City of Gary's Gleason Golf Course

Gleason Golf Course plays nine holes at 6,312 yards and par 71, with a driving range. The par and yardage figures suggest this is a regulation-length 18-hole equivalent played as two loops of nine, or a long nine-hole routing with high par. Either way, the total yardage is substantial. The course sits on the flat Great Lakes plain that characterizes northwest Indiana’s landscape near Lake Michigan.

This city-operated course is on Jefferson Street in Gary, one of the larger municipalities in northwest Indiana. Economy pricing makes it accessible for the community. Gary is part of the greater Chicago metro area, and the course is close to both the Indiana Dunes and the Illinois state line. Play runs from April through October in this part of the state.
