Simply put this is the best public golf course in the entire area of South Bend to Laporte. It is not Warren, but it’s pretty close. It rained the night before a little but it was still pretty dry all things considered. And it was still playable unlike any course. And scorable if you check your distances. Clubhouse/Staff: This is a very nice facility with lounge and deck seating to view the courses first tee box and 18 green. Phenomenal view. The carts are pretty fast so hang on! Jimmy in the clubhouse went above and beyond in making our day special. Setting us up with arrival times with the…

Golf Course Reviews "Fore" U Wicked Girls Golf traveled to Elbel Park Golf Course in South Bend, IN for a beautiful May Day of golf. Elbel Park is a short drive from downtown South Bend, an Eastern Daylight time zone. This is a city course, but don’t let that concern you. The natural beauty of the parkland setting embraces numerous nature areas, the Mud Lake wetlands, animal habitats and stunning terrain. Elbel Park is a full-service golf course, appealing to golfers of various skill levels. The tree-lined, bentgrass tees give way to the immaculately manicured fairways. You will find a driving…

One of my favorite municipal courses. Greens are definitely looking better this year. The rough is ROUGH!!! Could be because of the excessive rain we have been receiving lately and cant be cut as often. Rough is definitely too long though. Other than that I had a good round. Be aware that you can book a tee time online and save money. 11 dollars saved is 11 dollars saved!

What a gem of a municipal golf course! My son and I are from London, UK and arrived an hour late due to time zone errors as we travelled from San Francisco to the East coast. We spoke with Jim in the pro shop and he was so warm and welcoming! He sorted out a new tee time, provided us with a course guide and directions and two buckets of range balls to loosen up! We also met Hayley behind the bar and she was as friendly as Jim. Add to this the great value for money for 18 holes, the beautiful course condition and fun holes with many doglegs and fierce par 3s on the back nice and this place is a…

Great golf course! Lots of dog legs left and right. Not many bunkers. Every thing cut real nice. Greens run good. Great experience. Will be going back.

This was one of the best Muni courses I've ever played. Well kept fairways, good bunkers, and true rolling greens.

One of my favorite courses in town, offering 18 holes, two putting practice greens, and a driving range, all open to the public. By far one of the nicest public courses I've ever been.

Course was in pretty nice condition considering all of the rain. A little challenging but forgiving, roughs were pretty plush, greens were smooth but receptive. Would like to see a ranger, pace was kind of slow but it is a Saturday. Overall I was impressed and will return.

Pretty good course. Food is great! The amenities were a little less appealing for a course in this price range. No cover for your clubs on the cart or coolers attached to the cart, no weather brace for the carts. We played on a wet rainy day, and lack of weather related items even in the pro shop was suprising. Would definitely recommend it on a nice weather day.
