Course needs maintenance

Nice layout, challenging, but needs maintenance bad.
For the $21 it is worth playing, Good opener if you haven't played in a while.

Good value for the price.

This course has lots of water and mini jungles. It is best to use long irons or hybrids off most of the tees. It is not a forgiving course, as the fairways are fairly tight. A good value at only $25 for two including a cart! You will also see the occasional alligator and lots of exotic water fowl for nature lovers.

Course in better than average condition. The included GPS on the golf cart was useful to get distances and be notified of traps and water hazards. Would play here again.

Lovin' the charm & potenial at LAKE ORLANDO

Think about your hometown Muni course that is well designed, a great layout & very memorable - and that's what you have at Lake Orlando.

Lake Orlando's par 3 holes are five star rating. Par 4's demand pinpoint accuaracy and decipline. Bring lots of balls if you’re hitting it off line.

Course needs some love in the condition category - better bunker raking, more watering etc...but it's the type of place that you can see the potential - routing is very good and memorable.

Greens were good and rolled much better than you'd expect.

Course staff is aces!!! Everyone was very friendly at check in, at first tee and post round. It's definitely a course that the regulars & local LOVE.

And by the way - you can't beat the price! 18 holes & cart for how much????
Staff even gave me a yardage book to use because all GPS were in use - classy move.
I'll be back at Lake Orlando when I'm back in the area.

This is not a course I recommend going to. The staff and some of the people they allow to play there is not worth even going for free.

This course has a lot of dog legs and challenging approach shots.

It is a decent course for the price on golf now.com. It is pretty challenging and winds around a lot of trees and water hazards. I would recommend it to my friends. Although the course needs some work and the greens need some rolling.

Tough But Fun

Love the layout. Very challenging because of narrow landing areas and small greens. The course could use some attention but is in playable condition. The greens are slow because of the winter rye, but are usually faster in the summer when the Bermuda comes back. The course is a great value epically in the winter when the nicer courses are so expensive.

Short course with alittle bite.

The course has a nice layout, but requires some maintance. My girlfriend and I enjoyed playing the course. Great price and a good change from courses that are long and open. Your driver is not needed for most holes. Homes are close on some holes, but not a major concern. Lots of water, but fair. I would play this course again. Great find for the price.

It is challenging, water on every hole. The fairways need a little work but fits the price.

The is one of my favorite courses. I lose a lot of balls here. The shorter tee box allow you to play it safe, lose less balls and have a good time.

A OK by ME

Great Tract, really nice layout, however it needs some course maintence attention.....It is a great value for the money. The price matches the condition, not over priced like some courses in the Florida winter.

nice people, nice area

For all the people that like to play different courses and need the value of reasonable rates than this should be added.
On many holes the big hitters should leave driver in bag as fairways are not wide and mistakes cost strokes quickly. Potential to be extremely beatiful course with some cleanup to tee boxes and paths.
Only concern is rate of play dragged to 5 hours with constant slow play. Avoid sat/sun morns and even that concern goes away.

great place to find out what your REAL. handicap is!!

Friendly staff, pace was a bit slow at times but not a problem .Course is laid out so hitting fairways is rewarded, and missing means paying a price.Driver is not always your best choice ...Lots of water if you stray...par3's are all over 140 yards. Greens and fairway were all groomed .GPS on all carts. I will be back

Cheap, challenging, fun!

It's not in the best shape, but perfect for the folder who wants to go play cheap, yet still be challenged. I mean I played for 12 bucks and yea it's a little beat up but it was a blast! Totally worth every penny!

could be a great course

The course was a great value and it was very quiet. There was very few people out so there was no waiting. The course could be very nice if it was kept up. The fairways were in bad shape and were most of the greens. With a little attention this could be a fun course. There are a lot of doglegs which require shots to be placed along with small greens that require accurate approach shots.

Reasonable, just not to my personal liking

Lake Orlando is not a bad course. It's a cheap price, even at times where most courses aren't, centrally located, and a pretty reasonable challenge. There are pretty nice views around the lake, and it seems to mete a reasonable challenge for people at most any level. Still, I don't like the feel there personally. Yardages seem questionable at times and the fairway lies are usually tight and more dirt than grass. The green conditions are fast, but a little inconsistent and again lacking grass in too many spots. A lot of the course needs local knowledge too, a lot of half-blind shots, hidden hazards, and doglegs that are tough to gauge. Still, I do think many would find Lake Orlando a great experience (indeed most people I've played with have enjoyed it there). I just myself haven't had a good feel in a round there, perhaps the hard ground not working well with my propensity for deep swings. Many will enjoy it, it's just not for me.
