Absolutely fantastic

Was in impeccable condition considering how wet the area has been. Staff was more than courteous and help since I was playing as a single, the placed me with a nice couple in town visiting from Kansas City I believe.

Not Like It Use To Be

The Fort use to be one of my favorites courses and would play a handful of time every year. Last year you could tell they were not doing as good of a job maintaining the course. I played twice this year and the course was in worse shape. Hard and horrible traps. Average condition on the remainder of the course. When you have to pay high green fees, you have too many other options that are better for the price. Covid is not an excuse for the condition. Haven’t seen too many other course in this poor of condition, even the city courses. I have spoken to other golfers who feel the same way. So sad for all the fans of the old course.

Nice Course

Absolutely beautiful course and layout. I’ve played here several times and I always have the same two “complaints” - greens could be in a lot better shape and the course could use a lot more yardage markers. They could go a step beyond and add GPS to the carts, but doubt if they will ever happen.

The Fort is amazing

A wonderful golf course like no other within hundreds of miles. This course is a true gem for Indianapolis. This course has multiple tee boxes to accommodate any skill level. And it also has many memorable or signature holes. The Fort being a part of the state parks system is a plus. You simply do not imagine that you are in a Metroplex city. Very enjoyable to play.

Did not disappoint

It's been a great week of golf in the Indy area and The Fort did not disappoint. Buffer Park, Brickyard Crossing, and the CC of Indy were all stellar golf experiences and The Fort brought Indy golf to yet another level. Historic, scenic, BIG, lush, just a great venue and the conditions were fantastic, and for a price that would make most high falutin' tracks blush. Winding through the hill country of the old Army fort area, this gem was a real pleasure. We played the White Tees, and when we looked back, the 2 tees behind us looked they could offer all any golfer could handle. Each home was unique and memorable, with ample fairways on some, tight spots in others, not a boring hole to be found. My friend who lives in the area says it's his favorite local course and I can see why. The greens do suffer a little from ample play with a lot of unrepaired ball marks and some slight fungus damage here and ther, but not enough to detract from the experience. I'd be happy to play here again given the chance. If in the Indy area, don't miss this beaut, er, brute!

Best course in Indy

This is my favorite course I have played around Indy. The course can be incredibly challenging if you are not on your game but also provides plenty of opportunities for birdies. The greens roll very well and all of the grass in the fairway is perfect. Wouldn’t mind paying $75 to play here

Great course

Was in town and wanted to play this course. Glad I had some locals who had played it before to let you know the best place to put your shot. Course was in great condition. Greens were soft and not to fast or slow. I would love to come back and play again

Absolutely Fantastic

Course is a real gem. Layout is superb, and conditions were top notch. If i could give value 10 stars I would because you won’t find any courses this good for $100 let alone $60. Anyone visiting Indianapolis should absolutely play it.
