Ok golf course

The fairways were nice as they have over seeded so it was very wet and carts were not allowed. Had to keep in the rough or on the cart path. Rough is very splotchy. If you ended up between two splotches then you were screwed. Greens were nice but they had top dressed. They were in the process of paving the parking lot so parking was a nightmare.

The course is too noisy and I don't like the proximity ratio to greens & tee boxes. Almost got hit from an approach shot to the green while I was sitting in the cart on the next tee box. All the greens seem to slope from front to back or vice versa but not many other variations to the greens. Greens have no contours.
Definitely overpriced for what you get. Carts are gas not electric so too noisy.

Not bad

Fairways were good. They've been overseeded so no carts on the fairway. Greens in good shape but boring. Some contouring but mostly straight putts. Most are sloped back to front or vice versa. The rough is very splotchy so not good if your ball ends up between two splotches. It's a fairly long course for the ladies and with the fairways wet, made for no roll.
There is a creek running thru out. Trouble is not always visible. Sand traps are good.

Nice course

Haven't played here in years so this was a chance to see if conditions have improved. They definitely have. Fairways were pretty decent, greens were good with a few splotches of weeds on a few greens. It had rained the previous night so the greens were not as fast as usual. Some wet spots on the fairways. Definitely would play again. Price was comprable to the course conditions. Tee boxes need some work but as long as the greens are good and fairways decent, tee boxes are not that important to me.

I've always liked the layout of this course. Challenging but fair. The fairways are not as pristine as it used to be but the greens are excellent and quick. Sand traps have good sand and in good condition, tee boxes have been overseeded.

Great layout, overseeded fairways and tees in good shape. Greens have lots of grass but in terrible shape. Greens are bumpy, lumpy and slow. It's too bad that the greens are not given the necessary care and maintenance they deserve. This is the only blemish on a good golf course.

Great Course

Course was in great condition considering it had heavy rainfall 2 days prior. Greens were in good condition, speed was about 10 on the stimp. Obviously good drainage as there were no soggy areas. Pace was great on the front 9 but came to a standstill on the back 9. We had to wait on every shot so its apparent that they inserted some groups on the back 9. Very annoying.

Fabulous course

Great course, always in great condition. Greens are quick and smooth. Hills course was very wet from 3 inches of rain the day before and cart path only. This is a tree lined narrower course than the Jones course. Very challenging and requires thinking about shot placement but still playable for all skill levels.

Nice course

Course conditions were OK but not great. Greens were very bumpy and rather slow, maybe a 9 on the stimp. Obviously not a large budget for course maintenance as the greens could benefit from using a roller regularly. Sand rakes are on the cart, which I despise, so every trap I went in had numerous footprints from the people who forgot to bring the rake and were too lazy to go get it. Hence the reason I despise having the rake on the cart. That said, enjoyed playing the course and would play again but not my first choice.

Good Layout but HORRIBLE Conditions

This course was in despicable shape and I will never go back there. The first 16 holes had probably only been watered when it rained and since it's been a dry winter, if you can find grass, it is dead or parched. Greens were terrible. They were bumpy, lumpy, slow, lack of grass and some had ant hills in them. Once you got to the 17th & 18th holes (which were lined with accommodations), the fairways were green and lush but the greens were still bumpy, lumpy and slow. Funny how the 2 holes that were viewed by guest accommodations were green and lush and the rest of it was pure garbage. Yes, there is construction going on and I'm sure that is their excuse for the conditions but this is just a greedy grab for money and no expenses put into the first 16 holes.

Totally agree with this post.

This course used to be the best kept secret in Orlando. I've played it for years as I visit 2-3 times per year.

At this point, don't let the construction be an excuse. Mystic has been gradually going downhill for years. The ownership of this course have proven the do not care about the course conditions. They are pathetic. Being an avid golfer and past course owner, I'm aware of what is needed to maintain a course. To allow a course to become in this bad of shape it takes more than "weather" or a
"greenskeeper" to be the cause this is a management issue. Advising staff to say it's "not in good shape now" and "watch for construction" only works for a short while. I've been hearing similar excuses for years. Frankly, I'm more than disgusted, this was a course that I always look forward to playing, now I just get angry thinking about it.

Wyndham, this is the best, horribly manage golf course in America. Golfers, it's time we all pick another course so we can help out other golfers, out of their misery, who would have been fooled by Mystic's excuses. Maybe then someone would wake up and realize changes, at every level, need to be made.

To demonstrate how frustrated I am, this is the first time I've ever written a review in a course. I've played for 55 years and am a good player. Absolutely no excuse to ruin such a great layout.

Love this course

This is a tight course with club selection at a premium. Lots of areas where you need big carries off the tee. Tee box selection is crucial depending on ability. Greens are always awesome and fast (at least 11 on the stimp). Fairways are lush with lots of elevated greens. Love the new red tee box on 18 which gives me a chance to make the corner. Horribly slow round at 5 hrs but that was the first time we've had that happen and hope we don't run into that again.

Challenging

I enjoy playing this course. Fairly flat but a challenge nonetheless. I consider this a tight course so accuracy is well rewarded. Not a lot of trouble on the front but more on the back. Greens are fast (approx 9.5 to 10). Very cold and windy when we played.

Always enjoy this course. Greens were hard but fast (I'd guess 9.5 or 10 on the stimp). Lots of elevation changes so club selection is crucial. Fairways were good but not great. Accuracy off the tee is a must as some holes are tight.

Horrible conditions

This has to be the worst playing conditions I have ever played in 30+ years of golfing. I cannot believe that it is even open. It is clear that this has received some damage from mother nature but obviously there is no money to repair it. We were told the greens had been top dressed but there was an awful lot of sand for just top dressing. Some greens had several ant hills. Most tee boxes were so hard that it was impossible to put a tee in the ground. Fairways had deep trenches all over with minimal grass. No ball washers or garbage cans. Very little signage directing you to the next hole. It's apparent that someone had some grandiose plans for the course and the homes (there are some grand homes) but ran out of money. Don't waste your money!

Course conditions were excellent and greens were very fast. There was a Mini-Tour event being played the same day as we were there so the course was set up very difficult for the average golfer. Greens were exceptionally fast with difficult pin positions. Have played this course previously when the course setup was not as difficult.

This is a challenging but fair course. It does require you to think about where to place your tee shots and approaches. Greens are quick but not excessive (probably a 10 on the Stimp). Some narrow fairways and some wide open. Lots of trees and water.
