Plum Creek Golf Club
About
Opened in 1998, this Pete Dye design has hosted several high-level college and professional golf tournaments while simultaneously serving thousands of enthusiastic amateur golfers throughout greater Indianapolis and beyond. With five sets of tees ranging from just under 7,000 yards to just over 5,000, Plum Creek is playable by all golfers. Several ponds and a winding stream come into play throughout the course, placing a premium on smart play, all while minimizing the need for forced carries for higher-handicap players.

Great round a week before Thanksgiving? Yep!
Course was in incredible shape for this late in the season. Plum Creek always goes out of their way to give you a CC feel and amenities are always top notch. The course, while a bit short from the whites has a great balance between being challenging, but also playable... which keeps rounds (even when busy) at 4 hrs or less. Lastly, PC isn't afraid to discount rates which other neighboring courses don't do. Much appreciated for a father of 4.

great day!
played Plum Creek many time this summer and really enjoyed round with no one in front of in back of us! Course great shape impressed with sand as many courses terrible shape. Great people working there as we had cart issues and without even calling in, they came out and brought new cart!! I will be back!
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 Plum Creek Golf Club.
Always in great condition
We play Plum multiple times each year and always appreciate the condition it is in. It’s condition compares favorably to some of the private courses we play.

Unimpressive
The course was in superb condition. I played here years ago and remembered nothing about the course. Playing it again, the reason for my non-recollection became clear. There is nothing remarkable or noteworthy about the course. In fact, it’s boring! Further, the green to next tee directions are either non-existent or confusing. Many wrong turns for the unfamiliar player. Doubt I’ll play it again, especially at their greens fees.

Confusing layout
The course condition was superb! Better markings to the next tee boxes would be helpful on several holes. Being our first time, we had a few wring turns.

Great course.
Course was in great condition and very playable. Women’s member foursome in front of us was playing verrrrrry slow with open holes ahead of them but never offered to let our fast threesome play through on a very hot day, extending our round by ~30 mins. No ranger on duty.

Nice layout
I really like the layout of the course. It's challenging but fair. They have a great range and good facilities. The cost has risen significantly in the last few years which has lessened some of the appeal. But it's still one of my favorite layouts in the city.
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 Plum Creek Golf Club.

In good conditions although some odd changes from last year
Course is in great shape overall. As always, some bunkers are great and others are six sand pebbles from being concrete. Greens were very smooth and nice and fast; they always have great greens. Fairways are great too; not cut too tight and always well irrigated.
The weird items from last year are the cheap looking green plywood garbage cans covers, the spray-painted hole signs, and using dirt instead of sand on the chipping green. Really disappointing to see these three distasteful changes from 2022. I would consider this course close in quality to Prairie View (albeit much easier and less competitive environment) but these choices are made as if it’s a standard municipal course on a tight budget, and shouldn’t be decisions made by one of the best public courses in Carmel.
Spend the money on legitimate wood structures (like prairie view does) and use sand in the chipping area, not dirt.
