This course was the epitome of average, and in the lower end of that definition. The fairways need…read morea trimming bad. There's literal patches of weeds in the middle of the fairways. The grass here is about 1-2 inches taller than most other courses. Even the greens needed a good trim, though the greens overall weren't too bad. Just very slow due to the taller grass. Perhaps coming here on a day they've actually mowed would make a difference. There were also some nice views overlooking the lake. But I'm not there for the view...

I think the pro shop should keep an eye out for groups going off the back, and/or tell every group that checks in not to go off the back.

Having lived all over the Country I have been lucky enough to be able to play some truly…read morespectacular Golf Courses that are pristine and extremely expensive. I didn't even rate some of those courses as 5 Stars for various reasons whether it be the price, staff, or course conditions. Indian Springs is a wonderful course in southern Illinois that presents unexpected challenges and forces a player to use all 14 clubs in their bag. It isn't a 5 Star Course based on Bent Grass, hosting a PGA event or towering fairway bunkers but rather due to the prices, owners, and use of the terrain implemented into their design. This is a wonderful course that has various leagues, hosts tournaments, and treats its guests like friends. Most importantly (to me) is the fact that the owners are beyond friendly and extremely hospitable. I love visiting Indian Springs because she makes me feel like family and is genuinely excited to see me and always thanks me for my Military Service. I won't be playing here for a few years as I move to England but I like forward to coming back next time I'm in Southern Illinois visiting.

Played this course with my two sons on a Saturday morning in early August and really enjoyed it…read more The price was nice at $40, well stocked club house with very friendly staff. Carts have GPS. There is an irons only driving range. Be sure and grab a hot dog from the clubhouse at the turn as they were jumbo and delicious. And the restaurant served us a great lunch after the round. Now for the course and I'll start with the negatives. The fairways are tees are spotty. But in our minds that's the only negatives at this course. The greens were in tip-top condition and a little on the slow side due to keeping them longer to combat summer heat. It was fun to play. The front takes you more through the hills and woods and the back a little more open. But the course is fair with fairways wide enough to hit for even the less skilled player. The course has blind shots, open shots, uphill lies and down hill lies, short holes, long holes, water lined holes, holes you carry over water, you get it-a wide variety of shots that made every hole different. As I remember there were five sets of tees. My sons played gold and I played silver which put my drives about the same distance as theirs. The silver tees made a couple of the holes pretty short. My next visit, and we will play there again soon, I might try teeing it up from the white tees. Pace of play was good with a ranger monitoring play. The three of us had a very enjoyable round and I highly endorse a visit to this southern Indiana golf course.

From the…read moretime a few years ago when my friend and I got cussed out because the top of our crappy cart blew off and knocked the mirror off of an employee's car,(and we were in the clubhouse) to this weekend, with unmowed,unrolled dew covered,diseased greens,to the aforementioned rock hard,unlevel,weed ridden tee boxes and fairways. Then to be charged twice, once by their website and again at arrival. The owner states that they had top ratings two or three years in a row and "it's a country club quality course" give me a break! In the past, we've heard excuses about,the weather,the heat, broken irrigation pipes and on and on all while other courses within 40 miles were pristine. What could improve?? EVERYTHING! Oh, one more thing, employees showing up to work late and starting to put out carts DURING the first tee time is an easy fix! HONESTY is an easy fix. Employees saying that "they can just go somewhere else " (may have been owners) I don't know, but another review mentioned it. But Not saying those things is an easy fix.
