Mansion Ridge is a solid course in the area. It's fun to play, carts are nice, conditions usually good.

I have a few things that made me go 4 instead of 5 stars:

1) Overpriced, especially mid season. Most comparable courses in the area 100-120 for AM tee times, Mansion Ridge consistently charges 140-160. It's not nice enough to justify that cost
2) I don't know when the USGA came in, but this course is not a 139 slope from the Championship tees. Yes there is some high grass off the fairways, but it's a consistent handicap deflator type of place
3) Only irons on the range. Hard to charge this much money and not be able to hit even a fairway wood.

I've been coming to Eagle Creek twice a year for 7 years at this point. We originally chose the course years ago because it was close to the airport, but this is now on our "must play" list when we visit Orlando.

The main reason? The conditions get better every year. They've improved the bunkers tremendously to where they're perfectly fluffy, and the greens were absolutely FLAWLESS. I'd venture to say this course was in the best shape out of all of the courses we played this time around.

For the condition, speed of play, price you pay, you won't find a better course in Orlando.
