Mount Dora Golf Club

Three of us play regularly and enjoy the course and each other!! Our finishing cocktail at the 19 th hole completes a great day of golf and friendship!

This course was built by servicemen after they came back from the war. The land was given on a 100 year lease for a $1. How patriotic! If you like a course where the holes go back and forth against one another, this is your course. Just pray everybody else can hit 'em as straight as you. Otherwise it's a very dangerous layout. .I liked the length of the holes and the hills on some of them. For the size of the greens (small), I did not appreciate several of them being domed. Hard to keep your ball on the green either on the approach shot or during putting. Liked the history, didn't care for the course.

First time this season here. Pace was faster than last year which was good. Fairways and greens were painted green which was kinda weird. We’ve been there before and knew that some of the greens were crowned but on 17 it was ridiculous. Below the pin- rolled back of the green. Above- if you putted two inches past the flag, it rolled back off the front again. Just golfing for fun but that was a real negative.

Would highly recommend that anyone wanting to enjoy a good round of golf. Staff friendly and helpful

I find this course relaxing and technical at times. Really nice elevation changes, Every green was in excellent shape. Most of the tee boxes were in good shape. Pace of play was outstanding. Not only would I recommend this course to a friend, I brought friends out with me. I’ve been here twice, and have been impressed both times.

The tees and greens are in great shape! Pace of play ok, you will run into alot of no cart players. But that is part of it. Always love playing this course. Always has that challenge to it!!

Pros: Greens in fantastic shape (slow but clean and smooth). Course maintains the old layout keep history. There's a few holes with some elevation which is nice and different in this state

Cons: Fairways were not in great shape. Bunker sand was very hard. Only 1 hole had water, which left layout/challenge lacking (but could be a good thing for most).

100% would play again.

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.

I’ve recently gotten back into golf and have been playing a lot of local courses in Central Florida and the Mount Dora Golf Club course is one of my favorite finds. While the holes are relatively straight and wide open, there are multiple changes in elevation, which is unusual for the metro Orlando area. The greens are small and were in great shape, but be careful of the roll off in several of them. The fairways were good and the tee boxes were underwhelming. I will definitely be bringing friends back here to play.

What a great hidden golf course! First time I’ve played, and I cannot wait to go back. Course was in great shape. Staff was amazing. Even the other golfers were nice! Lol.

Staff is always great and the course continues to get in better condition. If you want a non traditional FL course with some elevation and some challenges this is your spot! Great value!

Course check in was very friendly. Staff is doing really good. Value and amenities in the pro shop for drinks. Equipment were fine. Course was built in 1945. I have wanted to play this course for decades. Condition the chorus was good with the greens winter rye working well. Where the course was average Fairway condition. No complaints. It is winter. Horse has mature oak. Trees on most fairways layout was not too difficult But is similar to many older courses that are over 50 years old that have small greens and limited imagination and some steep slopes. That was unusual for Florida. I don’t plan on playing there again. The golf wasn’t very fun. Payson play was good as we teed off at 12:45 PM and one of the last groups today and most the last groups are all Tucson. Some play was good. Per 72, 5900 yards. Not recommending unless you’re playing in a four team scramble. Then it would actually be entertaining and a good place to have a cold drink on a nice day. Weather was great.

A tough little course. Good condition and challenging. I will go back
