Plum Creek Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Opened in 1998, this Pete Dye design has hosted several high-level college and professional golf tournaments while simultaneously serving thousands of enthusiastic amateur golfers throughout greater Indianapolis and beyond. With five sets of tees ranging from just under 7,000 yards to just over 5,000, Plum Creek is playable by all golfers. Several ponds and a winding stream come into play throughout the course, placing a premium on smart play, all while minimizing the need for forced carries for higher-handicap players.

In good conditions although some odd changes from last year
Course is in great shape overall. As always, some bunkers are great and others are six sand pebbles from being concrete. Greens were very smooth and nice and fast; they always have great greens. Fairways are great too; not cut too tight and always well irrigated.
The weird items from last year are the cheap looking green plywood garbage cans covers, the spray-painted hole signs, and using dirt instead of sand on the chipping green. Really disappointing to see these three distasteful changes from 2022. I would consider this course close in quality to Prairie View (albeit much easier and less competitive environment) but these choices are made as if it’s a standard municipal course on a tight budget, and shouldn’t be decisions made by one of the best public courses in Carmel.
Spend the money on legitimate wood structures (like prairie view does) and use sand in the chipping area, not dirt.

Good course
Course was in good shape. Greens were rolling nice. Layout is pretty straight forward. They have a nice range and putting green for warming up. I’ll be back.

Overall good experience
Course was average in terms of layout. Nothing spectacular. However, the fairways and greens were in great shape with the greens putting true and above average speed. Bar and Snack bar were very good, staff at check in was very friendly. Driving range and practice area were excellent. I would play here again, especially if I got the Golf Now price.

Enjoyed the day on a very nice golf course.
Have played here before, but only in outings. So first time playing for score, I played the Blue tee's and enjoyed it very much, the pace of play was OK. The course layout has start that lends itself to slow play. One is a reachable par 4, two is a reachable par 5, and three is a par 3, after that it tends to spread out, and play was fine, so be patient at the start. The course was in exceptional shape, and the greens ran fast and true. Enjoyed the day and the play, look forward to going back soon.

Great value
Loved that they had a senior rate for over 55. Not a super long course l. White tees are very short. Blues were a good distance especially with very little roll because of the wet conditions. Greens had been aerated a week or two earlier but still rolled pretty well. Will play again in the summer
Thanks so much for the great review, Scottherrman. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Plum Creek Golf Club.
