If you are into misogynistic values, this is the course for you. Gary will take you on a journey to the 1800s when women were refused access to the course. Of course women can play here now, unless it is in Gary’s special year end event. In this event he absolutely does not want women to participate. Oddly, his proudest accomplishment seems to be that he has kept women out of the event for 25+ years. Spend the money and play somewhere else.

Very nice 9 hole executive course. In much better condition than some other executive courses, that charge more.

Where do I even begin…. Been playing here since 2012. I am never ever one to complain but something has to change regarding the tee time system. All summer, I have been told that tee times are required to play this course, which has never been the case. Now that tee times are required I call ahead of time and make one. However, after making a tee time for a specific time slot, I have three groups lined up each time. Seems extremely pointless that I’m told to wait in line when I have made a tee time for about 15 minutes prior. Please change this up because it is driving loyal golfers away from the course.

Great Par 3/4 Golf Course. We took 3 teen boys learning to golf and was probably one of the best Ft Wayne courses to do so. I highly recommend beginners as it's manageable not having big par 5 holes, and it's not crazy busy in the weekday mornings. Friendly staff and well-kept course. Very fair pricing for this 9 hole course. Open to the public.
