French Lick Resort - Pete Dye Course
French Lick, IN
Pete Dye's mountaintop masterpiece at French Lick Resort, Golf Digest's 2009 Best New Public winner. Measuring over 8,100 yards from the tips, this late-career Dye design showcases rumpled chipping swales, volcano bunkers, and country-lane cart paths across sweeping elevated terrain with multi-mile views in every direction. Ranked on Golf Digest's America's Second 100 Greatest Courses and consistently among Indiana's top three public courses.
Brickyard Crossing Golf Course
Indianapolis, IN
One of the most unique golf experiences in America — four holes play inside the infield of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Pete Dye designed this course with his trademark railroad ties, pot bunkers, and dramatic green complexes. Golf Digest ranks it among Indiana's top public courses.
French Lick Resort - Donald Ross Course
French Lick, IN
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.
