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.

Excellent course

I have played this course multiple times and it has always been excellent condition. Green’s were running well fairways were in good shape and still some good rough. Got a good value with the hot deal and my tee credit which made the round a great value also.

Overbooked. It took two hours and 55 minutes to play nine holes. At that pace, I would’ve finished 30 minutes after sunset, so I only played nine holes. They refused to give me any discount, even on a future time because I booked through golf now.

One of the best courses I havebever played.

Very interesting course layout. Tough greens geared by several layers of sand trap and grass bunkers. Fun to play each hole. Requires careful ball layups to score. Fairway is well kept but undulating. No easy lies anywhere.

Throughly enjoyed the round here. Will definitely come back to play here.

Exciting and challenging course to test your golf skill

Played the Crooked Cat. The course layout is challenging as the fairways are undulating and both grass and sand traps at key positions. The greens are well guarded by sand traps and grass bunkers all around. Exciting and challenging layout as compared to most resort golf courses in Orlando. Both fairway and greens are well maintained. Only issue was that on the back nine there was a group event earlier and the golfers a few flights Ahearn of us were very slow. Could see them wondering around the rough on every hole. Since they were in a group event the course marshal couldn't push them faster and ended up about 15mins slow play. I would love to come back and also play the panther course.

I only played nine holes because that took two hours and 52 minutes. At that rate of time we would’ve finished half an hour after sunset. No Rangers to speed play. They would not give me any financial consideration, even for future play, because I booked with golf now. A waste of my money.

Excellent condition.

Had an excellent time. Fairways are pristine. The bad reviews of the greens are overstated. Any “burned out” areas were minimal and still rolled true. Paid $70 for the hot deal. Well worth the money.

Good course in the neighbor hood

The course was in excellent condition, it rained some but we were able to complete the course. The front nine was pretty easy, but the we ran into the back nine and I blew up a few of the holes. Enjoyed the play and would definitely play again soon, especially with a hot deal.

Nice Round

Played Crook Cat and just looked around at its beauty. The fairways and greens were perfect, i think i finally played from the correct tees (White) shot a 74. 2 weeks earlier played Green tees and shot 96. To say this is my favorite course would be an understatement. If you get an opportunity do your self a favor and play both 18's.
