This course will provide enough challenges to test the ability levels of all golfers. There are several elevation changes throughout the course, making accuracy a must. Water hazards come into play on eight holes, and the medium-sized greens are undulating and fast. The signature hole is #11, a 440-yard, par 4, requiring a tee shot from off an elevated tee that drops eighty feet to a fairway situated between two lakes, then an approach shot to a well-bunkered green. Furthermore, there are some large, tree-covered hills in the back drop.

great golf in the middle of nowhere, Sep 05, 2005

| When I first drove down the highway to this course, I saw such flat farmland that I assumed the course would be pretty uninteresting, but that wasn't the case at all. After about four holes on fairly level ground, the course takes a surprising plunge down to a creek bottom and then comes up to the elevated tee of one of the prettiest fairways anywhere, followed by two more very pretty holes. Thereafter the course runs back up into the flat area before plunging down to the creek bottom again for more pretty holes and finally coming up again for a fine wide par 5 on #17 and a cute little par 3 on #18.
When I first played Indian Springs, I had the course to myself on a cool late autumn afternoon, and it was just gorgeous. The marshall and other staff are just as nice as they can be. What a pleasure to have such a fine course for those of us who grew up and now go back to visit in this remote area. |

Indian Springs - Hidden Jewel, Jan 22, 2004

| This course is in a rural setting, with many farms around. Getting to it is a challenge, but once there, some pleasurable hours will be had. The course was well maintained, with good fairways and well manicured greens. There is almost an "upper level" and "lower level" for play and the elevation changes pretty dramatically for middle Illinois. There are plenty of water hazards, woods and places to make shots, so the course may be tough for new players. For shotmakers, it is a great skill test. The signature hole offers a scenic tee, overlooking two water hazards, gazing out into a woods and just barely able to see the dogleg right hole. Anything too far out or left or right goes out of play, and bunkers guard the green on the approach. The clubhouse has the essentials for refreshments, the price is moderate and the staff are friendly. I would recommend this course to anyone for an enjoyable outing and challenge. |
