Needed Some Work
Now I really enjoy this course typically. However this would not be the case on this particular day. The rough was bordering on obscenely over grown and most of the fairways needed some serious attention to the grass clippings clumped up everywhere. I understand that the rain has made things grow out of control but when you have a course as nice as this one you want to maintain it to the best of your ability. I know I just caught them on a bad day because I've played this course many of times when it looks fantastic. Hope the grounds crew gets caught up and soon.
most all holes are different no clones
liked the course but the rough is a little too rough so thick that you saw area you hit ball but could never find it as long as you stayed in fairway you were safe but once in rough even if you find your ball good luck advancing it very far did like the variety of holes and course layout but they could use some directional hints on direction of next tee on some holes
The Ridge course is great, the Lakes course is fair and the Valley course is poor.
The 3 9 hole courses at Ironwood differ GREATLY. The Ridge is a great play and in great condition. The Lakes is average, decently maintained but has the worst par 3 hole I have ever played. The Valley is usually in poor or worse condition.
When I play Ironwood I generally feel like I am an inconvenience to the staff. The course is often cart path only which means on many holes (especially on the Valley) you are struggling to find and locate balls.
I only play Ironwood when I can get a discounted rate. There is no value when full price.
Challenging course with a lot of water
One of the more interesting courses in the Indianapolis area. You must keep your ball in the fairways as most holes have water everywhere. I was told to play the Valley/Lakes which seems like the norm here (only played the Ridge one time in about 8 times booking this course). The Lakes has two of the tougher holes in golf back to back which are sure to make or break your round. The course is in decent shape right now. In order for it to be in better shape, some of the trees would need to be removed to allow more airflow and sunlight to get at the grass on certain holes on the Valley course. I always enjoy playing this course and it's one of my favorites for the challenge.
Great course for hot deal price
The rough at Ironwood is longer than I've ever seen it, which added some difficulty to the course. The fairways and greens were all in pretty good shape.
Cant be beat for the price
Paid $13 to play the Lakes and Vallery courses and it was well worth the money. I havent been there in several years but its still as good of an value as I remember.
In good shape
Staff was very friendly, enjoyed our whole experience!!!
Good Course
The course was in decent shape. However, some of the greens were a little shoddy. Also, there were no ball cleaners at any of the holes. The fairways were in pretty good shape though.
course was in good shape for in late of year
Nice course and very friendly staff, didn't have to wait behind anyone on the course.
The pin placement was difficult on some holes for a Saturday
For the money this course was great, I got a Saturday hot deal for $17. The course itself was in pretty good shape. Some of the pin placements were difficult for a Saturday. Overall, I had a good day and enjoyed the round.
Very nice course also a little challenging. Great price
I would play here again for sure. Very nice views also.
Great value, good challenge
Like most central Indiana courses, there was a lot of evidence of heat/drought damage to the course. Overall however, I thought the course was in OK shape. The layout is challenging and I really enjoyed their signature par 3 hole on the Lakes 9. I would play there again.
Always enjoy it!
Unfortunately the course condition was not at its best (I played 2 of the 9's), however I always enjoy playing here. Staff is very friendly and there are 3 9's to choose from, each with a different level of difficulty.
i actually already DID recommend it to a friend...
great track...nice layout, fair, but a very difficult scoring course..couple of the holes seem a little trick, but honestly just a tough test of golf...enjoyed the 36 holes we played there
