Our Comments

Each tee box is surrounded by very nice decorative plantings, hedges, benches, and most importantly at times, shade. An excellent touch.

Clermont is a good course to practice your swing. It doesn't require accurate tee shots which eliminates a lot of frustration. It is long, though, so bring your big club.

The Executive course is an excellent test of irons. There are also shady spots.

Clermont's owner has a great attitude towards his patrons.

They are sometimes closed on days all other courses are open. Rain, snow, darkness, or maybe dew can cause Clermont to open late or close early. Many winter days will find them closed. Call first if in doubt.


8/12/03 - If you really want running fairways, try good ole Clermont GC. When your humble editor can hit a 456yd par 5 in two. Greens, however are more soft - holding approach shots well - and quite slow.

4/15/03 - Fairways a bit thin this spring. Quite playable and long-rolling. Greens a bit thick and slower.

5/30/02 - Greens are fuzzy like a new tennis ball - fairly slow but very consistent - very easy to putt on.

5/16/00 - Smooth, soft greens that roll fairly fast. There is no distinct fairway as the entire grounds have been cut to about 1". Combined with firm ground, drives will roll all day. Add wide-open spaces and you can slam away with your driver on 7 of the nine holes.

4/26/00 - Very smooth but very slow greens. They also have a lot of grain which makes for interesting putts.

8/15/03 - This is the perfect course for the beginning golfer or the golfer that is trying to improve their game. The regulation course allows for bad shots without added frustration of lost balls. The executive course tests the golfers approach game. Excellent learning course.

11/9/02 - This is a great course for beginners. Some holes are long with open fairways (no trees), so bring your big club. The fairways are great. No obstacles to get your ball into. The greens are well maintained. The prices in the spring in summer are higher than the winter rates. - Todd

9/3/02 - Great course for fun with friends. Has a nice bunch of guys in the morning choose up. The Saturday morning game has some tough competition, some really good players. - Ben Louden

7/27/00 - Greens are nice. I love this course. Just grass. No water, no sand traps, no trees, just fairways. - Jon Ostrander.

7/13/00 - This is my home course ... an excellent place to learn as a beginner at an excellent price. You can get carts and rental clubs here. The regulation course is long but doesn't require accurate tee shots (good for me!). The executive course is great practice for the shorter irons. I think Clermont is the best value for the money in the Indianapolis Metro area. - Doug Wampler

3/9/00 - I truly love this course. My wife and I have spent, probably 95% of our golf dollars at Clermont Golf Course. This course is so well maintained! The greens are great and always a challenge. My hat's off to the staff. - Tim Green

7/27/99 - I really enjoyed playing. The course is a very good confidence builder as well as inexpensive. As a beginner I appreciate not walking out broke and frustrated..
