Indiana Golf Courses La Porte County In 1832, when La Porte County was formed, it only extended as far south as the southern line of present Clinton Township. The land to the south became a part of Starke County when it was organized but the people living in that area had difficulty getting across the Kankakee River to go to Knox (the county seat of Starke County) to pay their taxes, having to go east as far as Lemon's Bridge. They asked to be annexed to La Porte County and this was done January 28, 1842. The area was first called Van Buren Township, named after President Martin Van Buren. Then, on January 10, 1850, twenty sections of land were taken from St. Joseph County on the east and added to La Porte County to give La Porte County its present boundaries. For more than 150 years La Porte's business community has provided for the people of this area, the country and the world. From steel product, bread and bun, machine tools, farm implements, radiators, washing machine parts, milk, grain, hogs and fruit to shoes, dry cleaning, grocery products and televisions, La Porte makes and sells it all. Let’s see the Indiana Golf Courses in La Porte County.

Indiana Golf Courses Comments:
This is a ten hole course. Hole 10, a 159-yard, par 3, is used by the golfer who wants to play eighteen holes and is played in lieu of hole 6 during the second round. This course is very hilly, has tree-lined fairways. Even though there are no water hazards on the course, the unusually hilly terrain will offer very few level lies. The greens are large, undulating and elevated. There are additional sets of tees that can be used when playing an eighteen hole round.

This fairly tight course puts a premium on shot accuracy. Water hazards (ten ponds) come into play on twelve holes. The tree-lined fairways are predominantly flat, but there are a few rolling hills that can cause uneven lies. The greens are undulating, well bunkered, and about half are elevated.

Indiana Golf Courses Comments:
This course was built on flat terrain and is easy to walk. The fairways are narrow, and water hazards come into play on three holes. The small greens are fast and difficult to read. One of the most difficult holes on the course is 6, a 496-yard, par 5, requiring a tee shot up a narrow, dogleg right fairway with water coming into play on the left, then an approach shot to a green protected by a large sand bunker on the left and large trees on the right.

This facility has an eighteen hole regulation course, plus an eighteen hole executive course. The North Course, the executive design, has a wide-open front nine. Its back nine has water hazards coming into play on seven holes. This is a good course for practicing your iron shots. The hilly terrain comes more into play on the back nine. The large greens throughout the course are well bunkered. The South Course has water hazards coming into play on three holes. The fairways vary in width and the large greens are well bunkered.
