Awesome

Coolest course layout since playing the Gatlinburg course in Pigeon Forge. 18th hole is the prettiest ever.

Best public course in Indiana

I can’t say enough about this golf course and the entire experience. From the time you drop your clubs off with the cart guys to the huge practice facility and of the course the absolutely amazing course itself, this is a must play. Rates are extremely good for a course of this caliber and conditioning of the course itself couldn’t be better.. it would almost be worth moving to the Jasper area to be able to play this course everyday.

Excellent Course

I have played several elite courses in Indiana Kentucky , Illinois, etc. and rate Sultan’s Run in Jasper Indiana right at the top of that list. Each hole is hidden from all the rest and all are beautiful. A 5 Star Course for sure! Bob W.

Got Rained out but

from what I saw the course is great, a perfect hilly Donald Ross, it is a little shaggier and less maintained than the Pete Dye Course up the hill but it is a lot of fun and an outstanding value especially after playing Pete Dye

Pete Dye at his best

The course is dramatic in scale, one of the most visually stunning and challenging courses. Caddies are great, course conditions are perfect. Bring your A game and a Camera.

Great Like Always

this course is over 2 hours from home, but my large group ( 5 tee times) tries to play at least once every year and we almost always make other trips 2-3 times a year. Early in the year it often doesn't appeal as much to the eye due to the zoysa not changing fast enough as its a little farther north than norm but it is so hearty and it is a different feel. Rough is always penal, so keep it in the short stuff. If i lived close, there is no question I would join and play weekly.

Finally got a chance to play this course yesterday, 5/22/2020. The course is beautiful and very well maintained! Along with the golf being challenging, fun, and one of the best courses I've played on, the customer service was hands down the best I've ever received! The gentleman in the pro shop were very friendly and above and beyond accommodating. Just an amazing experience overall. I will absolutely be back again for another round.

Little piece of paradise

If you ever want a nice ride around the hills of southern Indiana then this is the place ! Hidden in the outskirts of Jasper on a country road south of town is where it is . This course has a little bit of everything from a couple of links style holes , lots of tree lined holes , every hole presents a challenge in one way shape or form ! The only drawback of this course is it holds water so if it has rained a couple days before you play it , expect a few holes to be very soggy ! It is a 2nd shot course but your club choice off the tee is paramount ! Great track , great rates ! Fun all around

Thrills in the Hills

Our group travels a three state area: Illinois, Indiana , Missouri, and plays scramble format. Sultan’s Run set up perfectly for us. Lots of dramatic elevations changes. 3 of the 4 par 3’s are plunging downhill shots. The basic format on the par fours is elevated tee box to downhill doglegging fairways lined with trees. Spectacular views. And the fairways are more generous than tight and the greens, while elevated, are large and fast. The course is a fun, fair challenge. The staff had everything well prepared for covid-19 social distancing. They made us feel safe but not at all inconvenienced. As seniors we paid $45, making Sultan’s Run a treat well worth the money. We will be back.

We are fortunate to have this great course in our area. Course layout is fantastic and very playable. Course Superintendent and employees keep the course on fine shape. The clubhouse staff are very friendly and accommodate our needs.The cart attendants are also very friendly and informative about hole positions and cart path requirements.
Can't leave out the 18th. hole people.
They are also friendly and efficient.

Great course and Great people.

Sultan's Run is a hidden gem in Jasper, Indiana. Has 5 or 6 holes that would be considered signature holes at other courses. The staff is helpful and very friendly.
