Sultans Run is a MUST play if you’re in the Southern Indiana area. The course is always impeccable and the staff are exceptional. The value, especially during the week simply cannot be beat for a course of this caliber. The views of all the holes are spectacular, and the 18th is something to behold.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, Douglas9208392. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course!
THE SULTAN OF PUBLIC GOLF COURSES
Course was in great shape, as usual. They just hosted the Senior LPGA event so it was in top shape. If the course was closer to me I would play it often, but it is worth the 4 hour drive to get there.
Thanks so much for your wonderful review, ForeRoonie. We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your time with us. Please visit again soon. Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course!
The course was in perfect condition
Had a great time golfing, the only problem was when I made the tee time I made it for a foursome, 1 guy backed out and still had to pay for the fourth player. I've golfed there many times over the years, and this has never been done before and had I known they changed it I would have cancelled the fourth and just had a 3-person tee time. The course was in perfect condition like always and really enjoy playing there but I must say it might be a while before I go back.

A great experience
I have played Sultan's Run a number of times over the years but never took the time to review it. I just got back from a buddies' golf trip on which we played Sultan's Run twice last week. I just want to say that it was a wonderful experience from the moment we drove into the facility to the last putt dropping on Indiana's most beautiful finishing hole.
The staff was terrific and most welcoming! The condition of the course was excellent as expected for a track that was getting ready to host a Senior LPGA event in a couple of weeks.
The holes are varied, scenic, and wonderfully laid out. In general, the greens are expansive and undulating, but fair. There is a fine range facility for your pre-round warm-up.
The Dye Course at nearby French Lick gets a lot of the publicity in this part of Indiana, but for my money, you can't beat a round at Sultan's Run!
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course.
Best course in the area!
If you want to play a quality golf course, this one’s for you. By far the best course in this area.
Your feedback is important to us, LJMohr. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course.
Great Course
Played for first time with 2 locals. They along with gps helped a lot. Excellent course layout. Lots of risk reward shots. Greens aerated not too long ago should b fine in 2 wks. Zoysia in fairways needs a little more time to grow in also. Overall great course great price also .would play again

over priced beverages
Course, as usual, in great shape. Only complaint is they charged $39 for a 6 pack! I have played course all over the midwest, and this is MORE THAN DOUBLE any other course. Ridiculous. Will never buy a beverage there again.
Nice course. BEER WAY OVER PRICED!

Still my favorite golf course
Course was in pristine condition, but I waited on every tee box for at least 10-15 minutes with the group ahead of us. They clearly way over booked the course. Food was mediocre at best. Will I go back? Of course it’s still my favorite.
Follow-up: Thank you for the review. We are glad we are your favorite course! We had a review that same day from a player who said Sultan’s Run gave him one of the best golf experiences he’s ever had, so you are in good company with other players.
Even though September is our busiest month, the course was not overloaded on the day you played. We do not overload the course, and that is why we limit our number of rounds booked to 20,000 per year and why we space our tee times at 12 minutes. Our target pace of play on this course is four hours and ten minutes to four hours and thirty minutes. Certainly, someone who is out first in the morning can play much quicker than that, but foursomes generally take this amount of time, with the average skewing toward four hours and thirty minutes, driven by player ability, player shot routine and player walking pace. We reviewed the GPS pace data for that day, and the average is right on track with some rounds played that day in under four hours!
See you again soon.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Sultan's Run Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Beautiful!
We loved this course! It was very well maintained and just beautiful! It was challenging, lots of bunkers, hills, tricky pins, but that’s what makes it fun! Staff was very friendly as well.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Sultan's Run Golf Course thanks you!
Two Old Farts
The course was in wonderful condition. Fairways and greens were excellent. Our starter was extremely helpful. What a great experience we had.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Sultan's Run Golf Course.
Sultan’s Run is a naturally beautiful golf course.
Sultan’s Run is a naturally beautiful golf course which has continue to improve with age. This course features 18 holes, each of which provides its own unique vista to provide the golfer with a beautiful, straight-forward, and fair golf experience. That doesn’t mean that this course is easy because a golfer can find trouble on any hole. However, there is a way to play every hole and avoid trouble if you hit the ball in the proper position on each hole. The fairways are generous, and the greens are large. However, each hole requires at least two quality golf shots in order to score well on the entire round. The course is generally well cared for although it does not drain particularly well after any significant rainfall. You may have to stay on the cart paths more than you might care to, but they work hard to protect the beauty and playability of this course. This course should rate high on any serious golfers list of favorite courses to play.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Sultan's Run Golf Course.
