Mount Dora Golf Club

Firstly, staff was great and apologetic. Course conditions fair and layout quite nice. Greens are elevated and small, therefore challenging, in good condition, newly sanded and “hairy” and very slow.
Pace of play is absolutely awful - the course obviously has many senior members that feel they “own”’the course and there was no attempt to let people play through - we ended up skipping 3 holes (14,15 and18) as we had waited very long on each hole on the back nine. Pace for first 9 was 2 hours but 2.00 for the second 6 we played. I was in a twosome, 2 foursomes ahead of me playing scramble golf, all senior citizens playing extremely slow and no ranger on the course.

I played two golf courses like this when I was a teenager. They followed the lay of the land without a lot of earth moved and they had a natural feel rather than that of a design imposed on the property. Conditions were modest. Unfortunately, the courses I remember no longer exist, so it was a pleasure to play this course. Mt. Dora has a variety of good holes with significant elevation changes. Greens are small, consistent with an older course. It is a different style than typical FL courses and worth playing, if you love the game.

I usually enjoy playing this course but today, the group in front was so slow and so annoying that we actually did not finish the course.
I have never seen 3 men play so slowly. Did not hit their drives until the group ahead of them was at the green - and their drives were maybe 150 yards - at best!!!
I’m hoping this will not happen again. Sometimes they need to send out a Ranger.
Still I’ll go back because the staff is wonderful!

Decent golf course
Hilly
Hard to find signage and Entrance

First - I love this course - it’s a decent track with some wonderful holes. BUT most of the greens have become unplayable. They are so crowned up that no one’s ball will stay on the green for putting. So, unless you can chip in from the fairway- the ball is not going in the hole! We finally have started “ just add two strokes after you get on or to the green” instead of putting. I’ve played this course for years and it’s gotten worse!

No frills golf course. Staff were awesome. Very laid back atmosphere. Course conditions were great. Greens rolled very good. Will be back.

I would say this course is like a MUNI course that you would find in many areas of the country. The fairways are a little light on fluffy grass but OK for the average golfer. The greens are in fairly good shape. The one thing about the course is that many of the greens are crowned. In some cases if you don't hit the green in the right spot your ball will roll off the green, somethings at least 10 - 20 yard. This may frustrate some golfers but everyone is playing on the same course Price is good and I would play it again if I am in town.

The course is in great shape and it is a fun track to play. But when I play here I don’t ever plan on it being a quick or fast round. A lot of waiting to hit your next shot

The Staff was very friendly! The course is an "old school course" (small greens, tight fairways) that we found very challenging due to small, raised and tilted greens.

Thank you for a great day!
