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.

NOTE: The pro shop staff are great and knowledgeable about the course, very helpful. The starter and bag assistance is an active hindrance to this place. No idea when to send people off, breaking and pairing groups at random, delaying players by several tee times with a slower group in front....it makes no sense.

For having a hurricane pass through, the course is still in decent shape, some greens definitely need repairs but I am not faulting them for the storms.

Great Course

For the money this is a great place to play. The biggest negative is the pace of play. We were the 2nd group out and after 50 minutes we were just finishing our 2nd hole. The first group out had know concept of pace of play and that they were holding up the entire course. I called the pro shop and was told they were only 10 minutes behind. We never saw a ranger or anyone from the pro shop. The round took almost 5.5 hours.

Difficulty level is advanced

The greens are an extreme challenge, depending upon pin placement. Your overall game has to be intermediate Level to enjoy it. lots of bunkers that look like the Sahara desert. All facilities are top-notch, staff is extremely friendly. Golf carts have touchscreens that include music. I highly recommend this course to anyone and everyone.

Great course!

Except for a few of the pin placements, everything was absolutely amazing. They have done a great job maintaining the property. The greens were the best. I'd seen them in a long time. I highly recommend this course

Nice layout

Greens were sandy due to recent aeration so can't comment on them. Really liked the layout. No 2 holes alike.

Glad Hilton Took it Over!

I have seen some improvements on the course. Greens, tee boxes, and fairways are much better. That said, very slow greens, especially putting up hill, and some fairways needed help. Overall, a significant improvement from prior conditions. Continue the good work, trim those greens, work on some fairways and you'll be there. Will be back as it improves.

Stunning course near Disney!

Mystic Dunes Golf Club, nestled between Celebration / Reunion / Championsgate on the southwest side of sunny Orlando, Florida is a 4 ½ star rated, 72-par Hilton Resorts course. The course was designed by Champions Tour Player and NBC Golf Analyst, Gary Koch and offers players two distinctly different but equally challenging and enjoyable nines.

Enjoy the 80-foot elevation changes, rolling sand dunes, beautiful oaks, and vast wetlands areas in this gated 600 acre tract of conservancy land. The “low country” style front nine is reminiscent of classic Carolina courses, meandering through native wetlands and marsh areas, bordering oak and cypress forests. The back nine features characteristics of a British Isles links course, with extensive perimeter mounding, pot bunkers, and lush, rolling fairways. Highly Recommended!!

Thete was a lot of rain in the days leading up to the day I played. Things were pretty wet but didnt do cart path only.

The only disappointing thing was the speed of the greens. Even after the dew dried up they were slow. Well most were slow, every once in a while you would play for very slow and the green was faster so I putted well past the hole. Would have had a decent score but I had many 3 puts.

Didnt look like they had mowed them in a couple of days. I used to play this course all the time years ago and it was both fun and a challenge. This trip I left frustrated by the greens. I have a USDA handicap of 3.4 currently.

Not so great

I read some recent reviews and they raved about the 'condition ' of the course. Overall it was fair. Greens were plugged and top dressed 10 days ago so they were in recovery mode. I get it. BUT the fairways and tees were poor. Bare spots and weeds and THIN fairway grass. Totally disappointed!
