French Lick Resort - Donald Ross Course

Donald Ross's 1917 design at French Lick Resort is a masterclass in Old World architecture — holes that rise, fall, and roll repeatedly over a gorgeous meadow property, cresting ridges and riding into hollows toward well-bunkered, crowned greens. A perfect complement to the adjacent Pete Dye Course, the Ross layout rewards finesse and course management over raw power. Golf Digest ranks it #8 in Indiana.
