RedTail Golf Club

About
Atypical of many Florida golf courses, RedTail Golf Club is a links-style layout dotted with 100-year-old oak trees and azaleas among its rolling green fairways. Designed by Dave Harman, who also did Shingle Creek Golf Club in Orlando, the course features four lakes with water coming into play on the last five holes. Holes 14-18 work their way around the largest lake on the course, while the finishing hole's approach shot plays over another body of water in front of the clubhouse. Located in rural Sorrento a little more than a half hour north of Orlando, RedTail Golf Club prides itself on catering to "members only."

18th hole Photo submitted by Jaylo908 on 01/17/2013
To much $ for what you get.
I haven't played there in over a year. I heard that the course was in better condition. No change in layout, but they removed a lot of the waste/ high grass areas. No clubhouse turn from 9 so you have to order by phone and have someone bring it to you. There was a cart person, but only saw them on hole 8 and they were pretty much out of everything and did not have any sanwiches or hot dogs etc. to offer. Only snacks and very limited assortment. The next time we saw the cart person was on hole 18!!!
2 hours and 50 minutes to do 9
Greens sort of slow. Pace of play was terrible even with rangers hep. Weeds in rough
Sad Conditions
If you see a 3 or more stars do not believe it. The winter tie is gone from the heat and this place is sad to say the least.
A group of us went to see if the one stars were actually false. Nope to say the least all 3 stars and above are added by the course to keep it above a 2 star.
Still needs work but best I’ve seen it in years
Greens are pretty good fairways are decent, rest of the course needs work but for the money a good round. It’s the best I’ve seen the course in years but it still needs work
empty course
I would like to say something good about Redtail but can't. This was a fantastic course 8-10 years ago and you would pay a premium price for it. Weeds everywhere on every hole and lots of them. We played preferred lies on the bare fairways. Bunkers were ok as were the greens. Tee boxes were bare and sandy as were most areas around a lot of greens. It needs a major investment in the numerous millions to restore it to its former glory. We only saw one other person playing on the course., but we did only pay $35. Such a shame.
First time
The greens were under distress. Snack bar was okay, limited snacks but at least it was open. Love the layout, and in maybe a month the greens and fairways will be in better shape. Definitely will be back.
Disappointed
This course used to be one of my favorites. It’s now in terrible condition and the pace of play was painful.
First time
Greens and fairways were in good shape. Big plus there The rest was not. No real rough, it’s dirt and weeds. Tree branches down, sand traps were not maintained. Tee boxes sometimes were just dirt. One trap looked and felt like it was construction dirt not sand.
Course could be challenging, quite a few holes you couldn’t see the green and for first timers it was tough to know what you’re hitting into. There is room for mishits, it’s not tight on most holes but if you’re not in the fairway it’ was tough to sometimes find the ball. There were some really cool challenging holes.
Really surprised that this course is built in a neighborhood but it was not busy, had a few groups in front and some behind. Interesting that people in the neighborhood weren’t playing.
Had a cart girl, although she was out of most items. Still was nice to have. Disappointed the grill closed at 3pm, we were looking forward to a few cold ones after playing.
Disappointed
This course used to be in fantastic shape and was a pleasure to play.
Fairways are now in terrible shape and some of the greens are also not very nice.
Really needs someone to put a lot of money in and bring this course back to what it used to be.
It was also extremely slow with two groups in front of us who didn’t have a clue how to act on a golf course.
Awesome day
Great course, great staff. Awesome day of golf!!!!
Redtail Was a Fun Round
Conditions are the best they have been in 3 years. All but 2 of the greens were in pretty good shape. The fairways are filling in with Bermuda grass - last year they were mostly rye grass but this year much more Bermuda. Sand traps were maintained and playable. It would be great if they would remove the large dead trees because the course is a beauty. I would recommend you give it a try.
Course Conditions
Course is in rough shape. Fairways and areas around bunkers are littered with thick weeds. Most greens were in good condition, a few with some areas you could tell they were working on. Although the on course conditions were below average, this course has a really great layout. With some TLC, this could become a course I’d go back to regularly if they worked on making sure the fairways had good grass and were mostly weed free.
Course Conditions
There was a time when this was one of the premier courses in there. Of late there have been some poor reviews and so a group of us decided to have a go at it for ourselves. We were pleasantly surprised… no where as bad as some of the reviews stated… staff was cordial, pace of play was reasonable, some fairways were a little rough (mainly because of recent heavy rains). The greens weren’t perfect, however, in pretty good shape. We will return!
