Rating 76.0

The Crooked Cat Course is one of two 18-hole regulation courses at the Orange County National Golf Center and Lodge. The facility is also home to a nine-hole executive course. The Crooked Cat Course is a challenge with dramatic elevation changes and rolling fairways that are framed with mounding. The golf course has a links-style design with large, contoured greens and wide landing areas. Water hazards and several bunkers come into play throughout. There are also trees and native heather present on the course for a naturally beautiful atmosphere. Orange County National's Crooked Cat Course is favored among low handicappers due to its length and difficulty.

Great day

Everything was great from the cart guys to the starter as well as the course. It was cart path only but we got a mail a couple of days before giving us the chance to change if we wanted .

Greens were in great shape.

What a course!

My second time playing there, but at crooked cat this time. Much easier than panther lake. Crooked at had an awesome layout, fun but challenging for sure. Highly recommend this to anyone. The price is up there for a non-resident, but they do host PGA and LIV events, so i get that. Will be coming back.

One of my favorite courses in Florida

This is the second time I've played at Crooked Cat. This course is deceivingly tough, because it looks like it's pretty wide open, but when you get to the crux of it, you realize it's pretty tough. The greens rolled much faster than the practice greens. The course plays pretty long, the wind seemed to be against in most of the holes. The conditions tee to green were superb. The practice facilities are ginormous, especially that driving range! This is my favorite course in Orlando, and one of my favorites in the state of Florida. There's a really good reason why the Q-School finals are here, and why LIV plays here.

Crooked Cat. Must play

We’ve played this course probably 15 times and it never fails to disappoint. Every staff member is friendly and helpful. Course was a in excellent shap. Greens read true and run about 10 on the scale. Love that. Hate to bang putt. Overall it was 6 stars.

Great Layout

First time playing Crooked Cat. Greens in great shape! Unusual high amount of brown spots in the fairways with dry spots throughout. Staff was friendly at the bag drop, but starter at 1st hole was rude and didn’t care if I was there or not. On personal cell phone the whole time. I would recommend this course for anyone, beginner or low handicaper,
