Indian Bluff Golf Course
About
With a convenient location that is easily accessible from any of the quad cities, Indian Bluff is one of the premier golfing destinations for both eastern Iowa and western Illinois. The 18-hole golf course offers a challenging but fair round that players of all skill levels can enjoy. The hilly terrain is dappled with mature trees and a few natural ponds and lakes. The tight, tree-lined fairways and undulating greens demand accuracy. There are two particularly tricky par-5 holes where you'll face blind shots to narrow landing areas and a few of the par 3s can seem especially long. Strategically placed bunkers frame most of the greens but water comes into play only occasionally, most notably on the seventh hole where a sprawling lake nearly makes an island green.

GREAT PLACE!!!!
The front nine is absolutely perfect not real happy with the back nine a nimber of trick-up holes.
Nice Fall trees and Golf
Trees around course make a fall golf outing very enjoyable. While 4 holes are not well designed there are other which make for a great casual day. Not a TPC but good effort for public course.
Where's the club house
After nine holes the club house is no where in site
Good course, Good value
Good course, Good value. Some easy holes, a lot of challenging holes. Good time.
Fun course
Lots of hills and blind shots would be difficult to walk.
Great course
Great value always in good condition.Greens always roll nice Hard to beat this place for a small town course
Short but good challenge
Nice little course with very friendly staff. The course is short but offers a good challenge with some tight fairways and difficult pin placements. Great value.
A quaint fun little course
A quite beautiful little course with rolling tree lined fairways, smooth fast and receptive greens, and even nice bunkers. Many tee shots don't require driver and require more of placement for angles to greens. Great variety of par 3s. There is 1 par 5 that is a 3 shot because of narrow almost blind landing areas and nearly unreachable carries, and 1 par 4 is hard to see from the tee due to driving through some trees. That said it was a lot of fun to play and great value.
Poor Management
The course had scheduled an outing at mid-morning and had no marshaling of their progress, Those groups behind became three groups on each tee waiting for the outing. We played 11 holes in 3 1/2 hours and gave up. There was a 5 hole gap between two of the outing foursomes. I had called in to the clubhouse, but they did not seem to care!!!
Good to get out
The course was in good shape, especially considering all the rain we have had in this area. My reservation was supposed to include a cart, but they did not allow carts on the course that day. They did give me a pull cart.
To be honest, there are some holes on this course that need some revising, due mainly to the huge hills and no fair landing area. But at the great price I got, it was worth it.
First time playing
Got a hot deal from Internet. If paid less than 20. Worth every penny. If more, short and tiny course would you make hesitant for next round. Green condition was great though.
Enjoyable Course
Well maintained public course and a pleasure to play. Opportunity to use a variety of clubs as the course has many different challenges.
Great Shape Course
Greens and Fairways were in very nice shape. The course is very women friendly course. On several hole the Ladies get a huge advantage (100+).
Would recommend.
Some hole layout never seen before, Great
Awesome, Beautiful, Challenging, Can't wait to play again. A few Blind holes
Course in great shape
Course played in around 4 hours on Sunday afternoon.
Challenging hills and greens
Course was in good shape with nice fairways and greens. A challenging course with many hills and blind areas to hit from. Greens where firm and sloping. Lots of mature trees all around along with several water areas that added to the challenge.
Supper green fareways
Course was in excellent shape .. Rough was thick keep it in the fareways!!
Great Value
Nothing really to complain about. Overall a pretty fun course with a couple challenging holes.
Indian Bluff
Like others this course good be difficult if you don't it it straight. A few of the holes are blind which can make it difficult to find your ball even if you hit it straight I'm a high handicapper with some physical problems which makes the course more difficult for me. My partner and I were able to play 18 with cart for $15.00 a piece through golf now. Has a lot of hills
Excellent condition
Course in very excellent condition for an older course....we'll groomed course.
