Rating 75.0

Carved from rolling orange groves and native, protected wetlands, Mystic Dunes Golf Club sits on the edge of the premier travel destination in the world yet offers a feeling of escape from it all. Located just two miles south of Walt Disney World, Mystic Dunes was designed by PGA Tour player and NBC golf analyst Gary Koch.

Tee-to-green, this golf course is stylish blend of classic strategic forms and thoroughly modern methods, but it is its greens that will make this course notable beyond whatever regional reputation it develops. Greens reminiscent of Augusta National, par-4 holes that rival in length to some of the longest seen in major championships, and a diabolical quartet of par 3s that seem to get more intense as the round progresses are just some of the features on this 7,012 yard, par-71 track. Mystic Dunes will leave a lasting impression on you.

Poor course conditions

I haven't play Mystic Dunes in a 3 or 4 years and was excited to come back and play the course, only to be greatly disappointed in the course's condition. The tee boxes were in extremely poor condition. The fairways and the rough had numerous areas with dead grass, or were completely bare. In addition, the greens were in poor condition. To charge $130 for a round of golf on a course with those conditions was incredibly disappointing. I will not be returning.

Challenging Greens and Waste Bunkers

We had an early tee time, so pace of play was excellent. Nice course with challenging greens and large waste bunkers. Would definitely recommend

Tee boxes are nothing but dirt. Fairways were not great. Greens were good. It has a nice layout, but it is NOT well maintained.

The starter Mo was abrasive and impatient. We had 15 minutes before our tee time and he wanted us to drive to No. 1 tee while guys were hitting huh?

Lay out was ok, fairways and rough were very scratchy. Tiered greens and slopes were on the excessive side…

First time back in several years, still a Great Venue for the $$

So many courses are still working hard to recover from the storms and this is no exception, yet the layout and overall condition continues to improve!! The Greens are soo challenging and truly an adventure that match the quality of the design and layout. Allow for the improvements that are occurring daily, and appreciate what it is and how great it will be again!!

Challenging course

The layout of the course can be challenging as there are many large bunkers. Overall the course is fun and the pace of game was on point. The greens and fairways were in great shape! The price is a little high but is comparable to other courses nearby. The restaurant has great food and drinks.

Rusty Swinger

All greens were good with maybe one exception.

Fairways on the front were dry and hard. Could have used some softening up. Back nine greens and fairways were in great shape. Kudos to the greens keepers.

Overall a good experience but a bit over priced.

Gimmicky and in rough shape.

Course felt beat up. divots and bare spots on fairways and greens. Bermuda was dormant, but this went beyond the season causing it.

Green complexes were gimmicky, huge slopes that were unfair. Pins in impossible positions. Balls would roll off green into bare spots and leave impossible chip shots.

A good course rewards good shot and penalizes bad shots. This just makes it random.

Twice, we had players putt 10 foot putts off the green into gullies.

I don't like to dump on a course for being hard, but this course is hard by being unfair.
