The course covers 218 acres and is dedicated solely to golf. When played from the back tees at over 7,700 yards, Purgatory is the longest golf course in Indiana. There are a minimum of six tees on each hole, so the course will tempt golfers of all skill levels. When played from the front tees at only 4,400 yards, Purgatory is one of the shortest courses in Indiana.
Bent grass covers the course from tee to green.
Tall grasses make the rough beautiful to view, and torture to escape. One of the clubs defining features is the bunkering. There are over 125 bunkers on the course. These bunkers define the holes visually, and outline many of the fairways. A snack cart keeps last minute items available.
