About

Type Public
Par 71
Length 7012 yards
Slope 145
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.

Good course great value

We played 3-1-23. Course is in good shape. Tee’s fairways, and collars are over seeded. Greens are not but are rolling good and true. Few greens are bumpy on the front but overall great layout and good experience.

Not worth the money

The layout of the course was nice. The course was dry and need of water. Tee boxes were worn out from the many divots. Some Parts of the fairways were plain dirt. Greens were bumpy and patches of grass growing in different places making it hard to putt. Not worth the money.

Average Course

The layout of the course was nice. The course was in need of water. The fairways were dry. The greens were bumpy with patches of grass grooming In many areas of the green making it impossible to putt. The tee boxes were fullb on f divots. For the money they charge yo expected a better course. Definitely not worth the money.

Terrible condition

This course is in bad shape. $100 is way too much. Maybe $50 would be acceptable? Greens full of weeds that were slightly higher than grass so ball bounces along. Many areas on fairways are dirt only. Starter told us everywhere on course is lift and place. Course is supposed to be overhauled in May so it looks like they have stopped taking care of it.

Mystic Over delivered

The course has definitely seen better days but the track remains more than playable. Tees fairways and greens are in ok shape, amongst the beautiful rolling hills. Looking forward to playing again at the end of the week, we will definitely be back to visit again. Some of these reviews are horribly dramatic and I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll be back!

Mystic Dunes Mystery

It's a mystery to me how the owners of this golf course could justify charging the rates to play that they do. We paid $75 each for our threesome and were hoping we got a great deal.

Boy were we fooled, the course condition were awful with none to little grass on the tees and fairways. If you miss the fairway forget it, you are in scrub or in sand areas that are not bunkers. When you get to the greens they are probably the worst I have ever played, it felt like you had to putt through cabbage heads with the amount of weeds on them.

The starter was very friendly but warned us before teeing off the course conditions were no better tan fair. Guess as an employee he couldn't say they were bad or else be fired. Played on a Saturday and no refreshment cart on the front nine, stopped at restaurant at the turn and the bartender appeared like she didn't want to be there and the brat I ordered must have been sitting in warm water since breakfast.

I wouldn't recommend this course for any level player as it is way overpriced and in terrible condition.

Not a good value

The course has been let go as it will be completely redone in May. If we only paid $50 it may have been worth it. Greens were what I would expect the fairways to be like and the fairways were nonexistent. Simply put, the course looked unkept.

I have high expectations for the redo that will start in May. The facilities are nice and the staff is friendly so they have a good foundation to work with, just need a course that meets some basic expectations.

What a Windy Windy Day

The winds were blowing making the course very challenging. The tees and fairways are decent but overall the roughs and other areas are dormant and a variety of grasses not looking great. To avoid this, hit the ball straight then the course is more than playable. The greens for the most part were rolling pretty good. Heard they are redoing the course soon. Let’s go Hilton!

Dead grass everywhere

Paid full price for dead greens. I can understand fairways and tee decks but not greens. Staff mentioned course will close to renovate all the greens but still the full $109. Tough hit to the wallet during vacation.

Don’t waste the money

Played this course today and wow from start to finish this was the worst experience I’ve had in Florida , course unplayable for the most part, greens felt like I was playing plinko , the starter was great and the cart girl super nice but everyone else from dropping bags to checking in terrible customer service and range balls, good luck, they might ask you to go out into the field and pick up your own balls to practice with or better yet wait until you play the 10th hole with about 60 range balls scattered across the fairway and hope you don’t hit your tee shot into them , will never play this course again even if it was $20 I’d pass , waste of time and money

Sad Don’t do it

I would not waste your time nor money. I been wanting to play this golf course for many years but it’s alway been expensive. This year I broke down and had saved to play this one as one of my high end courses wow was I wrong. Someone should call the police for want they are doing their. Charging that kind of money and having the worst golf course I have ever experienced here in Florida. In fact anywhere in Canada or South Carolina North Carolina. All the bad reviews are true wish I saw them before I went.

I’ll play Mystic again- Conditions improved

Course has a very good layout, undulating fairways, doglegs, water, etc. This course was one of my favorites. It was neglected for a while but new management has been working to improve conditions. Course is better than it was late last year. Fairways are green and putting greens are rolling better. Id play again and hope course conditions will more.

Nice layout, garbage conditions

Paid over 100 to play this course and the greens were awful, dead spots and covered with weeds and or different types of grasses. Sand traps full of weeds, tee boxes were bare and fairways were just barely playable. Very disappointing for the cost.

Don't bother playing this course

This course should have been $39 not $109. Simply not worth playing. I was told it was closing in May of this year (2023) to do improvements. Needs them badly.

Horrible conditions

If they had of charged me 40 dollars I would have been ok with it. The greens are in absolutely horrible condition. We paid 120 dollars when there are much better courses charging the same price. We we’re not even given a heads up that the course was in such bad shape. Used to be such a great track.

Mystic dunes review

. I came up from the keys and played with some lady friends who live in this area. This is the third time we have included this course in our visit to this area. Conditions on this course are improving each time we visit. The staff was very nice to us. We stayed for lunch afterwards and enjoyed our time at this course. We are planning another trip soon and will definitely include this course !
