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.

Always a great track

Fairways, Bunkers and Staff always great.

Greens are less than pure. Seems like growing up or coming back. But rolls pure.

New Greens Coming!

Course to be closed starting 5/19 thru October to redo and expand the greens. They have started killing off the grass around the greens in preparation but did not cause any issues.

Get out there and play before it is closed for 5 months.

The course has a good layout, with some tough par 4 playing from the Orange tees.

Greens were not in good condition. Many greens were not running true with what appeared to be clover patches causing uneven surfaces. For a course that promotes itself as a top course that advertises they have hosted a LIV event, I expected far more.

They've lost the greens completely

Cannot believe that they charge full price for it in this condition. Massive patches of invasive grass on every green, they look like maps of earth, the secondary grass is over a 1/4" taller than the actual green and makes putting a joke. Far worse than if punched and they're charging full price. Site says they are closing in may for a green overhaul, but they should have done in 2 months ago. Shame on OCN for not informing people and charging full price.

Can’t Wait to Play This Course Again

The whole experience was positive. Checkin was smooth, practice facilities were great, course was in top condition. We played 18 on Crooked Cat, had a delicious lunch in the bar and then walked 9 at The Tooth course. Overall a fantastic day of golf!
