Plum Creek, IN
Plum Creek Golf Club is home to a locally well-regarded open parkland layout. Located in the northern outskirts of the city of Indianapolis, and formerly a member of the Pete Dye Golf Trail, Plum Creek exudes many classic Pete Dye design features.
This eminently playable and relatively open layout features tall grasses, multiple water hazards, strategically placed bunkers, testing green complexes and plenty of challenge for golfers of all skill levels.
The front-nine loop winds through the Plum Creek neighbourhood, with the holes laid out in pairs, one heading out, one back. The back-nine loops around Purdue University's Lynwood Barn and features most of the water hazards. Here you'll find large ponds flanking the fairways, and plenty of long ribbon like bunkers as well as mischievous pot bunkers ... giveaway Pete Dye traits.
Pick of the holes: the par-5 17th and par-4 18th holes create an excellent finishing duo, both flanked by the same large pond.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.

Plum Creek was formerly a member of Indiana's Pete Dye Golf Trail. Established in 2011, the Trail was set-up to showcase some of the great man's courses in Indiana. In 2024, the Trail included: Birck Boilermaker (Kampen-Cosler and Ackerman-Allen course), Brickyard Crossing, French Lick (Pete Dye course), Maple Creek, The Fort and Tippecanoe CC.
Women’s (British) Open: the last women’s major championship of the season is hosted by Royal Porthcawl GC. It’s the first time this fabulous seaside links course has hosted the event (July 31-Aug 3).
Walker Cup: the 50th playing of this prestigious men’s amateur event sees the GB&I go head-to-head against the defending USA team at Cypress Point Club, California (Sept 6-7). After that, all eyes turn to Bethpage State Park on Long Island, NY, where the American and defending European professional teams engage in the 45th Ryder Cup (Sept 27-29).
Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.
Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf. Just over the fence and sharing similar terrain is Royal St George’s; but Prince’s is far from overshadowed by its venerable neighbour. The three nine-hole loops at Prince's, laid out over gently undulating terrain, are sure to bring a smile of satisfaction to all lovers of links golf.
Stay&Play at Prince's: excellent onsite Lodge accommodation available
