Cascades Golf Course Outings

Cascades is owned and operated by the City of Bloomington, Indiana. This facility is a 27-hole championship golf course with a clubhouse banquet room and pro shop. The course rests on 200 acres of beautiful rolling hills with native trees and natural topography. Named for the natural cascading waterfalls located throughout the golf course property, several waterfalls can be heard, and possibly seen.

Cascades Golf Course consists of three nine-hole courses, which can be combined to create three separate 18-hole configurations. The Quarry course and Pine Course were built in 1928 and 1931 respectfully. Our newest nine, the Ridge, was built in 1999. All three nines average 3,000 yards which makes it short and fun for every type of golfer.

The following information is provided to help you plan a successful golf outing.
