New layout

I never played the old course. The new layout is tighter than most as most of the fairways are tree lined. The greens are smooth and consistent in speed. The restaurant food is very good and reasonably! The price on golf pass is under $40!

Mission Inn

I played the old course this time and except for one green, the greens were smooth and a good pace! The on course cart attendant was timely and the prices were reasonable. There were a few wet areas and the new carts have GPS and you can't drive into any wet spots The GPS showed the hole and was a touch screen so you could see how far that bunker was from the tee box! I have played both courses and enjoyed both of them!

Slow greens

We played on a Sunday so maybe they skipped mowing the greens that day, but the pass of the greens were slow. Other than that the course was in good shape.

Great Place

From booking online to walking into the Pro Shop it couldn't be easier. The staff had our reservation and we were on our way in five minutes. The starter got us two carts and sent us on our way. There were two groups that teed off right in front of us and they never held us up! After we finished we went inside for cold drinks and the staff was great in serving us and refilling our drinks when they got low!! The course was in excellent shape very challenging and the greens were plenty fast and very smooth! The course had a drink cart which stopped several times to see if we needed any drinks or food!! You won't go wrong playing this course! We will be back to play the other 18 soon!

rain

While the rain wasn't heavy it was enough to make it hard to play! We played nine and went in for lunch which was very good! When we came back out it was still raining with no let up in site!

Challenging yet fair

There were several sets of tee markers to choose to play. We chose to play the white tees and it was measured to be 6200 yards! Lots of water but most was only in play with a bad shot!We were only able to play the front nine as the rain started on the 6th hole and didn't stop. We did play the original 18 holes which I understand to be the more difficult of the two courses. It is a beautiful resort and I would recommend it to anyone!

Excellent course for the price!

The greens were in excellent shape not to many leaves on them. The only leaf issues were off the fairways, under the trees. First group off we played in 3 hours 15 minutes as a twosome with a cart. The cost was $15 with the cart!

Small greens tight fairways fire ants all over

Except for one pin placement the rest were fair
Greens small in square footage but the roll of the ball was good
Fairways are narrow but enough space if you are hitting it good you will have no problem
Large active fire ants on all most every hole
A couple of the ponds are hidden but most you will only hit with a bad shot well off line

Slow play for a 6500 yard course

Green speed was slow, but not as slow as the pace of play. Other than the two groups in front of us the course didn't seem like it was crowded. There were no course rangers to be seen and it took over 5 hours to play on a Friday afternoon. The rest of the course was in fine shape and your tee shots needed to be straight as there are many over hanging branches just to the side of many tees that were to easy to hit.
