Course Highlights
Zellwood's distinctive layout featuring hills and craters delivers a consistently challenging and beautiful central Florida experience at outstanding value. Exceptionally kind staff, highlighted by welcoming starters, keep golfers returning alongside well-maintained greens with reliable speed.

About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6473 yards
Slope 123
Rating 70.7

A 238-yard par 3, a 259-yard par 4, a treacherous hole called the "Train Wreck" and a five-hole stretch around a cavernous dry lake dubbed "Crater Junction" all help make the semi-private Zellwood Station Golf Club unique. Featuring hilly terrain not often seen at Florida golf courses, the George Maddox design, which opened in 1974, is a challenge. Located about 30 minutes from Orlando, Zellwood Station G.C. is known to be in good shape, especially the greens.

Meh

Overall I would say this is a terrific place to play beer-league golf. So-so course with some god-awful golfers (round avg time of about 5.5 hours for me), but you can’t find a round for cheaper in Orlando. Would recommend steering clear of the locals and course vets unless you’re feeling froggy, most that I’ve run into seem to be angry that they’re golfing??

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.

Rural Country Club Atmosphere

Lots of locals playing here. Very busy. Not my type of courses. Greens , fairways & tee boxes were ok. Cart paths very bumpy. Lots if bare spots in the rough. Priced right at $50 but I’m not going back.

It was Okay

The fairways were in good shape and the greens were hit or miss. Definitely nothing to cry about. I love the layout of the course, especially with all the elevation changes. The rough was rougher than what it should be. Had to pick and place my ball several times in the rough due to the poor rough conditions. But hey, you get what you pay for. Overall the course is in good shape. And for this time of the year to only pay $50, I’ll be back LOL

Fun course in good shape.

The course is in good shape, tee to green. The edges are burned out as most courses this time of year. It has different elevations and blind shots, water and pit hazards. Overall a fun course and different than the usual Florida flat course.

Fun Course

Came in with low expectations, but this place was really fun and challenging. Greens and fairways were in great condition. Great time and will definitely put this in my rotation of places to play going forward.

You Get What You Pay For

The course actually is in decent shape, BUT the rough is rougher than what it should be…there was sand and dirt everywhere in the rough. Had to find grass to place my ball on several times. The fairways were in decent shape although the grass was thin and the lies were tight. There were some bare spots in the fairways in some places but it wasn’t a lot. The greens were hit or miss with some being perfect and some having bare spots, but overall they were satisfactory. This is a member heavy course and we played behind 4 really slow members so make sure you tee off before 8 to beat the slow members on the course. I love the layout, especially with all the elevation changes and curved fairways. Just wish the course was maintained a little better and the members didn’t act as if they owned the course. Who knows, maybe they do LOL

Rating

I chose this course off of golf now with it having a rating of 4 .5. I do nit see how it was that high of a rating in my opinion. The course is nice just like most hometown courses. The quality of the course was mediocre. The difficulty was above average and was a challenge. It was rated a 4.5 and I do nit believe it was

Very disappointed for the price. Reviews online certainly were much better than what the course was. We quit after 9 holes.

Slow start

All was good except a 30 minute wait to tee off at mid-day. Based on the starter's "explanation" for the delay it sounded like a large group had started earlier in the morning - which likely means a number of players had not pre-booked.
