Played On 03/29/2018This course offers good value
All staff was friendly and accommodating. The course was not busy so pace of play was great on this day. Greens were in great shape and the fairways were ok at this price point. It is an interesting design and worth a play. The price represents good value.

Played On 03/27/2018Good course to play
First let me say that I played this course 2 months ago so the fact that I returned with so many options in the area will tell you I see value in the course. The greens had just been sanded but putted well in spite of that. They were a real test on my previous outing. The layout has a nice variety of holes. The bag drop guy was excellent as was the pro shop staff. I was critical of the starter on my previous visit so was pleasantly surprised with to-days starter who provided pertinent information about the course and was very up beat as well. A great ambassador for the course. I played in a threesome and we saw no one behind or in front of us until we caught two groups on the last hole. Needless to say this made for a very pleasant round. In summary the greens are good here with a nice variety of holes. I have played a 5 hours round here and a 3 hour round so pick your tee times carefully as this course can be busy, but it is worth a play and replay.
Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course
Played On 03/22/2018premium golf course
check was well staffed and polite. I didn't get a cart until 10 minutes before my tee time as course was heavily booked. having said that the staff turning around carts did an excellent job considering the situation. The design was excellent although a little difficult for most players. The greens were fast and with undulations and the grain was actually a factor in putting here. A couple of par 3' s over water had the area between the green and water shaved sown so balls that were poorly struck would roll of into the water. On a lot of holes only one side of the fairway left a clear shot to the green, while the other side meant you would have to work the ball to get at the green. Park your ego and enjoy this quality challenging course. My only problem was it was a 5 hour round and a guy in the group ahead of us drove his cart back to the tee to hit three of the tee because he could not find his tee ball and didn't hit a provisional. By the look of his swing and 2nd tee ball he was a decent player and as such should have known better. So the solution? A ranger? Don't over book? Neither of these would appear to be in the interest of the owner. My suggestion is book in the off season or when the weather is less desirable to golfers so the course won't be crowded. In summary great course, great staff terrible pace of play.

Played On 03/20/2018a challenging golf course worth a play
Challenging lay out and very tough when windy. Greens were a little slow but very playable. Well worth a play at $40. Pace of play was great due to the weather fore cast scaring people away.
This course is improving
This used to be a course I played regularly but it fell into terrible shape a few years a go. I drove by this year and it looked in better shape than it had been so i played it again. They have made a lot of changes mainly filling in bunkers which has made the course easier, helping the pace of play as well as making the course easier. The greens are in good shape now and the course is playable once again. When i arrived there was a large group on the first tee which made me think that the round would be slow. The starter did a good job getting the groups off although he was stressed and the pace of play was acceptable considering how busy the course was.
Green Valley Country Club
Played On 03/13/2018The greens are the highlight of this course
The greens run very fast and have undulations making them very difficult. The fairways are basically dead or sparse. The traps are good and the tees are ok. In summary a difficult layout with very difficult greens making this course a real challenge to score. The price is always around $25 and this is very good vallue.

Played On 02/05/2018Good value
This course is in good shape, good design, and great value for the dollar. Unfortunately the pace of play was slow.
Rio Pinar Golf
Played On 02/01/2018nice old style course with some bite
greens rolled nicely with good undulations. Fairways and tees reflect that it is winter in Florida. This course is challenging and great value for the money.
Oaks National Golf Club
Played On 01/25/2018Course is not for everyone
The greens run true and speed is good although a few have bad patches. There are a few holes that most will not appreciate. Some hazards are not visible from your tee shot which some view as poor design. This course is good value and get over the holes with design quirks as this can not be changed easily. It is good value and accept the fact you will have a hole or two where you feel cheated by the design. If you play it a few times you will know how to play the course and your score will reflect the knowledge gained.
Eagle Creek Golf Club
Played On 01/16/2018nice golf course, worth playing
This course has a nice variety of holes and is in
excellent condition. The play was slow but course was busy. I would advise not to book a tee time after 1 P.M. if you want to finish your round and expect slow play as the bunkers are punitive and the greens are fast which makes the round enjoyable but tends to slow play down. My only criticism and I hesitate to mention but I don't care to listen to the starter tell me how busy he is. He does not appear to be a great representative for the course. He did set up the tee off schedule well though. I just don't think anyone golfing here cares hear about his lot in life. The bag drop guy and the inside staff were great, very upbeat which shows well for the course.

Played On 01/13/2018well worth playing
The greens are very smooth, no blemishes and decent speed. Tees are in great shape as are the traps. As for the fairways it is winter. Sand has been used by members on the fairway divots. Played this course on a cold windy day so pace of play was not an issue as i never caught anyone on the course. I had the course to myself and took extra putts and chips and played in just over 2 hours. I like the challenge of the layout and would go back any time. Hats off to the greens superintendent for prioritizing his resources correctly. I have been on the board of directors of a private course and am more aware of the issues he faces than most golfers would be.
we appreciate your great review!

Played On 01/11/2018course on way back from huricane
fairways have been reseeded and filling in nicely. Greens are reseeded and filling in nicely, however, are slow as they have not grown in sufficiently to cut down to playing height. If you wait for 2 months this course will be fine otherwise be careful to pay under $25 and expect slow greens.

Played On 01/09/2018they are trying
This course is not in great shape but is priced appropriately. They have sanded greens, seeded the approach to greens and sodded some tees. They are working on it to improve it but have yet to realize the fruits of their labor.

Played On 03/23/2017An enjoyable course to play
A good design and a very enjoyable course to play. It is in good shape. One of the few courses that has a ranger. Good for them..
Legends Golf & Country Club
Played On 03/02/2017This course remains plagued with slow play
The staff are all good here. The course layout and shape is good. I cannot recommend this course as I endured a 5 hour round due to a 4 some who were two groups ahead of us that failed to keep up with the group in front of them. We played in the afternoon and saw the starter drive by and wave but did not address the issue. My guess is someone told him to go out and check the pace of play and address it, but he didn't want to get involved for what ever reason. I understand courses have busy days and long rounds can occur but what makes this an issue at this course is that I have experienced it before other years and have seen nothing done to resolve the situation. So for my money I will not return until I start to see reviews indicating that this issue has been addressed.

Played On 02/23/2017A do not play course
I am always aware that you get what you pay for and accept a course for what it is and how it rates within it's price range. Having said that, you cannot tell the difference between fairway and rough and the tees are bad. This I can accept in this price range. The greens are terrible, very bumpy. So as a result I am at a loss to find anything positive to say about this course. How about, if you golf once or twice a year and like to drink a box of beer as you do then this course is for you.
MetroWest Golf Club
Played On 02/02/2017wide open fairways
Very user friendly, wide fairways off the tees. Trouble is found on second shot. Greens are good. Good course for all levels of golfer. Good value.
Green Valley Country Club
Played On 01/28/2017course is a good test of golf
Greens are exceptional for a round of golf in this price range. Excellent variety of holes with a few that are very difficult so select your tee blocks wisely and enjoy your round. The pace of play could suffer here if you play the wrong tees.
Cypresswood Golf & Country Club
Played On 01/26/2017course is a little rough
This course is a little rough but price is good. you get what you pay for in the Orlando area so at $25 or less you should not be disappointed here, but over $30 you will be.
Thank you very much for your review. With a new Superintentent in place and a little help from mother nature, I am sure that you will see improvements in the near future. I appreciate your comments.
Sincerely,
Bob Schade - Owner
