The course is very pleasant to look at and the greens are SLICK which I really liked. It is a very challenging course and you really need to know where youre hitting it as far as lines of sight go. The greens were not only slick but PURE. The one shortcoming was the fairways. As good as the rest of the course was the fairways were this bad. There were spots in the fairway that were VERY THIN and spotty on every hole. I dont know if they aerated them recently but it look as if they ran a disk or something over them. One thing that kind of stunk also was that they didnt have a driving range on site. TO hit balls before your round I guess you had to go to the Pete Dye course down the road. Overall I was very pleased with the experience (though not my play). The service was great and I enjoyed the speed of the greens I just wish the fairways were in much better shape.

The course had a beautiful and playable layout. There really was nothing spared in its construction. Its located in Southern Indiana. We started our day off with a poetic sight as the sun crept over the trees bringing life to the fairways and greens of the course. As the day went on the trees surrounding the course funneled a cool breeze on us as we played under the sunny sky. Later in the evening we sat outside of the club house after having an extremely satisfying meal at Hagens (the club house restaurant), and watched the most spectacular sunset that just simply highlighted the course with reds, oranges, and purples. Without a doubt a trip i will forever remember.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff at the golf facility and dining room. The golf course was challenging and classic Donald Ross layout and greens. The fairways are nicely shaped but with some spotty area of thin grass. Greens are quick and challenging. Only drawback was multiple unrepaired ball marks on many greens.

This course was amazing! from the time I drove into the parking lot until the time that I left, I was made to feel welcomed and it was obvious the service was genuine. I have played a lot of golf all over the United States and this track will be in the top 3 for a very long time. I am a fan forever!! PGA Apprentice

Played a 18-hole tournament with the Porsche Club and had a great experience. Clean facilities and beautiful landscape. Friendly staff and courteous groundskeepers. The food provided was also very good and the servers were excellent. Would love to play at this course again.

Wow - super track. Amazing conditioning and challenging layout. Not a flat lie anywhere but tee boxes, which isnt fun for everyone but I enjoy it. Greens have some really hard slopes so Id love to play this course a few times and use them. Service was also very good.

On the Par 5, my drive landed on the cart path and rolled close to the green. I chipped it on and 2 putted. That was very exciting. The staff were very nice. The course was fun to play.

Great golf course. Solid design, not a gimmicky modern course. Wicked fast greens with lots of undulations. Can play very long, lots of appropriate tees.

Definitely a good test of skills. Playing to the right position on the greens was critical. Condition of the course was great.

A true classical gem! Well deserving of its number 2 ranking in Indiana! Well done French Lick!
