Indiana Golf Courses : Porter County
In 1836 Porter County was formed, including the territory now comprising both Porter and Lake Counties, with Portersville as the county seat. In 1837, at the suggestion of the residents, the Indiana General Assembly changed the name of the county seat to Valparaiso, which is Spanish for (Vale of Paradise), to symbolize the beauty and wealth of the lakes and beaches and rich agricultural land surrounding it. Porter County is located approximately 40 miles southeast of Chicago. The northern portion of the county lies along the shores of Lake Michigan and includes the great dunes of the National Lakeshore and many industrial sites such as the International Port of Indiana. The City of Portage, Town of Chesterton, Burns Harbor, Ogden Dunes, Porter, Beverly Shores, Dune Acres, and the Pines populate this northern boundary of Porter County. As one travels south, the rolling hills of the moraine begin to define the landscape at the center of the county where the City of Valparaiso operates as the County Seat. The southern portion of the county is dominated by fields of corn and soybeans upon the great outwash plain. This mostly agricultural landscape contains the two communities of southern Porter County: Kouts and Hebron. Porter County is made up of several thriving communities and opportunities for future community and economic development. Economic Development initiatives and successes throughout the County are a result of excellent communication between local economic development corporations. Let’s see the Indiana Golf Courses in Porter County.

This course was built on rolling terrain, so expect some uneven lies in the fairly narrow and tree-lined fairways. Water hazards come into play on many holes. The signature hole is 4, a 388-yard, par 4, requiring a long tee shot up a dogleg right fairway in order to set up a clear approach shot to the green.
