Beautiful Layout, Great Challenge

The Fort golf course is a beautiful course, with many scenic holes - it's literally picture-perfect. It's also a wonderful challenge, with blind t-shots, blind second shots, and some significant carries required. The course is in very good shape, the fairways and greens were well kept, though the bunkers could use some TLC; COVID-times being what they are, it's of little consequence, and did not significantly impact our round. The facilities are great, the staff very friendly and helpful; the Starter, Ivan, was very cordial and shared a lot of details to make our day a great one - and it was!

Course was in great shape except for the greens. They were in rough shape. No consistency.

The Fort is well guarded

This was my third time playing The Fort and I must say the conditions were not as good as I remember. The bunkers were very sub-par and the greens were surprisingly slower than what I expected. But for the most part the course played nice. Could have used a breeze to combat the sweltering hot conditions that made the day miserable. I couldn't wait for the round to be over. I did however birdie two of the final three holes and three putted #17 from 85 feet. So I left on some good vibes.

Another great round at The Fort

$85 for 18 w cart, but with it. Played in 4 hr 10 min at a good pace. One green had aeration, but other than that course was great condition even with all the recent rain. Great Sunday morning round.

The greens are inconsistent with speeds. They need to be cared for as well. Tons of ball marks and unrepaired areas. The bunkers also have no sand and need tons of work. Many were unraked. Tee boxes and fairways were for the most part level and nice. This course probably was very nice 5-10 years ago.

Beautiful course

Excellent facility. Very friendly shop staff and competent course maintenance personnel. Only drawback is that the players leave behind too many unrepaired ball marks, unfilled divots and unraked bunkers.

Pete Dye masterpiece

The Fort is one of the best lay outs in Indiana. I’ve played the Brickyard and some of Indiana’s best over the past year and can’t say any of them are a better layout then the FORT. After a severe storm went thru a couple days earlier the course was in really good shape the only issue was some of the greens have been punched on the back nine. I would guess in the next few weeks they will all be done. They rolled well besides that and held a shot better then any greens I have played this year. The course is well worth the green fee price. Really fun and challenging. I also played one of my best rounds of the year even par 72

Slow play

If I went to a municipal I would expect to tempo of play . Not what you expect when you pay that sort of money for golf. Several groups 2 + holes behind and no rangers to speed them up.

Better Choices

This course is considered one of the premium courses in Central Indiana. Haven't played in a few years. Bunkers have a top soil sand mix. Not a good combo. Rough extremely high and not a consistent height around the course. Lots of grass clippings in rough making it hard to locate your ball. Only good for slowing play. Greens were by far the slowest I've ever seen on that course. Hope they can do better to improve.
