Zellwood

Zellwood is always a fun,challenging course. The conditions of the course were great for peak dry and busy season in Central Florida, with overseeding giving the fairways a nice thick green look and feel. The 9th hole"trainwreck" always lives up to it's name, and the back 9 around the crater is a hoot. Always on my list for great value and playability in the area.

Eagle is rough

Played eagle dunes a few times over the winter and enjoyed the layout, fairly long and wide open with alot of big waste bunkers and rolling hills. This time the course was in a little rougher shape,with weedy patches and dead spots on most of the greens, making a true rolling putt hard to find . Some of the fairways had bare spots and a few big bunkers had sort of caved in spots on the side. Hopefully it is just a seasonal recovery time as the staff is great and it is a fun track to play,definitely ok on a hot deal but a little iffy at full price.

Mt Dora

The old course at Mt dora always presents a fun,challenging round. The staff is always friendly and the greens crew has worked really hard over the last year to keep fairways tees and greens in great shape. The shorter yardage makes many people think this is an easy track,but big elevation changes,smaller fast greens and tough approaches five it plenty of challenge. I play here quite a bit and always feel welcome and look forward to coming back. It's a great value on a nice old fashioned course.

Lake Diamond

This is a very nice,challenging course. It plays pretty long,but also has a high value on really good shot placement. The greens are huge,sloped and in great shape. Tees and fairways are in pretty good shape,maybe a few thin spots, but for peak dry season in Florida not bad. Pace of play was great,not many people on course on a Tues. A definite do over,just don't tell too many people lol.

This course is a not too hidden gem. They have kept it in great condition over the busy dry winter months, and the fairways and greens still have nice grass,greens are nice and true. We went off as second time of the morning so pace of play was great.

Zellwood

Zellwood was a pleasant surprise. I live about 20 miles away and haven't played it yet,so my first time around was fun. I was 2nd tee time off so finished in 237. Fairways were in good conditions, the greens were very fast and firm,really nice. The layout was hilly and a bit tricky for a newbie, but I will be back.

Hidden Valley

Great course stuck in the middle of a beautiful somewhat remote valley in PA. Picked it off golfnow while camping in the area and was pleasantly surprised, nice views,good condition, and a storm rolled through right before our tee time then cleared up as we began. My wife and I were paired with a local guy that knew the course very well and was a blast to play with. Highly recommend. And,every putt breaks away from the mountain! Thanks Doug!

Spruce Creek

Very nice course just north of the villages. The greens were in perfect condition, rolling fast but not punishing, and fairways still had plenty of grass to hit shots from,a bonus during the dry busy season. Tee boxes good as well,and it seemed it was laid out so if you hit a couple of decent shots you could get to the greens and score well. Pace of play was fantastic, I booked as a single and the other 2 didn't show up so I went off first thing with no one in front of me, although I believe 200 golfers were scheduled to follow. A do over for sure.

Dare the bear

Black Bear is in great shape. The greens rolled nice and true, fast but not lightning. Fairways and teeboxes are in nice shape too,and we played 18 in 3 hours and 35 minutes on a Thursday afternoon. A nice value and definitely a replay.

Colinas

Both courses at mission inn are always a treat,with los colinas playing a little more straightforward and not as devilishly tough as el campeon. That said,it still has some teeth,with many long par 4s and a few wicked 200 + 3s.Greens and tees are always some of the best in the area,and they are doing alot of work on the course now.Highly recommend,they have a reasonable senior rate mon-thurs.

Mt Dora golf club is a solid,mid level course.The tee boxes and greens are in good shape,some of the fairways are a bit rough,but it is July in Florida so to be expected.The lady at the desk was great,and we went off 2nd in the a.m. so pace was great.A good value all around,worth playing,especially w a hot deal.

Los Colinas

Mission Inn never disappoints, I got a great hot time deal and dodged forecast storms for a nice 18 on Wed afternoon. Los Colinas was in great shape,the greens clean and firm but not super fast so they were very playable. A couple of spots on 1 or 2 fairways looked like they had been recently repaired, but didn't affect play.I have played El campion in my last 3 trips to Mission Inn,but kind of forgot how nice Los Colinas is.This remains my favorite golf destination in Central Florida, they just do golf well here.

Sleepy Hollow

This was my first time staying in my wife's hometown area around Cuyahoga Falls,spent a couple days hiking and wanted a round of golf before heading home to Mich.I got a good deal on an early tee time,and was very impressed by sleepy hollow.The starter was a genuinely nice fellow,very welcoming and took the time to fill us in on the nuances of the course.The course itself was immaculate,having just hosted the greater Cleveland amateur the prior 2 days.The setting at the top of the valley was gorgeous,rivaling many northern Michigan courses,and it was pretty tough too.Much fun was had,played with a couple of nice guys from the area.
