Indian Springs Golf Course ☆ Follow

Indian Springs Golf Club is a public golf course that opened in 1990 in Mechanicsburg, OH. The 18-hole course was designed by Jack Kidwell and measures 7,109 yards from the longest tees with a slope rating of 137 and a 72.9 USGA rating. The first two nines, known as "The Reserve" and "The Woods," combine for a rating of 71.5 and a slope of 134 from the white tees, which play 6,480 yards. A third nine, designed by Kidwell and Herb Bash, opened in 1998. Greens and fairways are bent grass.

The course is located on State Route 161, which weaves 36 miles west from Columbus through typical Ohio small towns. The course is situated around farm fields but is considered one of the best places to play in central Ohio. To play well at Indian Springs, golfers need to hit the ball high, be good at target golf, hit their woods long and straight, and have the ability to shape their shots. The clubhouse sits high above the courses with views overlooking a large lake filled with reeds and geese.

Golf Digest has given Indian Springs four stars in each of the past five years.
